"Extremely disappointed. He asked what kind of mower I had, and described it as shown above; specifically, it has a 5.5-horsepower engine. Despite the presence of a large Briggs and Stratton sign outside the location, I was told "we don't work on Craftsman mowers anymore." I asked him when that started, and he said, "oh, about five years ago." Considering this is a Toro dealer, I guess they make more money selling new Toros than they do repairing old Craftsman mowers. It's a good thing I didn't bring the mower with me, as I would have had to lug it back into the storage shed."

Lawn Tool Repair questions, answered by experts

If you are a skilled DIYer with experience, you can do certain lawn mower repairs yourself. However, if you’ve never worked on a lawn mower before or if your mower needs extensive repairs, it’s best to let a skilled lawn mower technician work on your machine. While it might be a little more expensive due to the cost of labor, nothing beats knowing that the job was done successfully (and often with warranties). 

Before your lawn mower quits working entirely, it’ll likely give you some signs of wear and tear that indicate a repair is needed. Signs that you might need repairs to your lawn mower include: 

  • Oil leaks

  • Vibrating engine

  • Smoking exhaust 

  • Increase in time to mow

  • Unusual noises

  • Increase in gas consumption

You need to change your spark plugs regularly. It is recommended that your spark plugs should be checked and changed after every 25 hours of use.

Lawn mower repairs typically range from $40 to $90, with most people spending right around $60. However, your final total will depend on the type of lawn mower you have, the repair needed, and part availability. 

Lawnmowers require seasonal maintenance to continue working correctly. With routine maintenance, you can extend its life to the fullest, which is around 10 years for push mowers and 5-8 years for riding mowers. To keep your lawn mower working correctly, you’ll want to take the following steps at least once a year:

  • Replace the spark plug

  • Change the oil

  • Drain the fuel tank

  • Clean the mowing deck (ideally, after every mow)

  • Replace the air filter

  • Check the carburetor

  • Sharpen the blades

  • Fog the engine

  • Check the tires
