A Legacy of Power Across the Midwest
When your livelihood depends on equipment that starts every single time, you need a partner who understands that "up-time" is everything. Since 1947, Buckeye Power Sales has been that partner for the Midwest. What began as a small distributorship has evolved over 75 years into a family-led powerhouse with 11 locations across Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois.
Today, we serve everyone from local homeowners who want to "mow like the pros" to massive construction fleets requiring heavy-duty reliability. We maintain the local, family-owned touch that has been our hallmark for three generations.
Engineering Excellence Since 1947
We don’t just move boxes; we maintain the mechanical heart of your operations. Our service departments are staffed by experts who bring "informed confidence" to every repair, ensuring your equipment receives premium care rather than just a quick fix.
Our Specialized Technical and Power Services:
- Precision carburetor cleans and fuel system tuning for peak engine efficiency.
- Full engine rebuilds and maintenance for high-performance mowers and standby generators.
- Professional blade sharpening and routine service to protect your investment.
- Inherited technical expertise as the oldest signed Kohler distributor in the country.
The Buckeye Edge: Unmatched Resources
What truly sets us apart is our scale and historical depth. We’ve spent decades partnering with the strongest manufacturers in the industry—names like Kohler, Rehlko, and Toro—to ensure our customers have access to world-class machinery.
Our edge lies in our ability to provide a full-service experience that big-box retailers simply can’t match. With over 250 employees, we have the logistical strength to handle large-scale construction equipment and complex power systems while remaining accountable to every neighbor we serve.
Professional Reliability, Local Heart
The vibe at Buckeye Power Sales is one of focused professionalism. We operate as a "superstore" for lawn and garden gear, yet we maintain the neighborly accountability of a third-generation business.
When you visit any of our locations, you’re stepping into a legacy of local success where the goal is to provide resources and reliability long after the sale is finalized. We invite you to experience why the pros have trusted us for over seven decades.

What People Say About This Shop
The maintenance team at BPS is top-notch! They provide quality parts and service to keep equipment running at peak performance. Highly recommend our first and only choice for mower care.
Haven’t visited in years, but they had what I needed and service was quick. Prices are high, but the products are quality and the staff is very professional. When I bought my Stihl chainsaw years ago, they gave a thorough tutorial to ensure safe operation.
I’ve been coming here for years and always have a pleasant experience. Don Barney is great at understanding my needs, and the young man loading fertilizer has been amazing always kind and smiling. Keep it up, Buckeye!
Everyone I spoke with at BPS was great and answered all my questions. My zero-turn came back looking like new, and the delivery team was friendly and helpful. I highly recommend BPS for all your buying and service needs.
From my first contact with Chris Ferguson, I knew BPS was the right choice. He was very helpful and quick to follow up when needed. This was my first purchase, but it won’t be my last!
Great experience! Communication leading up to the purchase was excellent, and the staff was very helpful with payment and processing. All equipment was ready to go, fully operational with manuals, and even came with a BPS hat thanks so much!
Took my zero-turn in for a tune-up on Monday, and it was done by Wednesday. Great communication and upfront details. Will definitely return for service and when it’s time for a new mower!
Do yourself a favor and check their BBB complaints before shopping here there are multiple issues across various products. We didn’t, and it turned out to be a very big mistake. Live and learn!
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 Blacklick, OH, 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 Blacklick, OH when shops are busiest.
Yes. Most repair shops in Blacklick, OH 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.
