Prior to 4/6/13: First call reached a recorded message instructing that if I wanted to deal immediately with the business, call another number to reach the "shop." Second call same afternoon contacted Austin. He was nice enough on the phone. Told him I needed my mower to have a Spring servicing. As I am a petite senior and loading/unloading mower from my small SUV would be difficult, I asked about "pick up." Even though he lives in my very small town, there would be a charge for that. "Hmmm . . . how much?" He'd have to call me back that night. Never heard from him. Today is 4/15/13
Description of Work: No services performed by this little business! Survey Question above, "Would you use this company/individual again in the future?" does not allow for "Maybe." I really like to deal with small local businesses. If Austin or another were to call me, apologize for dropping me through a crack, do an honest, excellent job of spiffing up my machine at a reasonable price, and not charge me for pick-up/delivery, I'd be a happy camper; and willing to report same to the World of Angie. WORK DATE DOES NOT APPLY! Stop making that a mandatory answer or tell how to circumvent the * ! Work address does not apply! See above.

Thank You for the Response. As with any small local business we are continually evolving. I have made staff changes, and removed the person in question in your message. We will make right to you if you allows us another chance in the future. If not, we truly understand. However, we have made some changes.

Super folks.... This company has more flexible hours by being open Saturday afternoons. I went to their shop, and asked for help with my leaf blower. They helped me with a very short fix in getting my repair started and then offered some additional advice on maintaining the equipment. No charge. Super helpful and super friendly. I will go back for any future repairs and services.

Description of Work: Have an older model cub cadet lawnmower with a yamaha engine. Had left it with tenants of a rental property for them to use when cutting the lawn. They ignored it for three years, so I got it back. Couldnt' get it to start so took it to Burke. It needed some basic cleaning out of the engine, a tune up, and tightening of the drive mechanism. Folks at Burke's took it in, got it cleaned out, replaced a couple parts in the carburator, a new pull rope, and sharpened the blade. Runs like a champ. Have recommended Burke to other people.

I had an older, but hardy lawnmower I bought from a previous owner in late 2011 that had not been used much. It had some starting issues. I brought it to Burke's for a tune up, etc. They got it up and running and I had no problems with it for the rest of the year (about 2-3 months). I ran the gas dry and stored it as per their advice and put it up for the winter. This spring I was having issues with it again. I called telling them the lawnmower I spent considerable money tuning up has only ran for 3 months and I think they need to relook their work. They were a bit reticent, and they probably didnt have to, but they gave it a second tune up and offered me a bargain price. I took it and the mower has been working fine all summer. The owner is very personable and willing to explain common problems like ethanol fuel and maintenance issues. He's also a VET and we need to support veteran owned small businesses!!

Made the mistake of installing a cheap Home Depot replacement head on my weed-eater which turned out to be impossible for me to remove. Took it over to Burke's and they removed it with no fuss and no expensive bill. It took a fast couple of days and DONE! The owner and staff were polite and courteous. They explained concisely what had to be done and were quite pleasant to work with. Overall a great experience.

Second time I have used them.First they fixed a blower for me and had me come back to adjust once I had finished the gas in the tank and change the gas/oil mixture.Second for my lawnmower which quit working. Both times they did the job in 3-4 days and were very pleasant. Price is reasonable and they always tell you ahead how much it will be, and both times came in a few dollars under the estimate

Drop off took only a few minutes to discuss the work to be done. Prices were discussed and they also followed up with a phone call after they analyzed the problems. Work was done on time as promised and I found them to very friendly, professional, and helpful.
Description of Work: Repaired a leaf vacuum and did an estimate on a weed eater that turned to not be worth the repair cost. They charged no money for the analysis of the weed eater. Timely work as promised and reasonable prices. I will use them again.

I was very pleased with the process, other than some minor confusion, about them missing my phone message, approving the work. When I called to followup, they were apologetic, began the work immediately and still got the mower back when promised. I love that they will actually sharpen the blade rather than replace it as Sears used to do, which I thought was unnecessarily wasteful.
Description of Work: Burkes Lawnmower picked up my mower, completely prepped it for the new season including a complete tune-up, oil change, blade sharpening, air filter replacement and more, and re-delivered my mower for what I think is a very reasonable price.
