Richard was able to get my snowblower running smoothly after it sat dormant for about 4 years. He was able to use some gunk-out spray in the carburetor, and after a few starts-and-stops, the engine cranked up to a smoothly running machine. I asked what I could do to avoid this problem in the future, and he said not to use any fuel treatment solutions. Richard suggested that I invest in some ethanol-free fuel, available at Home Depot. I would make only one suggestion to this company, and that is to specify what your service area is. Richard said it took him over an hour to drive to my home, and he was determined to fix the engine so he didn’t have to drive back again. I appreciate small businesses seeking new customers, but sometimes the job location is a bridge too far.

Richard identified and fixed the problem with my riding mower quickly and efficiently. He saved me a ton of time and expense by coming to my house that I would have otherwise had to spend.

Quick response and timely arrival. Be sure to ask them for diagnosis before they dive into a repair. I was told my carburetor needed to be replaced, but was charged way more than the $95 diagnostic fee since they spent a full 3 minutes spraying carb cleaner.

Pro-One Mobile Small Gas Engine Repair's reply

Hi Sachin, thanks for the feedback. The $95 fee includes us driving to your location (mobile) and providing a professional diagnostic to identify the issue. If you only wanted us to provide you with the diagnostic, no problem, we just need to know that when we arrive. We are under the impression that when you ask us to come out, that you want us to repair your equipment, so sorry for the confusion. The $95 travel/diagnostic cost is always rolled into the overall repair with some repairs requiring a carb spray, some need carb spray and specific adjustments, or a carb cleaning, it varies greatly depending on the condition of the carb and equipment itself. Thanks again for working with us! Pro-One

Richard came to my house for an onsite repair of my John Deere riding mover, difficulty starting. He identified the problem and made the required repair. I plan to call reach out to Richard, with all my small engine equipment for service and repair. Lastly, a fair and reasonable price!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I try to be as accurate/fair as possible when it comes to pricing. I'm 100% mobile and come to you so you are investing in convenience as well. There is definitely an advantage to that compared to you having to bring your equipment to a shop and then having to wait weeks to get it repaired. Most of my jobs are complete within an hour or less. I offer volume discounts for jobs over $500.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
You call me or I call you and we discuss the issue and then set up a time for me to come out and get your equipment repaired and running asap. I will travel up to 1 hour radius from Sterling, VA, anything outside of that and I'm not able to help, sorry.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been working on gas engines in general for over 20 years and especially enjoy working on small engines. I always find it a challenge to take a no start engine and get it up and running successfully. I provide a variety of troubleshooting to quickly identify the issue and offer solutions on how to get it repaired and running again. I can install replacement parts and do minor engine servicing.
