And I love that's he a young entrepreneur, and he's doing a practical job to fix things with his hands to help support himself/ his family and help reduce waste in our disposable mindset culture. And when you talk to him, it becomes clear that he has a generally good attitude and is customer-service oriented. I also greatly appreciated that he was patient with the extra time it took me to take the info he gave me and research more, and ask more questions, etc., to make sure I felt comfortable with the work that would be done, and the end price of $120ish was pretty reasonable, in my opinion, to repair a 10-year old Briggs and Stratton mower engine that had started leaking oil profusely when running and hot. I and my children have now used it a few times to mow the yard and it's working great! it seems a little harder for me to pull the starter cord than it did before, but it could just be me, because the children didn't say anything about anything being challenging in any way. They zipped right through mowing like they usually do. He gave me a heads up that he was in the middle of working on a side by side or something when I dropped it off just before July 4, so it took him a few days to give me an initial estimate. Then it took days before I got back to him with the holiday and visiting my mom elsewhere and everything. once I felt comfortable and paid Sam for the invoice, which he sent electronically through email, it was only a few more days before he told me it was done. A few other places I called were booked out at least a couple weeks before I could even drop it off, and it got checked out and repaired while I was elsewhere, so I wasn't home to mow anyway. And other places' hourly shop rates were definitely more! The whole experience was MUCH better than throwing away an inexpensive and repairable mower and then buying a new mower for 3 or 4 times the price of what I paid for repairs or for that mower when it was new, especially when a new main gasket and new spark plug and sharpened blade breathed new life into my current (basic but reliable) Weed Eater brand mower (yes they made a mower back in the day lol!!!). I had just barely changed the air filter so that wasn't needed. Sam answered all my concerns and gave me time to research others' use or not of RTV on the gasket, explained how his invoicing and payment processes worked in advance, etc. and I got it back cleaner than it's looked in years lol. Overall positive experience and I'll definitely take that or another mower to him in the future for repair or maintenance!

True owner operated, mom n pop business for sharpening cutlery of all kinds, for home use and…read morecommercial use, in the handy format of a mobile sharpening truck. The abbreviated review is to say if you're looking for top notch sharpening at super reasonable rates you'll want to find this business. So to start I will link the page on their site that has their scheduled locations. https://tvmsharpening.com/schedule/ Right now they seem to have the truck parked in parking lots of small community grocers. Works for us! They'll also do house calls, if you have the amount of work to justify it. I'm thinking an annual or bi-annual community event in my neighborhood for the truck to park and neighbors to get their knives sharpened would be a great idea. The sharpening tradesman, Robert Barkley, has a sharpening shop set up in the back of the truck and a very nice woman, maybe the missus, is in the front taking in the items to be sharpened, writing out the invoices, providing time estimates for the items to be completed. (Plan on a couple of hours, plus or minus, depending on how many jobs are ahead of you and how many items you have to drop off. They will text you when job is done.) Both delightful people and I knew this would be so when on our first encounter Robert mentioned getting a pair of shears someone had brought in ahead of us as being a "bearcat" to reassemble for the unusual spring mechanism . That is the phrase used by my dad's relatives from the mid-west in the day and it was music to my ears. And to give you an idea of the fun sense of humor of this owner, when I unwrapped the knives at home I found his business card tucked in with a band aid stapled to the back. Sharp knives...band aid.. Clever! ;-) The first tranche of kitchen knives we brought in left the truck the sharpest they've been in a long time! Perfect edges. As a...umm...well seasoned home cook who has been passionate about local food sourcing and cooking for umpteen decades, cooking keeps me sane, this was a great start on the short list of 5 items I gave my husband of umpteen decades "minus" in preparation for a "Big Zero" birthday I have coming up. At the top was, "Get my knives professionally sharpened." Now he can check that one off and move on to the next item on the list. An equally practical entry, "Get my watch band resized." (Lucky for him have always been a cheap date. ;-))
