John's Lawn Mowers

Well, if you need more information, let me share this with you. Last year, i took an electric start mower to them. It was my first time dealing with John's Lawn Mowers. The mower wouldn't crank on battery and wouldn't start on pull cord. They did do am good job of repairing the carb; when I got the mower back, it would start on the first pull. However, they claimed they could do nothing for the battery issue as it need a new one and they don't carry it. Fair enough! Johns charged me $35 to diagnose battery issue from the main switch to the battery which is housed in the deck and to check all connectors. The diagnoses a dead battery. A weak or so after I got home, I took the deck apart to get to the battery and replace it. What did I find? The battery compartment was filled with grass and dirt...it had never even been opened by John's Lawn Mowers. Further more, the main connector was completely corroded, proving beyond a doubt that they never looked into the battery issue, but charged me the labor falsely. All I had to do was cut out the corroded connector and splice the wires together and my mower cranked away! My wife convinced me to give them another chance, with my edger, since they did do a good job with the carb on the mower. Maybe, she reasoned, they just don't know batteries and electric start systems. So, I gave them one more try; Which, you just read about! I won't be back and I recommend you find someone more honest to do business with as well.

I brought the pressure washer to John at 9am and it was ready by 12pm. Very impressed with the fast turn around as it was most helpful.

see above, already detailed

I had purchased a new mower a year before and called John's to do yearly maintenance. His son answered the phone and arranged the date and time. They picked up my mower on time - tuned it up, sharpened the blades, , oil change etc and cleaned it ! John delivered it back to the house - started it up and it has been working great. Will be calling again for my yearly tune-up in a few months. Looking forward to working with them again. Thanks. :)

I called John and told him my Craftsman DYT4000 ran fine, but the belt was smoking when I engaged the blade. He said he offered pickup for riders, but suggested that I just bring the deck in to save money. It ended up being just one pulley, and the others were fine. He replaced the problem pulley, sharpened the mulching blades of the mower, and charged a VERY reasonable $56. JOHN IS THE MAN!!!

Outstanding service and pricing. A top find. I recommend him to everyone.

The repairs were done fine. They were very timely with giving me a detailed quoted. They explained everything that needed to be done.

We had purchased the lawnmower used and didn't want to invest any money in it if it wasn't worth it. He tuned it up, sharpened blade, set carburetor,and other basic annual service items. He also addressed issues of replacing shut off cable, air filter, and 2 gaskets.. He said the motor was good so it was worth fixing and now we are set for the mowing season. Provided an itemized tag with costs of everything that was completed.

We dropped our lawn mower to be repaired at John's Lawn Mowers and picked it back up the next day. We're happy with the results. He did an excellent job and his prices were reasonable. He was quick and diagnosed and fixed the problem in a day. I will use them again, anytime I need lawnmower service.

He made sure the mower was running smoothly.

He did a good job and only did what was needed.

Self propelled mower had been in storage for 3 years while I was out of the country and would not start even though I had prepped it before putting it in storage. Dropped it off on Monday and John called saying it was ready on Tuesday. He had cleaned carburetor and sharpened the blade. Works fine now. Good service and timely.

After contact was made, John of John's Mowers made contact to set up time to pickup my riding mower… he was prompt arriving even early to pick up my rider…. the mower was delivered back to my residence at least a day earlier than promised…. John was very helpful, and did all work promised, and then some…. This rider is ten years old, and is the first time it has been overhauled. John was very methodical, and thorough, even cleaning the ten year old mower... The mower rides and cuts as well as it did when new. Should I ever need small engine repair in the future, I will first call John's Mower shop in Tarpon Springs!!! Thanks John for a great job!

John contacted us with the work performed. He informed us that, while the unit was quite usable, it did not idle. To fix that would require $40 to rebuild the carburetor. An option he really wasn't recommending. When the unit was taken home and put to use, it was just as he said. It operated fine as long as the engine speed was kept above what would be idle. Somehting which was easy to do as it is a weed whacker/edger which is normally at operating speed. I found John to be very honest, reasonabley priced and quick to perform the work/return the unit. I would use John's services again and would definitely recommend him to others.

It is easy and quick. It was all labor because no part was needed. I was satisfied, and I would call him again.

I needed help getting a pressure washer running. I left it with John for a couple of days and he got it going. I had trouble with it again a few days later and John had me bring it back to him and he fixed while I waited.

John arrived on time and began diagnostics. He found two safety switches were corroded and made the necessary repairs which fixed the problem. Further, he checked the air filter and oil and found them to be satisfactory. He described what he fixed and demonstrated how the blade engagement and brakes work. The $85.00 repair bill, of which $62.00 was for the on-site service call, $23.00 for parts and service. John was super friendly and did a great job.

John's Mobile Mower Repair is also doing business as BT Repair in Palm Harbor, FL at 727 787 3767. I was charged $121.00 for pick-up of my lawn mower(I am a senior and do not have the strength to put mower into my small car), a new blade. air filter and shop supplies. Because the lawn didn't need mowing until Sunday (1/20/13) I did not try to start the mower until then (this was the first attempt since the supposed repair). I charged this electrical mower for 24 hours as is recommended and when it didn't start, I called the company. (The electrical outlet I was using to charge the mower was functional) This is the reply I got from the man who answered the phone: 1) I would be charged another $47.00 for someone to pick up the mower in addition to any other costs. 2) He said the repairs were only covered for 30 days. 3) I responded this request was within the thirty days and then I noticed that NOWHERE ON THE ORIGINAL RECEIPT was there a date written. (Very convenient for an owner who doesn't want to honor a warranty.) ALSO, NOWHERE ON THE ORIGINAL RECEIPT was there any wording which indicated a 30 day warranty on repairs. I have paid $121.00 for a lawn mower which doesn't work.

John explained that all it needed was to have the choke adjusted, but I requested he do all the other maintenance as well.

John was very responsive and punctual. He came to my house to fix my mower and really took his time and did a good job. I was quite a distance away. After a week, it wouldn't start again, and John came back and stood by his work and fixed it. Now it has been fine. Not sure if the second issue was something that could have been caught on the first fix, but John took care of it. I'd highly recommend him for your lawn machinery repairs. He's a good person.

The work was performed at my home and at the agreed upon time. I am very satisfied with John's professionalism and his ability to explain things to me.

John promptly returned my message and found out what was needed to be done. He picked up the lawnmower, diagnosed it, repaired it, and promptly returned the lawnmower. It works like it is brand new! I would definitely recommend.

They were exceptional, returned my phone calls promptly, stayed open 15minutes late so I could drop off my mower after work, repaired it the next day. I'll definitely call them again when I need any mower/ garden equiptment repair needs.

Excellent from pick-up through delivery. The mower runs faster now than it did when we first bought it.

Quick, efficient and reasonable. Will definitely use in the future
