I have been using Gilley's for quite a few years and I have tried other small engine repair places in the county and none compare to Gilley's service. Gilley is pretty much a one man show, though occasionally he'll have a couple guys that help him out.
His pricing is average or possibly just a notch higher but his work is superb. He is as honest as they come and usually gives you a price before doing the job. He has never upped a price on me but if he runs into an unforeseen issue that will increase the fee, he will call before moving forward. Plus he puts a 6-month warranty on all his work.
I have Gilley do all my routine maintenance on all my equipment and any other work needed. He has even replaced an entire engine for my riding mower that had a manufactured defect and the manufacturer paid him. He took it upon himself to deal with them so I wouldn't have to.
Recently, I took something to him for him to fix and he told me it would cost more to fix than to buy a new one. He turned it away instead of being paid, that's genuine honesty. He also prefers to have things fixed the same day so I suggest getting your equipment to him early.
He also has items for sale, new and used, so if your looking for something with a small engine but don't have a big budget, I'd go see him first.
If you give Gilley's a try, I'm sure he'll become your go to as well.
Ps. He has a Pepsi vendor sitting outside his business where the 20oz bottle is only $1.00. That's gotta be good for business, Lol. read more
