    I had a tree on my property that was cut while this company was doing work in my next-door…read moreneighbor's yard. The tree was cut during that process, and there did not appear to be active oversight of the crew at that moment. My neighbors did not request that my tree was cut, as they were not even aware it was being cut. Roman did not come to us to speak with us or ask permission before the tree on our property was cut. After noticing the issue, I spoke directly with the foreman, Roman. During that conversation, I was given several different explanations for why the cutting was not a concern. What was most upsetting to me was not only that my tree was cut while work was being done on another property, but the way my concerns were handled afterward. The situation was repeatedly minimized and I was told things like it "would grow back" and that I "had more privacy elsewhere in the yard." His responses felt unprofessional, and it felt like my concerns were not taken seriously. Instead of feeling heard, I felt as though I shouldn't be as upset as I was. After I walked away, I was also told by my husband that Roman referenced a past situation involving a property line dispute and court involvement. I can't speak to that situation, but it added to my confusion about why it was brought up in relation to my concerns.

    Had an excellent experience at the Homer Glen Shorewood Home & Auto location, thanks to Chris in…read morethe service department. I brought in an old Craftsman snowblower from the early 1990s that needed big time attention. Chris gave me a very reasonable estimate upfront and was honest about the challenge of finding discontinued parts for a machine that's 32-33 years old. I dropped it off the day before Thanksgiving 2025 -- and naturally, a heavy snowstorm hit that weekend on a Saturday, selling out every available snowblower with an electric starter under $1,200. Chris was patient and kept the estimate open while I sourced discontinued parts from eBay (electric starter, housing, paddles, and more). We both knew it would take time, and he never rushed the process. Once all the parts arrived -- including an idler pulley that thankfully is still being made and purchased from Shorewood Home & Auto -- the team completed the repair. The snowblower now runs better than it has in at least 15 years. This wasn't my first great experience with Chris and Joe in service. About three years ago, they repaired an Echo leaf vacuum/shredder that another shop couldn't fix correctly. Their work saved me hours of raking leaves and earned my trust. And a shout‑out to Monica in parts as well -- she helped me source a new front‑wheel‑drive transmission for a 20 year‑old Craftsman lawnmower back in August 2024, which I installed myself. Steve in Sales is also helpful if you are looking for new equipment. Everyone at Shorewood Home & Auto in Homer Glen consistently delivers excellent service, honest communication, and real expertise -- especially with older equipment that many places won't touch or repair correctly. Thank you Chris for your patience, expertise and knowledge; much appreciated. Please keep up the outstanding work. You've earned my business.

    I got cheated. I purchased and installed a replacement battery from this shop for my Toro walk…read morebehind mower. They charged about $80 for the battery. It lasted only one year. I called and asked about the warranty on this battery and I was told by Alex (service department) they only offer a "90 day warranty on the batteries". Alex also said "many customers buy a new battery every year". I was shocked. The original battery on this mower (I bought new from this shop) lasted about 10 years. So I ask: if the original battery lasted 10 years and I buy a replacement that only lasts one year, was this new battery an "OEM replacement" or a knock off?? Keep reading: I decided to look on Amazon for a replacement. They have the identical battery for $20 delivered and it has a 1 year warranty! So, It seems this business is selling knock off parts as OEM (original equipment manufacturer) replacement parts and charging 4 times more for that part. Shame on Shorewood Home & Auto. Now I know why their Yelp rating is so low!! I can deal with rude and disrespectful employees at this business -- I'm use to it -- but I will not pay for an OEM part and get a cheap knock off for my money. I've literally spent thousands with this company through the past several years and to be sold garbage and to be charged excessive for this garbage is inexcusable.
