Awesome shop. I did my own belt replacement and they let me know what parts I needed and what I didn't.

They called me a fuck and told me to get out because I did not agree to pay $50 to screw two bolts

Love this place. Karen shares every bit of information I need to keep my equipment running smoothly year after year, and how to do it economically. Been coming here 20+ years. Even if the price of canned gas doubles, like it did this year, I'm still buying it here and having them service all my small engine stuff. Honest. Helpful. Small business with great people. read more

Merriam Park Repair saved the day on my Honda trimmer. I was able to get the trimmer fixed and cross it off my honey do list! Easy access off I-94 and plenty of parking. 5 stars read more

When using our battery operated snowblower, I ran over a newspaper that was covered by the snow. The paper got jammed and stuck in the blade causing the snowblower to stop (and not start again). We took it to Merriam Park Repair. They were able to repair it in just a couple of days! The customer service was outstanding! Repair cost was fair and reasonable. Highly recommend them! :-) read more

My neighbor hooked me up with this place. Had snowblower repair here done, they came and picked up the blower, fixed it, brought it back in tip-top shape. Mower needed some attention this spring - wobbly wheels and not running so great. Picked up gave me the bad news. Went to the shop had an incredible experience, walked away with a new mower I love. Couldn't be happier with the overall experience, couldn't be happier to support a locally owned business. Recommend 100%. read more

They're reliable, communicate well, fairly quick turnaround, know their stuff and as affordable as any others.

I had a snowblower serviced. They did the work as planned. They even did pick up and droop off. I'd use again.

I had my snowblower repaired last fall. A new snowblower, didn't start after only one year. I took it to Merriam Park for repair. They helped me unload the snowblower from my trailer, and repaired it within the promised time, and helped me load the snowblower back onto my trailer when I picked it up. When I got it back, the snowblower was better than new. I frequently had to use the electric start to get it going last year but this year it always started in the first pull, even in single-digit temperatures. If I need another repair in the future, they will be the first people I call. read more

My experience here has always been excellent and was again after a recent visit to get a couple lawn mower parts. I've only had repairs done and bought parts from them -- but everytime they've been super-knowledgeable about my (mostly) older gear and offer plenty of free and helpful advice about keeping my equipment going. I've also found their parts are *way* cheaper than even online giants (AheMAZON), much less other local big box stores like Home Despot or Men'sNards. Not to mention they aren't staffed by idiots like those places. Since I'm not very knowledgeable (just dangerous) on Small engine stuff....Repairs have been fair priced and pretty quick with no nonsense. On my old snowblower they could've gouged me but said "don't fix it, it isn't worth the $$ just use it til it dies". They were right! The one tool I bought from them (a chainsaw) was really well-priced and they advised me very well. I'm happy.... read more

I took my mower in on account of it not starting, did all I could. They said it'd be about a week, no problem. Within the week they called and said to pick it up. Went to pick it up and asked what was the cause of casualty, bad ignition coil. Took it home and tried to start it, nothing.... exact same problem as when I took it in. Called them and they said bring it back in. They took it in back and within 5 minutes I heard it start. Out it comes again and I ask again what was the problem, loose contact on the bail. Now I ain't stupid; I know after the coil was put in they didn't try to start it otherwise they would have found that it wouldn't have started until the bail contact was fixed. On the plus side the coil (maybe) needed to be replaced but the bail contact would have been the most obvious start point. I'm no expert on mowers but usually the simplest solution is the best. Had it been in the instruction manual, that I still have, I would have found it myself but manuals today don't go that deep into troubleshooting for obvious (shop fee) reasons. I learned a valuable lesson but would have been more impressed with better troubleshooting on their part. As with all repairs now customers need to make sure the people doing the work are being forthright and honest in their repairs; a simple. "I screwed up." keeps credibility with a business. read more

I brought my yard vacuum in for repairs on Wednesday. They said it would take about a week, but they got it done in 2 days!!!! It works great and I couldn't be more pleased. Incredible repair and amazing customer service all at a reasonable price. They seem to really care about their customers, and I would highly recommend them! read more

I think this is the best repair service in the city. I have the whole range of lawn and snow equipment, so I see them frequently for routine maintenance. Their prices are good, as is their turn-around time -- but most of all, they are enormously helpful (and courteous) in giving me advice in dealing with the sometimes idiosyncratic problems with some of these machines. For example, I have a snowblower where the cylinder always seized up when I tipped it down when I had to change a shear pin. They told me exactly what I had to do to correct that problem -- and their advice cost me exactly nothing. This shop is a throw-back to an earlier age --- where the people are both nice and enormously competent. read more

I have been a customer with Merriam Park Repair for over twenty years. They have serviced my 824 Toro Snowthrower and my 418 ZR Toro Snowthrower. They are so reliable and so pleasant to work with. I am 67 years old with very little mechanical knowledge or skill, so I greatly appreciate how helpful they are, how well they explain things to me, and how patient they are with my questions. Special appreciation from me to Karen, Paul, and Ben. With them in my corner, I no longer fear a big snow fall!! Tom Wilson read more

Awesome service. Would highly recommend. For years I've been going to Merriam Park Repair for annual snowblower maintenance. The snowblower is always returned quickly and runs well through the season. I bought my last snowblower there, too. I recently asked Merriam Park Repair to look at my old, second-hand mower. They went above and beyond to help me out and keep my old mower working. I appreciate this small business. Don't hesitate to go there. read more

I just dropped in to Merriam Park Repair and spoke with one of the repair men. I was very impressed. Sounded like he knew what he was talking about and it fit with my own understanding about mowers and snow blowers. I was disappointed to see only one review... from Eric. That means the shop's rating shows as "1". Unfortunate. Eric said his problem occurred every year. One thing most people don't understand is that gasoline has a shelf life. It gets 'stale' from one season to the next. If you are unwilling to take your mower in every fall to be "winterized" then you will most likely not be able to start it in the spring. If you do you are lucky. One option is to be sure that your gas tank is drained in the fall so you start out the spring with fresh gas, which may solve the problem. read more

Purchased a new Toro lawn mower in 2008. I have had to bring the mower in every year because it doesn't run correctly but they refuse to repair it under warranty. The problem is identical every year. They do not stand behind their product and the customer service is nonexistent. read more

Fantastic Service from these people, they are extremely helpful. they charge fair prices, and the level of service cannot be matched.
