Al's Lawn Mower & Small Engine Repair Shop | Experienced Landscaping in Detroit, MI

A properly tuned mower with sharp blades cuts grass cleanly instead of tearing it. Healthy, clean-cut grass grows thicker, which helps the soil absorb rainwater more effectively and reduces runoff. Dull blades can damage grass, making it vulnerable to disease and creating thin spots where water pools instead of draining.

Absolutely. We frequently repair trimmers that won't start due to old fuel, clogged carburetors, or worn spark plugs—common issues after winter storage. Getting your trimmer running is key for maintaining drainage ditches and gutter lines around your Detroit home, preventing blockages that lead to standing water.

Yes, it's a smart move. A core aerator creates holes in your lawn to alleviate soil compaction, a major cause of poor drainage in our area. By aerating first, you soften the ground, making it easier to locate and repair sprinkler line leaks without causing further damage to your turf. We can service your aerator to ensure it's ready for the job.
