Gary I.

I remember this location as the Valley Power Equipment back in the days when a substantial number of Japanese Americans originally from Japan worked as gardeners since many of them came from agricultural regions tending crops which in many ways are an extension of gardening. So even back in the day, power equipment would ease the burden of heavy work & lessen the time needed to do the work. So Valley Power Equipment was run by Japanese Americans starting 1953. Now the majority of gardeners are Latinos so it makes sense that the shop is now operated by a Latino family with the paterfamilias, Sal, heading up the operation & his son-in-law repairing the power equipment. To show change of ownership, it is Valley Power Repair. I had a heavy duty Honda commercial power mower that would not start. I took it to the same shop that it was purchased which made it kind of a home coming. Sal told me he'd give it a good reconditioning changing the oil, air filter, spark plug, readjusting the carburator, sharpening the rotary cutting blade. He repaired it in 4 working days which is fast compared to over 3 weeks at a repair shop in La Crescenta when supposedly they were overwhelmed by people who discovered that their mowers didn't work for the spring yard clean up. However, VPR in a similar spring time period repaired it five times faster. Btw, you have to bring in & take back the equipment on your own. There is no pick up & delivery which may be an inconvenience if the equipment is too heavy or bulky for one person to handle. Otherwise, VPR is a good family owned shop to do business with. Sal mentioned that they also sell power equipment which may be a good deal since they will definitely back sales with fast, efficient repairs. 4+ Yelp stars.

The back room of the shop! I love places like this!

A great little repair shop! I took a chainsaw to another shop for a tune up and they told me it was toast and needed to buy another one from them. I came to Valley Power for a second opinion. Right as I walked in he put down what he was doing, disassembled my chainsaw, inspected the piston and said it was fine and I just needed to change my gas/oil mixture. He handed it back to me and no charge and just bring him my business when I really need something fixed. This is a small, grass roots shop and don't be put off by the piles of used power tools everywhere. He really knows his stuff and will have my business again!

See all

This is a delay review, but Must be writing Larry is such a great human being and very honest man…read morehe's a very hard-working man I bought a business and my generator keeps shutting down on me. I called multiple places the cheapest one coded me $8000 and I just bought the van with the business and I was having a hard time to get everything off the ground so it was out of my budget. I start keep looking around and I have found the larry and I explain to him my situation saying that I know you don't know me, but I'm a man of my word if you want to work with me and keep me going so I start to make money again I will sign you in my life to you . Hey said to me don't worry I got you just come here I will take care of you . I went over there and he locked into my eyes and says I'm here for you. Don't worry I got you. I guess he can see how much stressed I am and he dropped everything in his shop and work on my generator for two hours and got everything working perfect for $150, I was driving back having a joy tear in my eyes I couldn't believe it .!!! he's very honest man Harley recommended

Attention Dog Groomers ! I needed a repair on my ONAN…read moregenerator that suddenly stopped working. I was referred to Oliphant by multiple companies and I am glad that I they did. Larry was able to troubleshoot and fixed the issue right away. He made the process very convenient. I couldn't believe how easy it was but I am very thankful.

We are a Mobile Pet Salon that is dedicated to servicing the San Gabriel Valley. We ran into an…read moreemergency where we had no idea what to do. We requested his service right away! We were unbelievably lucky to request a service and have the problem solved by the end of the next day. The quality of his work and most of all, the value of his work is unmatched. We have tried just about every mobile repair in Southern California and have never found somebody as good as Nick. He cares about getting you back on the road. He understands what it's like to have a small business and he truly cares about the people he helps. Talk about a win-win. I don't want to ever go to anyone else! The San Gabriel Valley needs a mobile RV and generator repair guy, and Nick is HIM!

Nick's Mobile came through when I needed it most…read more I was at Bonelli Bluffs the weekend before Halloween and my new trailer suddenly lost shore power. Not the kind of problem you want to deal with on a trip. I called Nick and he responded right away. He made time to come out the same day. He diagnosed the issue quickly and knew exactly what was wrong. The automatic transfer switch had failed. Instead of delaying the repair, he tracked down the part himself, picked it up, and came back to install it. That level of effort matters when you are on a tight timeline. The repair was clean and professional. Power was restored and my entire weekend was back on track. What could have been a ruined trip turned into a great one. He did not stop there. He worked through the warranty process and made sure the repair was covered. I ended up fully reimbursed by the manufacturer. That saved me money and a lot of hassle. Nick goes above and beyond. He is responsive, knowledgeable, and committed to taking care of his customers. If you need mobile RV service, this is the guy to call. Nick if you see this, I truly apologize for such a late review. My mother in law stills talks about how nice you were and was happy that you stayed for a meal with us!
