Took my lawn mower blade to get it sharpened. He took it inside and brought back the sharpened blade. However, he used a very coarse grinder that created almost serrated edges on the blade. This would cause the blade to pull and tear the grass instead of making a clean cut. I was very disappointed and asked if he used a 30 degree angle for the grinder, he acted annoyed and said 37 and half degrees! I figured it was useless talking to this guy as he was the master of his universe! It was obvious they don't use professional table mounted Sharpener because the edge was not uniform. It's really disheartening because I had high hopes for this place. read more

Excellent job. These guys are good. Honest, integrity, and they do a really nice job of explaining what is going on with your mower and how they are going to touch it up. I say this as an absolute compliment - this is an old-school way of doing business which I really do appreciate it. Give them a try! This will be your last stop for any lawnmower service you might need. read more

Great place to work with! Serviced my snowblower quickly and efficiently. Great customer service.

I took my leaf blower in for repair. Sterling Mower fixed it in less than 24 hours for a reasonable price. I am very happy with the quick and efficient service! read more

Sterling Mower Repair is an excellent shop with excellent service! My advisor was Chris. He explained the suspected problem with my push mower and gave me the option of having having the shop fix it (7-10 day wait and $56) or providing me a quick fix on the spot for only the cost of the required part ($10). I am a delighted customer! read more

Brought a Stihl gas blower in for repair. The desk personnel were cordial and efficient. I feel the price was very fair and the job was promptly completed, read more

Great place, excellent service, great value. Got my mower back up and running in no time.

Family run business is so true. I've had my John Deere riding lawnmower, John Deere snowblower repaired there. Just very friendly communication from drop off to pick up. read more

I took my EGO mower here in the afternoon on July 21st for a warranty repair and got a call back first thing on the 22nd that it was completed. They had to replace a control board in the main unit. All paid for by EGO. Super fast turnaround time. read more

Very nice professional service. Repaired snowblower engine in less than a week. Thoroughly checked the snowblower operation - not just the engine. Excellent work. They made recommendation for small engine storage for the off season. read more

Best customer service. The guys here are the PRO. They brought my Stihl and Echo blowers back to life a few times over the past 10 years. Best in the area. Highly recommended. read more

These guys were awesome - honest timeline, delivered as promised - fair price. Check 'em out

Sterling mower did the best tune up of my mower that I have ever had. This is the second repair I have had at Sterling Mower. The first time I took an Ego blower that wouldn't work. They were honest enough to say it didn't make sense to repair the blower and that I should just get a new one. They did a detailed tune up, replacing a spring and lubricating the personal pace control on my Toro. I asked them to check the wheels because I had a problem with the drive wheels pulling to the left last summer. They reported the wheels were OK, a bit worn, but with some life in them. At other places a request like that would have been an invitation to replace the wheels. But they said the change would have been expensive. These guys are very honest and reliable. THE BEST in mower repair. read more

Had riding mower worked on. They were ver up front and suggested it really wasn't worth fixing. They just could said x amount of dollars to fix it. Found them to be honest. Will go back there again. Turn around time is Not to bad. Been to other places that were a lot worse read more

Issue: Having carberator issues with my Toro Snowbower. Attemtped to fix myself but after evaluating the issue I knew this issue needed an experienced technician to resolve. Turn-around Time: 14 days I've been taking my power equipment (chain saw, tiller, and snow blower) to Sterling Mower Equipment for maintenance and repair. Their diagnostic evaluation is always spot on, and the outcome of repairs is always positive. This tells me two things: competent experienced technicians, and quality control. I've not found a shop in Loudoun or Fairfax county that can match their abilities. Oh BTW...all their staff are polite and have good customer service skills. Nic and Phil expidited a part issue (not their fault) that delayed the completion of serivce, and stayed late on Friday afternoon to finish the repair so I could pick up the blower the next day. Sterling Mower Repair offers a valuable service to landscapers, and homeowners. It keeps landscapers service up and running which keeps our business landscapes looking professional, and reduces the frustration factor of busy people like myself who simply want to complate my chores on the weekend. Thank you Nic and Phil and staff for providing a valuable service. read more

