We looked up small engine repair in our area when our snowblower stopped working suddenly. We found…read moreTrue Repair through Yelp and reached out. We had a reply back within an hour and had arranged for them to come pick it up that afternoon. Keep in mind this is just before a snowstorm and they also a plowing service so they were busy. They had it repaired and brought back to us in less than 48 hours and just before another snowstorm coming this weekend. We would highly recommend them and we will be contacting them just before spring to have our lawnmower service.

Bought a tractor he delivered it and told me he went through it oil, plugs, filters etc. I told him I needed it for snow he told me it runs great and in great condition any problems let him know. I called the local mower shop to have them check it out on 4/24/26 the day after I bought it. He couldn't fit me until 2 weeks later, 2 weeks ( so just about 4 weeks now not quite) the local guy calls me to tell me the tractor was in a fire, the engine swapped out and there is water in the engine oil.Not good so I called True who had several responses, I must have left it out in the rain, he doesn't know anything about it, it is an As is sale. He proceeded to send me a text and wanted to talk to my local guy.my local guy wants nothing to do with him feels he gives small engine repair guys a bad reputation. i wanted him to work with me but he just did want to be accountable and play the blame game.

The first was knee deep in conversation, as he answered all his questions, next was a pickup of something he'd finished, and one was a spontaneous "Can you fix this, I was right in the middle of ...", which he fixed in about 5 minutes with a part salvaged from another he kept for salvage purpose. Then there was me at the end of the line, it was 5 minutes past closing, with a mower someone else had deemed in need of major overhaul advising I buy a new one. In under 2 minutes, he'd tightened a cable, and the machine was running good as new. As someone else put it, "he saved me hundreds of dollars", and more importantly to me, hours upon hours of shopping for replacement, for no good reason.

Quick response and excellent, FAST service. Pickup/delivery was helpful as well. Thanks!read more

I needed my mower started after the winter and not running all the gas out. Chris' pick the mower…read moreup and took it to get it started. After getting the mower started they proceeded to do a full Spring service without asking and charged me over $450. I get the mower back and after a week the mower won't start, my fault for not thinking of the battery, but since I got an almost $500 service I thought the battery was checked. They came and got it and the battery was shot, I could walk to the business from my house and they charged me $90 to bring it there and look for 5 minutes to tell me the battery was shot and would not budge on it after they did a BS service and not checking the battery. Shame on me for not double checking their work after they brought it back. They said it started so I guess that was good enough. I will never use them again and hope others read these.

I finally went to the store it was locked so I put a note in the door telling him to call me. When all said and done cost me 643 dollars for 2 belts. He even charge 10.95 to put some oil in mower. I will never go back there and will never recommend his business again. My mower is probably only worth 500.00 0 stars

I had a very disappointing experience with Rotti's…read more I called ahead to ask about a tune-up for my snow blower, which is only four years old and hadn't been used for the past two seasons. I was quoted around $200. I specifically asked about carburetor work and was told that if anything additional work was needed, I would be called for approval before any work was done. I dropped the snow blower off on 1/21, knowing a storm was coming and that it might not be ready right away. When I called to check the status, I was told it was done and just needed a manager's sign-off. When I called back to ask about the total cost, I was shocked to be told the bill was $365. I was then informed that the carburetor had been rebuilt--without my approval. When I questioned why no one called me first, I was told they "assumed" I would want it running. While of course I want it running, I should've been called first to go over pricing. The person I spoke with showed little concern and initially brushed me off, saying they were too busy. I was disconnected while waiting, had to call back, and explain everything again. Eventually they took $50 off, which I appreciate, but this should never have happened in the first place. This is poor business practice. Just like with a car, if additional work is needed beyond the original estimate, you call the customer for approval, you don't just do the work and send a much higher bill. I will not be returning, and I will make sure others I know are aware of this experience.

I called on February 21st, 2026 looking for a friction disc drive part for my 13-year old Ariens…read moreDeluxe 28 snow blower just before a huge blizzard was forecast to hit on February22nd through the 23rd. They asked for my model # and serial # and said they had the part but closed at 2:00PM and it was 1:53 PM. They had the part but they were closing in 7 minutes and I was 15 minutes away. The gentleman asked if it was okay if he left the part outside in a certain location so I could pick it up after paying for it over the phone and of course I said absolutely. He even took a picture of it so I could easily find it. I paid for it, drove down and picked it up. This small business saved my back and butt and allowed me to get my machine repaired and ready for this storm just in time. I actually drove to their Lancaster location by accident first not realizing they have two locations and I saw tons of Ariens snow blowers there. If anyone needs parts locally or needs new or used equipment then I would check this place out first before going to the big box store. Thank you Rotti's Equipment for saving my back. That was a close one!

I called Rotti's and talked to Trinity who who was very personable and helpful. She told me to drop it off and they would look at it. I expected it to take awhile as they were swamped because of the past and looming snowstorm. To my surprise, Tiffany called the next day and said it was ready, plus the repair bill was very reasonable. Do not hesitate to use Rotti's for all your yard machines sales and service. They stand behind their products. Roland from Shrewsbury

I emailed Rotti's Wednesday night and they responded soon after! Not only that, one of the owners, Megan, said she could have it picked up the next morning. I wasn't expecting service this fast. Even then, the storm was hitting Sunday and still had little hope of have it back by then. No matter, could use the exercise and mentally prepared the kids for the Monday morning task. No word from them Friday. Sent an email late just asking for an update because they were open Saturday but closed Sunday. No reply. I prepared the kids for the worst and laid out the plan for the storm with intermittent shoveling throughout before bedtime. But! Sunday morning as I'm making pancakes for the family I get an email from Megan saying (paraphrasing) "Hey! Snowblower is done. Want us to drop it off?" Hell yeah!!! Mere hours before the storm. I know they were busy with the impending storm, they didn't have to stay open on Sunday for me, and I bet a few others, to help us manage the biggest snowfall in like a decade, but they did. These are incredible people and you should totally give them your business. Oh! And the work was very reasonably priced. I was expecting at least double what I was charged. And a good chunk of that was becasue I had them pick up and deliver. Which they do, BTW. Use this company, you won't be sorry!
