John W. Magie Enterprises Inc. started in business in 1982 as a Lawn Care Company. In 1985 we purchased another Lawn Care Company out of Harrison, Ohio that had been in business for 32 years. This was a necessary purchase to grow our business and expand our demographics as the area continued to grow and review our options for future possibilities. It was decided to become a Lawn & Garden Dealership in 1988. We partnered with John Deere, Toro, and other engine manufactures. By 1990, (80%) of our business was retail, parts, and service of lawn and garden equipment. We had continued growth over the next 10 years.
In 2000 we had a major road split our property in half. The new highway (Butler Regional Highway or Rt. 129) allowed us additional traffic and retail opportunities. In the Spring of 2003 we started building a new state of the art facility for our industry which was approximately 100 yards from our original farm type setting. On October 10, 2003 we opened our new facility. Our new facility was built around increasing our efficiency to service our customers better.
We continue to expand our service opportunity by providing at Home Service for our customers and selling Preferred Customer Maintenance Plans. We have partnered with other retail outlets to be a Service Partner to continue our growth and expertise by being a parts and service solution for our customers.
Saleman took plenty of time to explain all the features of the various models they offer. Delivery of the new tractor and pick up of the old were not a problem. We purchased the maintenance contract and they came to change the oil after 4 uses.
Description of Work: We shopped for rider lawn tractors. price was about the same at big box stores compared to WC lawn & garden (now Moes). They gave us a trade in on our old tractor which made them the best deal. We live very close to them and have been satisfied with their service the past,

Michael Dick spent 2 hours going over the landscaping of our new house, which had not been cared for for about 7 years. He took the time to explain everything to me and recommending treatments or whether to even keep certain items. He and his staff performed great work and got everything looking so much better. There was a few weeks delay in the scheduling, but they were worth the wait.
Description of Work: Diagnosed, fed and trimmed trees and shrubs; cleared weeds, honeysuckle, etc that were growing into and choking trees and some shrubs; removed stumps; treated thistle and poison ivy; removed dead trees.

This group was pricey and did not respond very quickly in their work. The amount of time that you have to spend to get customer service is far too long. Their processes are very disconbobulated.

Went there with a lawn tractor that wouldn't run. Two weeks... $70 up front for diagnostics. "All ready, come and get it." Took it home, started right up, one circle of the yard (8 minutes) and stopped running, wouldn't re-start. Let it sit and cool overnight. Re-started, ran for another loop around the yard and died to not re-start. Took it back to them... "You only asked us to get it running..." "NO, I wanted it to RUN." Another four days... "Come and get it." Same problem.... Still only runs for 8-10 minutes, then dies, not to re-start. And, to add insult to injury, one of the tie-down bolts for the battery is now missing." I WOULD NEVER GO BACK, NOR WOULD I EVER RECOMMEND!

Pick-up and delivery as promised. They were able to save blades that I thought were unsalvageable. Identified a couple of areas that I should attend to in the future without pressure of them replacing. Will use again.

I brought the mower in for a tune up and to have the blade sharpened. I had hoped that the mower would start more easily and cut more cleanly than before the service was performed, but that was not the case. The mower seems to work just the same as it did before being serviced. The mower was ready earlier than they had estimated, which was nice. However, when I went in to pick it up, they could not find it. After searching for quite a while (and involving other employees) they did find it. While I was waiting for the mower, I was looking around the store and intended to buy grass seed. However, I noticed that the "use by " date on the seed had already passed. I asked someone in the store about it and they said it was not important, but I dd not purchase the seed.

I don’t use them anymore because they are expensive. They do a really good job, and they are thorough. Their price I thought was getting very high but they did well with their service. I purchase our mowers from them and if I had to I would use them for service but if I have an option I would not use them.

After many years of satisfactory service, the last two years I obtained a tune-up have been a big disappointment. I took the mower in for service over the winter so I could benefit from a discount coupon and to have the mower available during the growing season. When I started using the mower this spring, it ran poorer than when I brought it in for servicing. It keeps stalling and appears under-powered. If I were to return it as a complaint, I would lose the use of the mower during the spring growing season. Consequently, I will have to do the servicing myself. After two years of a similar experience, I will not return to have my mower serviced there again. After last year's disappointing service, I went back, giving them the benefit of doubt, since I had many prior years of satisfactory service. From now, either I will do the servicing myself or take it to another service provider. I use providers due to lack of time to do it myself. ---------------------------------------------------------- Once I serviced the mower, I discovered that the spark plug gap was set at 0.03 inches, instead of the required 0.02 inches. This would explain the lawn mower's lack of power.

Westchester is a fine company. Once the machine is picked up it is like it disappeared into a black hole. It has always come back working well. I would use them again
Description of Work: I have a zero turn Toro 62" mower and do not have the capability to transport it to their shop. They need to come get it. I had them replace the blades, change the oil and replace a belt that had failed. They greased the many grease joints and tuned the machine. With the pick up and delivery charge, I feel the bill just okay. I wish the turn around could be faster, it seems to take 10 days at least and more often than not two weeks. I note that they now have a truck that will do some repair work at your home or place of work. I have not tried that yet.

Very easy to work with. I called, they picked up within a day or so, and they did the tune-up. That took longer than I wanted--maybe two weeks or so--but I understood they were backed up with other customers.
Description of Work: They picked up my riding mower and performed a tune-up that also included sharpening the mower blades. Afterwards they dropped the mower off at my house.

THEIR EMPLOYEES WERE NEVER DISCOURTEOUS, BUT THEIR SERVICE POLICIES (INCLUDING THEIR POLICY NOT TO REASSEMBLE A PIECE OF EQUIPMENT IN FOR ESTIMATE) LEAVE A LOT TO BE DESIRED. I EXPECT THAT IF I DROP OFF A PIECE OF EQUIPMENT WITH A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR AN ESTIMATE, THAT I CAN PICK UP THE EQUIPMENT IN THE SAME CONDITION I DROPPED IT OFF IN, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT I DECIDE TO HAVE THE WORK PERFORMED.
Description of Work: I BROUGHT MY TORO RIDING MOWER IN FOR AN ESTIMATE BECAUSE THE BLADE WASN'T WORKING PROPERLY. AFTER RECEIVING THE ESTIMATE OVER THE PHONE, I DECLINED TO HAVE THE WORK DONE. WHEN I WENT TO THEIR LOCATION TO PICK UP THE MOWER, IT WAS STILL DISASSEMBLED FROM THEIR DIAGNOSTIC WORK. I WAS TOLD THAT SINCE I ONLY PAID FOR AN ESTIMATE, THE LAW DOESN'T REQUIRE THEM TO REASSEMBLE THE MOWER. I BALKED AT THEIR EXPLANATION AND DEMANDED THAT AT THE VERY LEAST THEY PROVIDE ME WITH FREE DROP-OFF SERVICE FOR THE MOWER AT MY HOME. THEY EVENTUALLY CAPITULATED AND AGREED TO DROP OFF MY MOWER AT MY RESIDENCE LATER IN THE WEEK.
