Winterization is the visit before the mower sits. The price is $100, flat, and the visit is included. We install a fuel cutoff, drain old fuel, and disconnect the battery. That is the list. We do not fold a full service into it unless you ask for that visit instead.

Fuel left in the tank is how a lot of spring no-starts begin. If the machine is already broken, that is the repair path: the first visit is $150. A loaner mower is available while waiting on the part.

Why people book winterization

  • Reason 01

    A short list

    Installing a fuel cutoff, draining old fuel, and disconnecting the battery.

  • Reason 02

    Flat, visit included

    $100. There is no separate trip charge on winterization.

  • Reason 03

    Not a hidden tune-up

    Full service is a different visit, with its own push and riding prices.

What winterization includes

Winterization includes installing a fuel cutoff, draining old fuel, and disconnecting the battery. If you also want oil, plugs, filters, and a blade, that is full service.

  • Installing a fuel cutoff
  • Draining old fuel
  • Disconnecting the battery

How a winterization visit works

Onsite service is typically within 2–3 days. The van carries common parts and consumables, so many repairs finish on the first visit. A request is confirmed by reply; a time slot is not guaranteed when the request is submitted.

  1. Step 01

    Request

    Send the machine, the address, and what it is doing. A photo helps.

  2. Step 02

    We confirm

    We reply to confirm the drive and the work. Submitting the form does not hold a time slot.

  3. Step 03

    On site

    We work in the yard, driveway, or garage. Common parts are on the van.

Questions about winterization

What does a visit cost?

Two paths. Just needs service: No repair needed. Flat price. Visit included. Full service is $150 for a push mower and $200 for a riding mower, including oil change, spark plug(s), fuel filter, blade sharpening, air filter cleaned (replaced if needed, included), belt check, and grease and lube. Winterization is $100, including installing a fuel cutoff, draining old fuel, and disconnecting the battery. Something's broken: the first visit is $150. Covers diagnosis. If the fix is simple, the repair is done on that visit for $150 total. If a part must be ordered and we return, the price is $150 first visit + $50 return trip + the cost of the part. A loaner mower is available while waiting on the part. Those published prices are for mowers. Trimmers, blowers, chainsaws, pressure washer repair, and blade sharpening by itself are quoted on site.
