I dropped my mower off at 2:30 pm and by 5:30 the same day Pete had called to say it was finished. When I picked up the mower Pete had me start it and showed me the service he performed. I loved the fact that he had all the parts on site and that he took care of the entire machine, not just the blade and oil. Great service!

On Saturday my son ran over a pruning tool that someone threw onto the lawn.The mower would not keep running. I called Pete the next day(Sunday) and he asked if I could bring the mower in that day. He finished the job in two hours! WOW! He also told me my mower blade was as dull as the back of a butter knife. LOL! Pete did a great job and I would highly recommend him to anyone. Great price as well. He definitely beats the bigger companies as far as getting my mower in to get fixed. I would usually have to wait 3 to 7 days to get may mower worked on. Pete knows his stuff!

It went great. It was easy to get a hold of him. Left a voice mail, he got back to me quickly. He was available to meet me when I dropped it off. If he wasn't there, it would've been fine to drop it off in back of his house/workshop. He told me he had an emergency commercial job that he got called to do, so would it be alright if he got it back to me in the next couple of days. I said no problem. turns out, he was able to get it done by the end of my work day and get it back to me. he had me start it up before I took it home. He works fast, he knows lawnmowers. I would totally recommend him to a friend.

I had an excellent experience taking my non-starting lawn mower to Pete. He runs his business out of the garage in back of his home on Beacon Hill. I called him on a Saturday morning, took the mower in that morning and he had it fixed by the end of the day. Pete is a friendly guy who got my mower running with the first pull of the cord. The fee was reasonable; $68 included all parts, labor, and tax for a full tune-up. He gave me a detailed invoice. The turn-around time was faster than I had expected. I'd give him an A+.

I called around to a bunch of places. The ones that appeared to be good all said it would take a week or two to get my lawn mower fixed, but my dandelion problem needed to be addressed more immediately. I dropped it off one evening and picked it up, running perfectly, the next. Pete works out of his house. He doesn't have regular hours, but he's very reachable by phone, and the whole process was more convenient for me than it would have been if I had gone to a shop open 7 days a week.
