Ken offered a service of coming to the house to fix my riding lawnmower (since I don't own a trailer). He already had an A rating on Angie's List. I sent him an e-mail. I went on to his website and provided information about my mower. He quoted me an estimate and we agreed on a date. The week of his appointment, Ken sent an e-mail asking me to confirm the date. He called prior to showing up. Ken did the work requested and the bill was just what he estimated. I mowed the grass yesterday and it worked better than it has in awhile.
Description of Work: Ken performed a spring tune-up - changed the spark plug, filters and oil. He tuned up my riding lawnmower, Sharpened the blades and fixed a flat.

My mower had sat in my garage for two years, not running, because I was not aware there was a repair man that would come to my home. I had no way of transporting my mower to a repair shop. I asked Ken for an estimate of what my mower might be worth as I'm retiring and want to sell it. He asked for the model number and told me it was probably worth $100, but warned me it might cost between $80 and $100 to repair and I might want to try to sell it as is. I told him I wanted him to fix it anyway as I would rather sell a working mower than a non-working mower, even if I lost money. I left my mower on my back patio and Ken worked on it while I was at work. He cleaned it up and told me it was in nice condition, barely used, and it's estimated value was closer to $150. I'm extremely happy with my experience with Ken, and would not hesitate to refer him to friends and neighbors who need assistance with their mowers.
Description of Work: Check over mower, R&R carburetor and cleaned out, replaced float needle and seat, added oil.

Ken was great. He told me to leave my mower outside and he would come by and fix it. I did and he did. It was a great experience that someone does what they say and when they say and at a fair price. Thanks Ken. _dave

It went pretty well. A little confusion on the address on the first day he was supposed to be there, so he came the next day. Not a big deal to me. I thought the price a was a little high, (30.00 trip charge), but it was convenient, and he did come less than 2 weeks after my initial call to him. Everything is running great, so no complaints.
Description of Work: He replaced my fuel line on my troy built trimmer, replaced the pump, spark plug and air filter. He also cleaned and rebuilt the carburetor on the trimmer. I think he may have flushed the carburetor on my lawn mower too, but not sure, (i wasn't home).

Response from KEN'S MOBILE SERVICE
Member, Thank you for taking time to post a review. I am pretty sure we discussed the trip charge, as I usually make it a point to let everyone know that trip charge will make the price higher for something small and easily transportable like a weed trimmer. The trip charge is listed and explained on the Service Request form that you filled out for your equipment. The prices I charge are competitive with most local mower repair shops that you take your equipment to. Your total bill also reflects the parts and service on your lawn mower that you had me check while I was there, and not just the weed trimmer.

I contacted Ken via email and explained the problem that I was having with the Pressure washer, and from that he was able to give me a pretty accurate estimate of what it was and how much it would cost to repair. I had already done my research before contacting him and had come to the same conclusion that it was the carburetor. (I like to do my research, that way I feel informed and less likely to be taken advantage of.) Ken's service suited me great as I am unable to transport the washer! He showed up on time fixed the carburetor in just a few minutes and explained to me how to avoid this in the future. He's very professional and easy to work with.
Description of Work: I had Ken come out and clean out the carburetor of a power washer.

Home visit, coordinated entire job via email which was convenient, arrived on time and did quality work. Very pleased to have my equipment now be frustration free, with a frustration free and inexpensive service experience. You can even leave your equipment outside if nobody will be home, although my wife was home in this case.

My mower and trimmer were not running well. I didn't feel they would make another week so I went on Angie's list to see if there was mower repair. When I began reading all the positive responses from Ken's mobile mower service, I called on July 6th. After reaching Ken immediately we decided to leave the two machines in the backyard for his review. Ken is very much up to date with technology and suggested I go on line to input all the information. Once I send the message, it sends a text to Ken. I gave him authorization to fix that day if it was under $200.00. Wowand hellip; I am impressed with how Ken responded so quickly and is willing to come to your home. This was outstanding service. The mower and trimmer are now working great. Thank you for a well done job.
Description of Work: Mower and trimmer received a full service cleaning: Cleaned cooling system, installed new spark plug, flushed carburetor, changed engine oil, sharpen blade, replaced air filter element, lubricated and adjusted all controls. For the trimmer: Drained and flushed fuel system, cleaned cooling system, checked ignition system and replaced plug and filled trimmer head with line.

Ken arrived when promised and had my mower running in no time.The fact that he came to my home versus having to take the mower somewhere to be told one to two weeks was fantastic. I'm a customer for life.
Description of Work: My mower wouldn't start. I was using new, premium gas and an additive that was recommended by another repair place, but the engine just wouldn't go -- and it's a quality mower. Ken arrived and immediately went to work -- and soon discovered the priming button was cracked. Ken had the part in his trailer, and managed to fix the mower like new.

I ran over tree stump with mower. Could not transport mower to service center so I needed someone to come by the house. Sent an email to Ken and received an immediate response. Ken showed up on time and checked the mower for damage. Not finding any he serviced the mower and it runs very well now. Ken was very professional.

I called them and they were here within two hours. The repairs were made within an hour and they then left. I am very pleased with the service. Afterwards, I wanted to charge it on my credit card and he said he would provide an invoice online. This would allow me to pay with PayPal. I assume he was trusting me to pay within the scheduled time.

Ken has a complete shop in his trailer (including PC to print a detailed invoice) and he did the work on my driveway...i'll never take a mower into a shop again. His service is top-notch.
