Boy is this guy and honest Joe. He'll professionally diagnose the issue. Fortunately my issue was…read morea simple fix costing just a few bucks and he just charged me a bit of time and just a few bucks for the part. He didn't make much money off of me, but he earned my business for life. Other guys would have made up something else to gouge the bill, but Dustin is an honest man. He won't charge you for something you don't need! I recommend him to everyone.

Beware of D&M Small Engine Repair LLC & the owner Dustin Ables…read more I'm making this post in an effort to hopefully save someone money and time by avoiding doing business with a local company that I hired to repair my mower and totally botched the repair job and he won't stand behind his work. I hired Dustin Ables, he owns D&M mower repair located in Sharpsville. My riding mower had noise coming from one of the arbor / spindles. He replaced that whole arbor / spindle assembly with a "replacement" part. One that was definitely wrong for my mower. It failed and started making noise. At that point I decided to look into his repair. I found that the whole assembly that he installed wasn't even close to what the OEM part was. There is 3 inches in height difference alone between the arbor / spindle he installed and the one I had to purchase to replace it that was an OEM assembly thru Simplicity. It took a few trips to the simplicity dealer to get the mess figured out but it's finally fixed after replacing the correct parts. When I was doing the repair I also found that he rigged the pulley on the top of the spindle and it had came loose and it was causing the noise that alerted me that the spindle he replaced was not the correct part. Also while I was taking the spindle apart that he installed I found that he didn't even put any grease in it and I found a piece of a greasy rag inside the assembly. Pic of this is posted too. He charged me 261.85 for the botched repair. Over the past few weeks I tried several times to reach him via phone, text and instant messenger but he will not respond to any of my messages. He knows he botched this repair and will not stand good for his work. Dustin also did one previous repair on a bracket on the same mower just a few days prior which should've been my warning not to use him again. He told me that the bracket that was broken is not available anymore and he would reinforce the broken one and weld it back together. It broke within a couple of strips of mowing and he had to come and take the bracket off again and re-weld it. There was no reinforcement added (as he told me he would do) at all and his weld was obviously subpar and didn't hold. I found an OEM bracket online thru parts tree as well as one of the local Simplicity dealer for just under $11. He charged me $140 for this repair (which included putting grease in the original spindle that initially failed. I'm having my doubts he even greased it as he said he did. After the second time he "fixed" this bracket it loosened up and needed further attention. I repaired it myself as well. Thru conducting business with Dustin I have found that he is obviously not very good at repairing lawn equipment and is also not a very honest individual and is definitely not a good business man. I highly recommend everyone to avoid D&M if you're looking for someone to do repair work on your lawn equipment. I have tried SEVERAL times to communicate with him and he will not answer phone calls, text or messages thru messenger. Dustin had plenty of time to make this right with me and he failed to do so. Do yourself a favor and use a reputable dealer.

We brought in our mower that was 2 months out of warranty. It wouldn't start (it had a guaranteed…read moreto start system). We were told the carburetor was clogged. We paid for the repair and tune up, and when we got it back, it was extremely loud, apparently, during the repair he had punctured the muffler. I asked if he would fix it, but he wanted to charge extra to fix the muffler. This was just a month outside of the warranty, and with it. Still being a pretty new lawnmower we were expecting it to be back to new condition after repair Over the summer, it continued to struggle to start, but it would start. Now about six months after the repair, it's not starting, the muffler is still loud and shot, and it almost feels like more damage was done to the lawnmower than was repaired. It looks like we need to pay to get it fixed again, but at this point, we're wondering if we should just buy a new one because of all of the extra damage. Even with the noise canceling headphones the damaged muffler is so loud that it makes it hard to mow having autism spectrum disorder. A part of me has wondered if I even got the right lawn mower back. I'm pretty sure I did, but there were new issues after the repair that didn't exist before.

My walk behind lawn mower had stopped working, and wouldn't start, no matter what I did. I saw…read moregreat reviews for Neighborhood Lawnmower Repair and decided to give them a try. I made the 30 minute drive with my mower to the repair shop. The man I dropped off the lawnmower to was friendly, knowledgeable, and provided me a time frame of at least 3 weeks, which was perfectly understandable. He gave me an estimate of $127-187, mainly from the tune up. He said he would contact me before he added on any parts, which would raise the price. 30 days had passed, and I had left a few messages with him (about day 26-30). Unfortunately, I did not receive a return call. Day 40 arrived and I was getting worried because I could not reach someone at Neighborhood Lawnmower Repair. By this time, I had payed a business to service our lawn about 3-4 times. I called the repair shop and finally received a call back. I was told the mower had received a tune-up and a new carburetor. I did not receive a call about the added part, which would have helped in deciding whether to keep the mower or not. I stopped by to get the mower, and when he tested it, it did work. He apologized, I accepted and left. Although I disliked wasting time and fuel, I also realized he could have just let me leave with a non-functioning lawn mower. The next week, he told me what he did to get it running again, and it would be ready for pick up. I returned and he started up the mower for me. It worked, sounded good and was ready for mowing. That's when I received the hardest hit...$222 and change. That was a HUGE hit, especially when I wasn't informed it would be that high. I payed, took my mower and went on my way. I had did the math: The repair's total was $222 + $180 for lawn service, which equals $402...the price of a good electric mower. The good: Neighborhood Lawn Care knows how to repair, tune-up and recommend lawn mowers. They are an honest company, when it comes to releasing a working/repaired mower. They could have let me leave with a non working mower the first time, but didn't. The bad: Neighborhood Lawn Care suffers from poor communication with customers regarding almost every step of the process. I understand business can be overwhelming, especially when there is a lot to work on. However, good communication will keep people coming back. I didn't know what was going on with my mower for 40 days -- no call and couldn't reach anyone. I was told one price as a variable estimate, only to have a sizably large price increase. When I asked for a possible discount for the non-communication, wasted trip, extremely long wait and sticker shock, I was told that was a discounted price. If you have the time to wait over a month with no communication and the large amount of money to spend on your mower, this is the place for you. They do know how to fix mowers. However, (for me), this just wasn't worth the wasted time, fuel and money.

I am very unhappy with the service I received!!! My mower finally came home…read more after 15 days and it is missing screws and nuts. They said the problem was water in the fuel line but...the reason I called them was the mower would not do anything when engaging the key nothing, now I might be an older woman but... I do KNOW that even without getting gas it would still turn over. I had just bought the mower off market place and it was almost out of gas So I took my new gas can that I use for my push mower and filled it up and it ran fine cut the entire yard then when trying to restart it would do nothing. The man that returned the mower said at one point after the mower was on the trailer to return to me that it would not start would not even turn over so he had to call the shop or someone and from there the story is very vague, not even sure he finished it I can remember he said it had plastic gas tank ..not sure what that has to do with anything. Now I have to hold back on the lever that lowers the deck to make sure starts. Geez I want all my parts returned and put back on the mower and this situation corrected. If you read the other reviews this happens often with missing screws and long return times. I am going to dispute the charge with credit card company till this is corrected. ++++++UPDATE++++++UPDATE+++++UPDATE OK I called Schmucker and they said they wanted to make things right, so they came and picked up the mower again on a Friday They returned it yesterday, Wednesday with all the screws and bolts in place and I no longer have to hold anything to get it to start Just turn the key and walah!! They made things right and I wanted to let everyone know that everyone makes mistakes but it takes a Good Person and business to accept and correct it. I would call them again if needed .
