I could not have had a better experience. Run, do not walk to Tri County Small Engine Repair for any repair you may have...
Description of Work: Needed my generator serviced with Hurricane Irma looming in a few days. Despite being swamped, they worked OT and got it back to me next day!!! I was over whelmed, bought them pizza just to say thanks for serving the community... BTW, Cheese, pepperoni & sausage seems to be preferred...

These guys quote $130 on a handshake. Upon pickup they wanted $200 cash. The common and simple 2 bolt Honda Carb was $44 and 1.5 HOURS OF LABOR!!!! Unscrewing 2 bolts and screwing them back in with a new carb should take approximately 10 minutes at the most. Attach the air cleaner maybe another under 10 minutes. Attach the fuel line under 2 minutes. Start it up to check it under 2 minutes. They only wanted CASH and forced me to go out to an ATM and get cash for them. If you use this business you're asking for trouble. They are liars and thieves. I am doing everything I can to warn people to avoid this Rip Off business.
Description of Work: They swapped out my simple 2 bolt carb on a Honda Pressure Washer and charged me $44 for the carb and 1.5 hours to bolt it on. The initial quote was $130 dollars "out the door". 3 weeks later upon pickup they charged me $200 cash only.

Jeff was very responsive and the repair was completed in one day. The generator engine would not start due to the carb. being clogged with old gas. Jeff was able to rebuild the carb. and winterize it so that I can just pour gas into it when I need it. His knowledge of small engines left me confident that I will not have any future issues and he explained how to keep this issue from occurring again.

Jeff responded promptly to my call for service and arranged to be at his shop in the morning for me to bring in the mower. He promised to work on the mower promptly and expected to have it ready the next day. We both agreed that the carburetor was the probable cause of the failure to start. I left the mower with him and he had it ready by noon the next day. I wasn't expecting the oil change and the clean-up but he did that at no additional charge. The mower started with the first pull when I picked it up and it looked brand new. I am completely satisfied with his service and he was very pleasant to deal with.
Description of Work: My lawn mower would not start after being left idle for several months. Jeff removed the carburetor and cleaned it (that was the problem), cleaned and gapped the spark plug, changed oil and generally cleaned the mower to look like new.

My experience with Jeff and his small engine business was nothing but positive. He and his techs absolutely knew what they were doing, treated me with respect, and got my little job done in a very timely and professional manor. I am completely satisfied with the job they did, and so thankful for Angies List which led me to him. I would definitely recommend his service to anyone.

I had called Jeff and arranged to bring the generator to his location. He and his associate greeted me and immediately surveyed the condition of the generator. Jeff gave me an estimate for the cost and when it would be ready. Jeff was professional; he explained what was done and gave me some suggestions regarding proper care. I'm pleased and will recommend Tri County!

Jeff picked up my pressure washer and hour after I called. He called me back within 2 hrs to tell me what was wrong. However he indicated that the cost to repair it may not be justified. He asked if he could hold onto the unit for a few days to see if he could figure a cheaper way. He called back a few days later with it repaired indicating that another unit came in that he could scavenge parts from. He tested my new parts and installed it and delivered to my door for a reasonable price. I also asked him if he knew of a good bicycle shop for repairs. He took my bike to his job and worked on it for free. I would definitely recommend him

We had a Generator that needed an overhaul ... (it wouldn't start). Jeff accessed the problem and completely cleaned the carborator and flushed out all the tubes and all the old gas was removed ... for a small fee he "winterized" it as well. We also had him clean/condition our lawn mower and had him sharpen the blades ... Mower is as GOOD as NEW ;-) ...Definate "Thumbs Up" from us!

Will keep his phone number handy, and would definately recommend his services without hesitation. We had a Generator that needed an overhaul ... (it wouldn't start).

They said it would take two days, but it was ready on one day.
Description of Work: I took my lawn tractor to Tri County Small Engine Repair, the experience was more than pleasurable. I was assisted by Jeffery and Dave both were overly helpful. They told me that it would be several days but to my joy I was able to pick it up the next day. The cost, their minimal charge. I highly recommend these guy for your small engine repairs.

. .They did come and get it and I guess they had a tine of it. Harbor freight did not support them as far as parts were concerned. Jeff made the most of it though. He did more that expected and on budget, just what he quoted me. That is rare now days. I will rermember these guys.
Description of Work: I had an emergency generator, gas driven I'd never used. I tried to start it once and all I did was break the shutoff valve on the gas tank. My wife wanted me to fix it, I had no clue how then I remembered Small engine repairs. I had then pick ti up and see what they could do.

His immediate response was to throw out the weed eater instead of fixing it. I asked him to look at it. I left it there and ten days later it was never touched. He again told me that it was not repairable. He told me the carburetor would cost $100 which I knew was not true. I found one for $13 on the internet, put it in and it now works perfectly. He simply did not want to deal with me.

Response from Tri County Small Engine Repair
I honestly don't remember looking at this piece of equipment, However, there are times when some equipment that I look at really is not worth fixing. Most Ryobi trimmers are available at Home Depot for under $100. I looked up Some of the reviews from Home Depot and I was not surprised to find out most of the purchasers were unhappy, describing Ryobi as a "headache in a box", and "disposable" I buy my parts from a reputable, Local American parts supplier. My wholesale price on this carb is $40. my shop rate is 60/hr. I will not take a chance ordering some of the junk for "whatever price" on ebay I try very hard to please all of my very important customers. I think this person would be mad no matter what I did.

My mother's lawnmower hadn't been running for a month and neither I nor she could even get it to start. After looking over my options on Angie's List I found the guys at Tri County Repairs. They were really nice on the phone and offered pick up and delivery for a seriously LOW flat rate. They even offered to pick it up same day and showed up on time! After listening to what I was having trouble with the repairman took a look and with a little on site tweak he got it running! He didn't charge me for coming out since it wasn't really broken, I am so happy that I called these guys.

Being new to the area I didn't know who to go to except Angie's List now I know
Description of Work: My riding mower would start but when I let out the clutch it would die. No matter what I tried or called it it would not stay running. I checked Angie's list found Tri County .They had good reviews so I called them. I don't have a trailer to carry my mower to them. No problem they said, we'll come to you and pick it up and return it when it's done. Swell. So they did. The next day it was ready and for less money than I expected! Next time I or any one know needs small engine repairs, You know who I'm calling. Thank you Angie's list, again

It went very well we talked about how much I was willing to spend and I left the machine with them. After only 3 hours they called and said the machine just had a clogged carburetor and a dirty fuel filter. So for an hour labor charge and the price of a filter I was back in business. They also replaced the fuel lines. Very easy no confusion or surprises.
Description of Work: My Craftsman gas powered string trimmer wouldn't start. I did the little maintenance things I knew how to do with no result I called several shops and nobody wanted to work on it or they wanted way to much just to look at it or it would take several weeks to get to it. I finally called Tri County Small Engine Repair and was pleased to discover that they were willing to look at the machine and that I could afford to have them look at it.
