About
I am a bilingual U.S. Military Veteran with over 63 years of work/life experience. I have been a successful small business owner and a Construction Manager during that time. I’m a part-time Commercial Electrician and a full-time small engine repairman. I do some light residential electrical work and ON-SITE/AT YOUR HOME lawn mower repairs/maintenance the remainder of the time. I have been doing electrical work and small engine repair for the past 15 years. All my electrical experience has been with a licensed electrician. I have all the latest and best diagnostic equipment and tools to troubleshoot and/or fix just about any electrical and/or most small engine issues. NO JOB IS TOO SMALL, I cannot stress that enough and I do not charge like the big companies would for the same job in order to cover their excessively larger overheads. I offer exceptional work at an extremely fair/affordable price and I won’t take on a job that I can’t complete in a timely and professional manner. I pay the closest attention to detail. And in all honesty, If I can’t complete the job to a customer’s satisfaction I don’t charge them. My single most important goal is customer satisfaction. I will treat and work on your home and yard machine with the same love and respect I show to my own home and equipment. If you are not 100% satisfied with my work, then you won’t have to pay. Isn’t that what everyone is hoping for in an honest handyman and small engine technician?? I hope I can be YOUR GUY!

My Guy Gil is definitely my Guy Gil moving forward. I contacted Gil to work on 3 different mowers including commercial zero turn and 2 riding mowers. Each had different issues which Gil identified, ordered the correct parts to replace, installed them and got each mower going good as new. Gil communicated promptly with me anytime I contacted him. I will definitely be calling on Gil for any and all of my future needs concerning handyman/ lawn equipment maintenance/ repair. Gil had me use each machine before he even put up his tools up to make sure that they operated properly and that I was completely satisfied with the work done. Folks… that’s very rare these days.No I’m not any kind of to Gil, just a super happy customer that could do nothing but smile once Gil finished up knowing things were taken care of and my mowers are back to good.

Gil responded quickly to our request for repair of our riding mower. He was on time, and let us know the battery was low. He explained about doing a full tune up and we went ahead with it. Our mower should be hood for another 5+ years! Gil is a treasure, he has a pleasant demeanor and had everything with him to get the job done.

Gil was very easy to work with and definitely knew his stuff! I had him replace the upper drive belt on my troy belt mower. The job went super smooth. The belt had not actually broken yet, but the mower was going slower and slower, especially up inclines. Gil put a high-quality belt on it and it runs better than it has in five years.

Arrives on time and went right to work. He got my rider mower purring like a kitten. Very professional, polite, and personable. Will definitely be hiring again. Many thanks Gil

Fantastic service. Gil listened to what I said and scheduled an appointment. He kept me up to date with his ETA and arrived on time. I'm big on communication and Gil did a great job with this. I understand some calls last longer than expected so I don't have a problem with a schedule change if necessary. Gil gave me a window of time and notified me when he was on the way. The service was professional and he even gave me some useful tips for maintenance between service calls. I highly recommend Gil for any small engine repairs.
