I charge $45 plus parts for a tune up. This includes an oil change, air filter filter replacement, fuel filter replacement, spark plug replacement, and a general lubrication of moving components. $35 if it’s a 2 stroke and doesn’t get an oil change. I don’t package parts into the cost of a tune up because different machines get different parts. Blade sharpening is a separate service ($8 per blade plus $19.50 if it’s a riding mower). I get some people that come in specifically asking for a tune up, other times I suggest it while fixing another problem. Sometimes it’s the first time a mower has been serviced. If they changed the spark plug and filters last season, usually I don’t recommend doing a full tune up unless they want to. Just an oil change and blade sharpening on a mower. Typically I recommend the full tune up about every 3 years, but I always check the air filter at every service. I’ve had some customers come in with their mower asking for a tune up when it won’t start at all. I always ask for approval and give the customer an estimate before going forward with any repairs (of course unless they ok’d something when they dropped it off), saves a headache when they come to pick it up
Your pricing is fair. I usually add a couple of bucks for things like, canned lube, nuts or bolts that may be missing, etc. My tune ups consist of a plug, filter, oil, blade sharpen and a quick cleaning. If a customer lies to me, the charge goes up. I had a customer that I replaced a carb on a water pump, week later he said the pump is not working, I found that the gas he used was from an old rusty gas can and had water in it. I repaired it for free and told him to find another shop to do his work. That was the second time he did not tell me the truth about an engine that needed work. Thanks for the video.
Good service and a fair price always does the trick. Reminding them you appreciate them bring the job to you is always big as well. Sounds like your upfront and honest with them, I can't imagine them going anywhere else. Good job my friend.
I pretty much always check valve clearances. I have gotten three mowers out of the trash so far that just needed a valve adjustment, and it certainly makes them easier to start in most cases.
What you can charge has a lot of variables, but I feel like the key is to be fair and upfront with customers. For a basic tune-up, it's $40-50 for air filter, spark plug (clean or replace), oil change, and blade sharpen. If you need a new blade, it's $10-15 (I buy in bulk) on top of that. If it's a new customer without any history of maintenance, it goes up to $50-60 for the first one. I'll keep the old spark plug if it's in decent condition, since there's always a chance of needing one for a cheap flip machine. If my kid is "helping", it'll likely get a free under-deck clean and washing lol. I can usually get a basic tune up done in 30-45 mins. I've had a handful of customers call back same day or even a day or two later that it stopped running - if it's simply a fuel contamination issue, I generally educate and get running at no charge. The good will generally goes a long way and brings repeat business or referrals. If the customer is a regular, I have been known to include some extra freebies along the way such as spare air filters or extra string for a trimmer.
@@INSIDEHOUSEGARAGE Thanks! You do a fantastic job on your projects and the channel. I recently had a new customer contact me, bc she had 2 Honda mowers not running. When I went to pick them up and look them over, turns out her neighbor had used it and shut the fuel valve off. Opening that, it started within 2 pulls. A lot of people would just pick it up, take it back, and charge.
Im from nz and do small motor repair from home for friends and family. I charge them $50 for the work plus cost of parts. Ps great videos they have helped me alot along the way
I charge $75 and that includes going through the carb, oil change,air filter,spark plug,blade sharpen, and if it needs anything else I advise the customer, if it needs wheels or a cable, charge for parts only usually advise them when dropping off!I can get about 8 a day and that isn’t a bad price for me! I could charge more but lose customers that bring other things that pay more as well!
That looks like a flathead engine. Rather difficult to adjust the valves on. I just mess with small engines as a hobby and don't charge much. Usually just replace broken or badly worn stuff and replace oil. I occasionally salvage a mower from the dumpster for the challenge to keep the brain and fingers active. I appreciate your cleaning stuff before working on them. It's hard trying to find bolts/screws when buried in crud. Thanks for the information and another interesting video.
Congratulations! You're the first to notice it! It would be an inspection on this one, I got it confused for the other mower that was sent with this, that was OHV Briggs. Nice attention to detail.
In Southern California: Side hustler pricing (my friend). Oil change, carburetor clean and new air filter and plug $85-100 Legit Brick and mortar Mower shop: $250-$500. The shop will not accept mower unless its a $100 minimum.
I charge $75 if its running when they bring it to me. New oil and filter. Sharpen blade, scrape the underside, and lube all the wheels. If they dont need the air filter, i send a new one with them for later. Powerwash the exterior. I work full time and build/rescue junk like you do and some repair work. I dont advertise and do it for free with family and friends.
Hey Eric I agree with your pricing. I don’t whip through a repair. I take my time. I’m sure it takes me longer than most mechanics would. If I were to charge by the hour it would just cost too much. I am also guilty of not charging enough, because my wife said so. However most customers know that and some understand and will give me a tip. I should add that I mainly do repairs for family friends and neighbours so I’m not out to make a killing off of them. Cheers
I have been charging $50 plus parts for simple push mowers. I do a lot of fuel system and carburetor cleans for $40. I'm probably going to raise prices this year. Local shops are $100 hr labor now!
That's a very reasonable amount for what you do. You could charge more though. Even the basic tools you use are worth something, the consumables like grease and oil need to be accounted for too.
