Went very well. Provider contacted us promptly, and handled our snowblower needs quickly. We will probably use them again for a tractor that needs work. Very satisfied.

Noticed no difference in lawn mower after the service. It is still hard to start. The premises and people are scary; wouldn't want my wife or daughters near it.

Everything went as they described. Promised to have it ready in a week and it was ready in a week. Fortunately have not needed to use it yet, but machine looks good and when time comes, know it will be ready to go.

I love working with AAM's, and I do business with them every year. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Occasionally it takes a bit for a call back. Aside from that, they are an excellent company.

I called wanting a snow blower/lawn mower repair and tune up. The lady on the phone said she would talk with the tech to see if he had the parts and get back with me. I never heard back. She also said NOT to book/pay through Angie's List because Angie's List takes half of the price I pay and they could receive the entire amount if I deal with her directly. So they want the benefit of Angie's List ratings and referrals for free. Scammers!!!!
Description of Work: Did not receive service. Only spoke on phone.

Came to house and did repairs in his truck. No need to try to haul the machine elsewhere. Price was also lower than any of the storefront places we used previously. Gave him name to friends, and they too loved his work.

A bit difficult to find, so take a SatNav with you and it's slightly off-road so don't be surprised when it dumps you halfway along the road :) Apart from that service was great, dropped Snow Blower off on Saturday Morning (watch out they close at Noon) , they phone on the Tuesday to say it was ready and picked it up on the following Saturday They guy was very polite (a couple of reviews for other places deterred me because of their rudeness) and have no complaints

He was excellent. He came to the house. I could not take time off so he just fixed the mower and left a bill. His price was so reasonable. All of our phone conversations were helpful and he was very polite. I was concerned that he could have charged me a lot of money as I was not home. He did not do that. I would totally recommend him to anyone. He was wonderful.

I called and made an appointment for on-site service the following afternoon. Serviceman arrived early afternoon and fixed the mower probably in under 15 minutes. Stayed with me until I was satisfied I could start the mower myself. No new parts were required, so price was just for the service.
