"Terrible company. Possibly a scam. They attempted to sell me a part they didn't even have, and after waiting patiently for OVER A MONTH, I canceled my order. When calling them to confirm, they told me they never had the part to sell to me. What a joke!"

"First visit to this shop. I, owner being 69 yrs. old, had to remove my 21”lawnmower from my car using metal ramps provided by this shop as they did not provide any physical assistance. I replaced spark plug and oil filter prior to taking my lawnmower to Pat’s outdoor equipment. paid 40.00 mandatory down payment. Called week later and informed that the spark plug, oil filter had to be replaced and carburetor needed cleaning. Asked if they had correct mower as I had replaced the spark plug and oil filter less than 2 weeks ago myself. Assured correct mower. Asked how that could be, no answer. Requested another mechanic evaluate my mower which was done. Same result. I requested what the fee would be to clean carburetor. Total after 40.00 down payment was $99.07. Total with down payment 139.07. With replacing spark plug and oil filter $167.89. I declined further service. Went across the street to Zimmerman’s Ace Hardware, evaluated, carburetor clogged, old fuel drained and replaced, drained overfilled oil. Total fee $ 87.95. So dishonest. Do not go to Pat’s."

Lawn Tool Repair questions, answered by experts

Regular oil changes, blade sharpening, fuel system cleaning, and air filter replacements help extend mower lifespan.

Yes, you can tip a lawn mower on its side as long as you turn it with the carburetor side upwards. This prevents oil from leaking into the carburetor and reducing performance. You can also tip the mower backward as long as it's stable while you're working on the deck or blades for safety.

If you keep it clean and sharp, your reel mower should last for about 10-20 years. In comparison, the lifespan of most self-propelled lawn mowers is about half as long as that.

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). 

A standard home lawn mower with sharp blades can handle a thin layer of leaves without issue. You may need to make a couple of passes within several days to mulch leaves down, but your mower shouldn’t struggle. If your mower comes with a mulching kit, like an attachment to blow leaves out the side, that’s a good sign it’s ready for fall leaves. Set your mower to the highest or near-highest height for this project so it focuses on the leaves rather than the grass below.
