If you need an engine repaired by somebody who actually knows how to repair engines, this is the…read moreguy. Think the fellow who your Dad used to take the lawnmower, tiller, etc. to for spring tune ups and actual repairs. The guy who fixed the things you thought were finished...back when people actually used to repair things rather than throw them away. OK, probably your Grandpa' generation at this point since skill like this is fading. This fellow (Brad) does not rely upon a check engine light and a computer code to tell him what is wrong (unlike my Nissan Dealer!). This fellow knows how to trouble shoot engines the old-fashioned way and actually repair them. I took a Troybilt tiller to him that had previously been "repaired" by a "Troybilt authorized service center" over in Lockport. Those guys had the machine for three months, could not even get all the major bolts back into the machine (something that I did not learn until I tried to till up the garden), and charged me three times what Hamilton's charged me...and it never did run once I got it home. Hamilton's had the machine for about a week and a half (I told him there was no rush) and it now runs PERFECTLY. He even substituted in a new carburetor cup (since mine was heavily corroded by fuel varnish) from another, identical surplus engine that he had in stock...free of charge. Yes. He has a lot of old parts, engines, etc. IN STOCK because this is a REAL repair shop that has probably been in business since about 1920 (just kidding, Brad is not that old). I HIGHLY recommend Hamilton's Small Engine Repair. Go to him because he is a small business owner. Go to him because he KNOWS what he is doing. The timing of the repair was right. The price for the repair was right. Most importantly, the tiller works (in time for spring tilling of the garden) and now I don't have to keep renting one from Home Depot when I own one! Actually, kudos go to the fellows in the Home Depot rental department for pointing me in the direction of Hamilton's Small Engine Repair. Now if he only did cars!

*UPDATE* So, we sent out our dryers to the other place…read more We sent out the one we brought into Lockport Vacuum last. We got a call that it was ready yesterday. There he said that there was nothing wrong with the motors, in fact they were the right motors for that dog dryer. Unlike what Lockport tried telling us. Also, I knew I brought that dryer to Lockport Vacuum in the past for servicing, and the guy told me that I definitely did not, buy in fact I did. The place I took it to now, told me that whomever serviced the dryer in the past, put the wrong carbons in it, that they were too big, and that they just jammed them in there. To top it off they only charged me $108 to fix it, unlike the $348 that Lockport Vacuum wanted. I will not be using Lockport Vacuum for anything ever again.

I took my Oreck XL21 for an annual tune up to this shop and told him the locking mechanism that…read morekeeps the vacuum stay up is not working. Other than that the vacuum cleaner is working fine. He charged me $87 to do the basic tune up and told me the top cover needs to be replaced to keep the vacuum stay up which will cost $50. I ended up paying $87 for the tune up because he didn't have the top cover to install. When I got home I tried to use the vacuum and found out that he basically didn't do anything other than throw in a new belt which was not even placed on the roller and a new roller (retail price together $12). He didn't even bother to put in a new bag or wipe down the dirt. In fact I don't think he even open the base plate. The Annual tune up is supposed to be free from Oreck for XL21 but they closed down all their dealers near us. I was willing to pay because I thought he will do the right thing. In fact I was thinking about buying another Oreck from him. Very disappointed. Let us see how far his dishonesty will take him.
