Basic mower service that gets everything running properly. Blade sharpened, new spark plug, clean air filter, fresh oil. Your mower will start first pull and cut cleanly instead of tearing the grass. Done properly, not rushed.
A knackered mower makes mowing miserable. Blunt blades tear grass instead of cutting it (making lawns look brown and tatty), dirty air filters make engines struggle, and old spark plugs mean endless yanking on the pull cord.
A basic service sorts all this out. We sharpen the blade properly (not just run a file over it), fit fresh consumables, clean the deck, and get everything running smoothly. Your mower will work like it should.
### Service Checklist

Everything gets checked as we go. **Step 3: Test and handover** - We run the mower to make sure it starts easily and runs smoothly.

Good to Know
Bring the mower to our workshop or we come to you - depends on your preference and location. We'll need to keep it for a few hours, sometimes overnight if we're busy. Booking in winter is cheaper and you skip the spring queue. If your mower is ancient and constantly breaking, we'll be honest about whether it's worth servicing or better replaced.
Frequently Asked Questions about Mower service basic in Sidmouth
What's included in a basic mower service?
We sharpen the blade, change the oil, clean or replace the air filter, fit a new spark plug, clean the deck, and check cables and controls. Basically everything needed to keep a mower running properly.
How much does a basic mower service cost?
From £60 for the first hour. Most basic services take 1-1.5 hours depending on mower condition. Price includes standard parts like spark plugs and oil. Replacement blades or major parts are extra.
When should I get my mower serviced?
Once a year, ideally before the mowing season starts. Spring is busy for us, so booking in late winter is smart. If your mower struggled last season, get it done now rather than waiting until the grass is long.
Can you service ride-on mowers?
Yes, though they take longer and cost more due to complexity. Call us to discuss your specific model. We'll let you know if it's something we can handle or needs a specialist.
