Mobile small engine repair · Ozark, Missouri · Since 1995
Mr. Mower is run by Jason Mower — yes, that is genuinely the name on his license, and yes, he has heard the joke. Thirty years of fixing mower problems in southwest Missouri, except now the shop comes to you. No hauling a dead mower into a truck. No dropping it off and waiting three weeks in the middle of May.
$59 mobile service call — diagnosis included.We come to you, repairs done at your place.Every brand, push mower to zero-turn.
What we work on
Two-stroke and four-stroke, push and ride, any brand. Most of what we see is a carburetor, a fuel problem, or a part that's been run past its life — and most of that gets fixed right there in the driveway, out of the truck.
Push mowers, self-propelled, riders and zero-turns. Full season tune-up on site: oil, plug, air filter, blade sharpen and balance, deck clean-out, cable and belt check.
Handheld two-stroke work — the machines that sat all winter with old gas in them. Chain sharpening and bar service done while we're at your place.
Off-season equipment, best serviced before you need it. Get the generator running in October, not during the outage — and off-season calls get scheduled a lot faster than May ones.
Some repairs need a bench, a press, or a part that has to be ordered — engine rebuilds, transmissions, cracked decks. When that happens we load it, take it, fix it, and bring it back to you running.
Common jobs
There are two ways to get a machine looked at, and they're priced differently. Everything below is labor plus common parts on typical residential equipment — you get a firm number before we touch anything past the estimate.
One flat service call covers the drive out and the diagnosis, so there's no separate look-at-it fee. You get a firm quote before any work starts; the repair itself is on top of the $59.
Diagnosis only, and it comes off the bill if the repair is done within 30 days. Call or text first and we'll set up a time and give you directions.

Parts at cost plus a flat markup — you'll see the part on the ticket. If a machine isn't worth the repair, we'll tell you that instead of selling you the job.
How it works
Tell us the machine and what it's doing. Text is usually fastest — a photo of the model tag helps a lot.
We give you the first window we can get to — usually a few days out, longer once spring hits. Nothing for you to load or tow.
The $59 service call covers the trip and the diagnosis, so you get a real answer and a firm number for the repair. Nothing gets fixed before you say go.
Most repairs happen right there at your place, and we start it in front of you before we pack up. Bench jobs get hauled in and brought back running.
Service area
We cover Ozark and roughly 25 miles around it. Farther out than that, call anyway — if we're already headed that direction we'll work you in.
No storefront to visit — that's the point. Everything happens at your address.

Questions we get
It really is. Jason Mower — it's on the driver's license, and it's the reason this business had a name before it had a single customer. It got a lot of laughs and then it got a lot of work.
That's the whole idea. The truck carries the tools, the common parts and the sharpener, so most repairs happen right there in your driveway instead of on a bench across town. You never load a dead mower into anything.
Depends how the machine gets to us. If we come to you, it's a $59 service call with the diagnosis included — one flat number covering the trip out and the answer. If you haul it to us instead, diagnosis is $40, and that comes off the bill as long as the repair happens within 30 days. Either way you get a firm quote before anything gets fixed.
Almost never. Gas goes bad in a few months and gums up the carburetor, and that is the single most common repair we do. Usually a clean or a rebuild, not a new machine — and usually handled right there at your place.
Every brand. Honda, Toro, Husqvarna, Stihl, Craftsman, Cub Cadet, Troy-Bilt, Echo, big-box or dealer — if we can get parts for it, we can fix it. Thirty years in southwest Missouri means we've seen most of it.
Yes, and it's the cheapest thing you can do for your lawn — a dull blade tears grass instead of cutting it. Blades get sharpened and balanced on site, and two or more brings the price per blade down. Worth knowing if you run a multi-blade deck, or if the neighbor wants theirs done at the same time.
We won't promise same-day — we'd rather give you a straight answer than a date we can't hit. Most of the year we're out to you within a few days. April and May are another story; that's when everyone discovers their mower at once. Off-season is always the fastest time to get a machine serviced.
