About This Repair Shop

Four Generations of Expertise in Chandler Since 1947

In the Arizona desert, the heat and dust demand a lot from your equipment, and having a reliable partner is the only way to stay ahead of the landscape. Since 1947, Stotz Equipment has served the Chandler community as a cornerstone of the local green industry. What began as Arizona Machinery over 75 years ago remains a family-owned legacy, now spanning four generations of the Elder and Rosztoczy families dedicated to those connected to the land.

As a family-owned and operated dealership for nearly eight decades, we bring a level of "informed confidence" to every service request. We understand that your equipment isn't just a machine—it’s your livelihood or the key to your home’s curb appeal. Our mission is to make life easier for our customers through long-term relationships and a commitment to keeping your gear in the field and out of the shop.

Mastery Over Every Engine

Whether you are maintaining a residential backyard or managing a professional landscaping fleet, your tools need to be dependable. Our factory-trained technicians bring decades of combined experience to the service bench, ensuring you aren't battling your equipment while you're trying to work. We specialize in the technical nuances of both handheld power tools and heavy-duty turf machinery.

Our Specialized Maintenance and Repair Services:

  • High-precision carburetor cleans and fuel system service for smooth idling.
  • Full engine diagnostics and electrical troubleshooting for complex repairs.
  • Professional blade sharpening to ensure a clean, healthy cut for your turf.
  • Seasonal tune-ups including spark plug, oil, and filter replacements.
  • Expert service for premier brands including John Deere, Stihl, Honda, and Toro.

The Stotz Equipment Edge

What truly sets us apart is our massive "uptime availability." Because we are part of a unified network across the West, we have access to an unrivaled inventory of parts and technical data that smaller shops simply can't match. This means a quicker turnaround for your essential tools and less downtime for your crew.

We specialize in John Deere uptime, but our expertise extends across the entire spectrum of outdoor power. From high-performance Kawasaki and Kohler engines to specialized Husqvarna gear, our team has the specialized tools and training to provide flexible solutions tailored to your specific needs.

A Community Pillar

The vibe at Stotz Equipment is professional, grounded, and deeply rooted in our founding values of integrity and loyalty. We’ve been a staple of Maricopa County for generations because we prioritize the long-term health of your equipment over a quick transaction.

When you walk through our doors in Chandler, you’re greeted by a team that understands the local soil, the local climate, and the equipment needed to master both.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about lawn mower repair services

Most lawn mowers need annual maintenance including oil changes, blade sharpening, and air filter replacement. In Chandler, AZ, we recommend servicing before the spring mowing season.

Common signs include difficulty starting, uneven cuts, excessive vibration, strange noises, or smoke coming from the engine. Don't ignore these warning signs.

Basic repairs like blade sharpening typically cost $15-$30, while more complex repairs like carburetor rebuilds can range from $50-$150. Get a quote before authorizing work.

If repair costs exceed 50% of a new mower's price, replacement is usually smarter. However, quality mowers are often worth repairing even after many years.

Simple repairs take 1-2 days. More complex engine work may take 3-5 days, especially during peak season in Chandler, AZ when shops are busiest.

Yes. Most repair shops in Chandler, AZ service riding mowers, zero-turns, and tractors in addition to push mowers.

Drain the fuel or run the tank empty, disconnect the spark plug, and clean off excess grass and debris. This helps the technician diagnose issues faster.

Many shops offer pickup and delivery services for an additional fee, especially for riding mowers that are difficult to transport.

Look for shops with good reviews, certified technicians, and transparent pricing. Ask about warranties on parts and labor.

Regularly change the oil, clean or replace air filters, sharpen blades, and use fresh fuel with stabilizer. These simple tasks prevent most common problems.
