VINNY'S LAWNMOWER SERVICE

Vinnie is a nice guy and he's got decades of experience, he has forgotten more about small engine repo than most repairmen ever knew in the first place. His work is excellent quality. However, he NEVER picks up the telephone, and unless you are a commercial client your repair will not be done even close to on time. Homeowner clients get bumped behind commercial clients so plan to tack on about 3 weeks to any repair you need done and to drive over there to get status updates since he never answers the phone. Ever. Seriously. I've put up with the inconvenience for going on six years though just because his work is so much better than anywhere else and will probably keep on doing so until he retires.

I gave him a chipper to replace the blades and a riding mower to fix the deck, remove the old blades and replace with new blades. I could not find replacement blades, he did. On another occasion I bought a second hand push mower to do some rough and hard cutting. I had difficulty starting it. I had given him the mower I had been using. When I took the second mower back I asked if he could fix the old one (it needed new cables and a new blade). He said he could, he fixed the old one, took back the one I had bought and called it even. He also replaced the spark plug, changed the oil and filter. I was satisfied.
