Tom, the owner, promised to pick up my snow blower for repair. He was busy, so it was to be one of 2 days for the pick up. He would call in advance no matter what. The first day he failed to call so I called him at the end of the day. He apologized for not calling and said he would get it picked up the next day. He said again that he would call prior to coming. At the end of the 2nd day I called him again. He said very bluntly that he was too busy to come & pick up my snow blower. At that time I asked why he made me wait for 2 days and never called and he didn't have an answer. I said thanks a lot and hung up. If he would have just taken the time to call me as he said he would I could have gotten someone else and not lost time and been inconvenienced. He was very unprofessional.
Description of Work: None.

THEY PICK UP AND REPAIR SMALL EQUIPMENT QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY. I HAVE HAD THEM ALSO SHARPEN LAWN TOOLS. TOM, THE OWNER IS VERY HONEST, DOES EXCELLENT WORK. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM!
Description of Work: THEY PICKED UP THE RIDING MOWER AND TOOK IT TO THEIR SHOP. THEY CALLED AND TOLD ME THE PRICE TO REPAIR IT. WE AGREED THE REPAIRS WERE MORE COSTLY THAN WAS ECONOMICAL. THEY DISPOSED OF THE MOWER. OTHER TIMES, I HAVE HAD THEM REPAIR MOWERS FOR ME.
