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.

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.