In your situation with no employees or overhead, I agree with your price and would happily pay it for the work done in this video. If I took it somewhere (I do all my own) I would expect to pay twice if not more than that
Have a flat hourly rate and retail proces for parts. Diagnostics is also based upon your hourly rate. You never know what you will find and there will always be someone who thinks you overcharged thenm anyway. Try and be competitive with other small independent repair persons in your area. $80 is not bad for all that you do as part of your tuneup. Again, repeat customers deserve some slack by 10% using your judgmnent, Also, as you do, contact the customer if additional parts are needed and the extra labor as needed. I think you go abive and beyond the norm overall. Customers should appreciate your efforts and work ethics.
With this whole money issue, I have question for someone with experience. I have a small 148cc Briggs & Stratton engine on a basic mower (no bag hatch or height adjustment) and a larger Briggs & Stratton mower with a better deck(no pealing paint), bag attachment, and adjustable height. The larger mower's carb throttle is broken, and I haven’t been able to fix it. Should I swap the running engine onto the nicer deck or leave everything as is? I’d prefer not to spend extra money. How about blade?
@@INSIDEHOUSEGARAGEI have had it for a while, but never tried to manually prime it... Im also not sure what to do with it because of the part on the carburetor that is broken
They get what they pay for plus my time to do the work. Rates for labor is standard. Parts depends upon what is needed. Standard service is between $60-100 plus parts, taxes.
what do you do if you find a split (worn thru) blade ? i'm thinking someone might possibly sue , if injured by one after you've serviced their mower ..
well you have some options, if they're unwilling to agree to a new blade then communicate to them, thru text, about your concerns. That way you have evidence of your interactions if they do go thru legal channels. The other option would be to offer a used blade from a different parts machine as a compromise.
I always stick to the low side when it comes to charging, and it has definitely bitten me a few times. That's kinda why I asked the question. I know I work too cheap. While I'm certainly no expert, it also isn't fair to other people that are trying to make a living if I am severely undercutting everyone and forcing other people to charge less than they could otherwise get for their services. The overhead issue is part of the situation. I pay a small note on my shop, but that is really the only cost that I have, since most of my parts and tools come from the proceeds from the machines I flip.
I charge 20 to 50 dollars less then the pros, I'm quicker, I go to them, and it's done when I leave thier home. They order the parts I tell them to get, once they have the parts in hand, then I set the day, and time to do the work, usually 80 to 150 ie 80 for push mowers, and up depending on what parts I am replacing, 125 to 250 and up for tractor work, that's for tuneups, and depending on what needs to be replaced.
You’ve made me realize I don’t charge enough. 🤔 I will be re-evaluating my price structure. I’m a small engine mechanic by trade, along with some other repairs / projects on the side when not addressing engines. By the way, have you ever thought about offering to put metal (particularly copper) inserts into wheels with worn out sleeves? This will double or triple the life of the wheel and make the newer mowers feel like they were made decades ago with better quality materials. This is a service I learned a year or two ago. It has to be done “homemade” as you find the right diameter copper tubing and cut it to size, just a bit shorter than the shaft that the wheel mounts on. 1/2 inch “Type L” standard plumbing copper pipe usually works pretty good. You’ll need to drill the wheel with a 5/8” drill bit, so the half inch bushing you just made will press in to the wheel.
thanks and yes, you should reconsider your pricing, as things have changed drastically in the last 10 years. Even though the price for a carb and other parts, may have only changed by a bit, your time is now worth more than ever, so don't short changed yourself. Yes I have considered it, but when given an opportunity, most customers, don't seem to care and are unwilling to pay for the service. If it was my own tho, yes, I'd definitely consider it.
I charge in risk… if anyone wants me to fix something I’ll have them pay the parts but it’s at risk of me making the problem worse as I am everything but a good mechanic 😂😂😂
Hey bro what's up? Before I knew how to service my equipment from viewing your videos, I would typically pay about $250 TTD for servicing my equipment. That's excluding the cost of parts for my equipment.
Depending on parts pricing, I know not OEM and from China you could get away with $80 easily and be happy and the customer. Today is different, th hose cheap parts aren’t that cheap any more, and if you want OEM well that’s a ball breaker. I have stock so I’m able to say this in this pack is this much, or OEM is this much to service easily bring it up on search, or the customer can provide the parts themselves, if they think it’s expensive.😊 Even oil has increased, I sell some oil on the side well they want it cheap but it’s not, I offer them the cheaper option for a larger container into a used oil container, I collected then they don’t seem to want, they won’t the best but at budget prices.😊
I inspired a video, lol. I'm famous. Thanks for delving into it. I just want to see what works for other people so that I can come up with a rough idea of how it is best to go about it.
Never under value yourself, yes you are not a pro, but remember a pro shop has a ton of overhead, insurance, and have to pay electricity, gas, parts markup, and employees, but like I said never undervalue yourself, I've been asked many times, why I charge what I charge, and I explain why, and how, and my many years of experience, 45+ and they come around, and they realize they are in good hands.
is a tune up ever just a tune up 9/10 times more work is required as the average person thinks a general service fixes everything i've got a friend of the family's ride on mower in my garage it was dropped off running on one cylinder they did not even notice as soon as it fired i knew just needs a new deck belt they said it's gotten too long and keeps throwing off they could not have been more wrong so far it's needed 2 spindles 1 pulley 2 bearings a coil and half the engine rewired as most of it was solder and electrical tape now i'm chasing a kill wire diode problem the other problem i have is when you explain all the extra problems you have found they have no idea what you are talking about and blindly say JUST FIX IT then complain about the bill
you are so right about all that. I try my best not to overwhelm them, and hope they understand that at was "way past" just needing a service. Thank you brining this up. I might have to do a video on riding mowers too.