Sterling Mower has maintained and repaired my mowers and other lawn equipment for 14 years. Their work is excellent, they charge fair prices for their work and they stand behind their work. Sterling Mower's customer service is outstanding. As an added bonus, they sell used mowers at good prices. I highly recmmend Sterling Mower. read more

I was a walk-in. I had a tire I could not get back on the rim. The owner was great. He quickly got the tire back on the rim and installed a new valve stem for me. I appreciated how helpful he was, how his staff was funny and pleasant, and how he gave me a clue how to do the work myself the next time the problem occurred. He also referred me to another company that provides a complementary service. All in all, the best such service I have ever received. read more

I don't pretend to be an overly-handy individual. I am more of a "watch a pro do it and then try myself next time" kind of guy. Well, let's say I had a simple issue with my lawnmower and needed someone's help. I dropped by with it and was in and out in no time because of the extremely helpful staff. The team took a look at it (an issue with the actual frame of the mower) and made the needed fix on the spot. It was a very fair price and the bad boy runs like new again. Most places might say, "well you gotta wait a week because there's a line" but instead they looked at it and realized they had the equipment to make the fix within 5 min and figured to just get me in and out of there was better. That's how it's done! Thanks a ton and I feel confident that the next time I need support on my mower that I know where I'll be taking it. read more

3/17/23 12:44:10pm invoice #2705 Sales order: 1152 I have a horrible experience with this place. People are working in this place are rude and they don't know how to talk with customer. I have used this place few time last year and today I found out that this repair shop charged me more than other places and after I complained; the guy at front desk through the money to my face and told me to go F***yourself front of other employees and they just didn't care. I gave them the money they asked for and I did not insult him but I told them that they would hear from me. However, I have contacted few companies that are using this place for many years and told them the story and hopefully they will no longer be using this place and you should do the same. And this is for sterling Mover repair customer service: If you care about your business, you can call me. I have the person at front desk business card and more information to share with you. John read more

These guys are awesome. Was recommended this shop years back, and NEVER had a problem for my machine service/maintenance.

I have been buying my residential equipment from here for over 30 years. Nick and his crew are always dependable and honest. I have bought new and had items repaired and it really makes a difference to come here to a local shop. They recognize that I have been coming here for a long time and always treat me right. Dave R read more

I am giving a 5-Star review based on the initial phone call and diagnosis. I plan on dropping off my mower with a 2-week wait. Why? Based on comfort with speaking to Sterling Mower Repair. I feel extremely confident they know what is wrong and I am ok with it he turnaround time. I will update once I get the mower back. It sounds like my issue is common with a Toro Briggs & Stratton engine (stalling out after a while even with fresh gas). Fingers crossed! Update: finally dropped off/picked up. It was such a great experience. Why? They will answer any questions, talked to me about the particular mower and it really was a good model (just need tic ale care of it). All done, was less than $100 and runs like new. I ended up buying their non-ethanol gas to remove one of my issues (VP brand). They also cleaned up the mower and I fell back in love with it. read more

First-time customer at Sterling Mower Repair. Bobby, Chris, Nick provided excellent customer service for my lawn mower tune up. This is a family-owned business and it shows from the moment you walk in the door. I will be back. read more

Tires, blades, and batteries, oh my. As a 15 year customer this is a place for both homeowner diy yard work as well as commercial companies. Very helpful and accommodating staff. read more

We use these guys any time something comes up with our equipment. To call them honest and fair is an understatement, my wife and I have actually been concerned that they didn't charge us enough on a couple of occasions, but that's why we won't go anywhere else. If a fix doesn't hold up or they don't get something exactly right, they ALWAYS stand by their work. They also did pickup and delivery of our mower in the winter because we didn't have a way to haul it. read more

I've been going to Sterling Mower for the last couple of years just to sharpen my mower blades. The staff are always professional and responsive getting me out within 10-15 minutes. Their prices are good and you can tell from the line of mowers they have established a good business. I have a lot of confidence if my needs ever extend beyond the blade sharpening that I will bring my mower in for service with them. read more

It is such a great feeling when you have a good customer service experience. I have used Sterling Mower Repair for ....maybe 10 years? Chris and his team have always provided exemplary customer service when I have taken my Snow Blower, Honda Lawnmower, Stihl back pack Blower, Honda Power washer in for service. Most recently I decided on a dedicated edger and with Chris's recommendations, I upgraded to the Stihl KM 56 R Kombi System. Wow! I am not looking to go into the landscaping business but I am a huge fan of, "THE RIGHT TOOL FOR THE JOB" and I couldn't be happier with this system. Chris has fair prices and great service and is a great source of knowledge to help you get the most out of your tools. read more

They are honest experts at repairing and servicing riding and push mowers, generators, snowblowers, and other small-engine machines. They sharpen chain saws, blades, knives, and most tools. They also provide friendly and honest assistance to their customers that need help choosing the equipment, accessories, parts, and supplies they need from top-quality brands they sell, such as Stihl, Oregon, Toro, DR Power, Honda, Kawasaki, Echo, and E-Go. read more

Called twice within a span of a few weeks. Someone answered the phone, took down my phone number, and said the owner will give me a call back. No one ever called back. read more

This is my go-to shop for small engine and equipment repair. Also very fair pricing on professional-grade equipment sales. I've been using them for years to service my chainsaws, pressure washer, etc. Seems like the techs can fix most any problem so long as parts are still available. And they have aftermarket sources for hard to find or discontinued parts. But in my experience, they'll also call you with an honest assessment if they think the repair cost would exceed the value or remaining service life of the equipment. read more

I cant recommend them highly enough! Nick - the owner there - was most gracious. The entire business was really great!

We just had our power washer repaired/fixed there and felt very pleased with their good/quick service together the reasonable lower price to our satisfaction. We would also express our special thanks to the front desk lady Katheryn Guzman who was nice, patient and knowledgeable to explain to us in detail the problem/the fix made and help us perform the test run to ensure all was right. We will definitely recommend this company to all our friends when they have the need. read more

I hesitated to leave this review, thinking "Sterling Mower Repair doesn't really need another 5-star review." But went ahead and did it anyway, as I wanted to emphasize that they do more than mowers. Thus far, I have brought them four outboard boat motors I bought used, and in three of those cases, they had them up and running smoothly in a short time for a reasonable price. (The fourth one was about 50 years old and would have costed more to repair than it was worth, even if the right parts could be located.) But it was that motor that was beyond repair, which got them the five-star rating. They gave me an honest appraisal and recommendation.....and then went a step further. When I expressed my disappointment that I was hoping to have it for vacation, and that even if I bought a new (used) motor, there would not be the two-week window required to have it serviced. They agreed to take a look at my replacement motor, do any minor tweaking necessary, and get it back in time for my vacation. Well as it turned out, it needed more than minor tweaking, but they indeed had it ready for my vacation. It runs like a charm, and I am writing this review from a wi-fi hotspot in the Maine mountains. read more

Great service, prices, and people. Brought my riding mower in for repair, they gave me a quick assessment of the problem, an accurate price estimate, and a reasonable time frame for repair. The job was done on time and under budget. I highly recommend this place! read more

Top notch sales and repair services. Fair market price, payment in line with estimate, Honda mower HRX running like a Swiss watch after being repaired it, and picked it up a couple of days before expected. I can't complaint. read more

My husband and I took our equipment here and walked away talking about our experience. The interaction with Nick was rare. He is not a fast talker or about making money. He is there to educate, answer questions and get you what you need, even if its not what you want (customers usually over spend based on our "research" of what we need). I recommend this local shop for any repairs or new outdoor equipment. read more

Took almost 2 months to repair my lawnmower. I called four times they call zero times. Each time they had an excuse but notinformation

What a great bunch of guys. In this area I feel people are often overcharged and outright scared by service companies due to us having a higher level of average income. This is not one of those places. You can see from all the reviews, they are great. No nonsense, good advice and good prices. read more

It's hard to find a small engine shop when it comes to good customer service and a fair price. I needed a pump for my pressure washer so I called and they had one in stock. When I got there Nick had it pulled and ready to go. He took the time to go over a few 'tricks' should I have any problems and even threw me some extra washers just in case. Highly recommend! read more
