Jim (Earl's Place) got my JD lawn tractor running again after it blew 3 out of 4 push rods and valves. He showed up at my house, diagnosed the problem, and returned later to fix it. The fee was acceptable and paying was easy with Venmo, Cash App and PayPal. We talked liked neighbors for about 30 minutes when he was done fixing it, as he regaled me with colorful mower stories which convinced me he knows his business. Mower runs great so far. So I was happy with the end result.
Jim has a unique business edge. He makes house calls. This is a big deal when your mower won't run and you have no way to get your rig to his shop. If I was running his business, I would push this advantage. At first, I had called a backyard mechanic but had to find a way to get my tractor to his house. That was a deal breaker. Then I called Earl's Place and put that worry to rest.
The key, however, is patience and acceptance of some odd business practices (in my opinion). I called his number and got his voice mail which said to call the office number. I called and the woman at the other end said to text him as that's how he prefers to communicate. I texted and he texted back quick enough. But business by text?!
Next, he showed up when he said he would to diagnose, then said he had to order parts and said he will see me the following week. Three weeks went by and I finally called him. He said I was on the schedule for that day or next. He showed up ahead of schedule and fixed the problem with a quickness. But I would have been more at ease if he had called or texted with an update in those 3 weeks I waited to hear from him.
I would def recommend Jim and will call him again if I have a problem. Have faith in your fellow man, have some patience, and see what Jim can do for you. I trust him.

Last summer I dropped of my riding lawn mower for service. It needed to have the throttle linkage repaired and adjusted. The mower sat for weeks; when I called, the owner told me his tech was sick. Fast forward another 1.5 weeks and I asked to pick up the mower to take somewhere else. No problem except Earl lost the retaining nut for the linkage. He promised he would order another and personally drive it to me...that never happened. The mower sat for over a month and came back with a missing piece. Don't take anything to this guy...absolutely terrible service.

On 5/12/24 I paid Earl's Place $523 for the purchase of a
bagger attachment for my Troybilt riding lawn mower. I have
not received the bagger or any contact from this business
since about the status of this order. I wrote letters on 6/3
and 7/3 requesting a refund - no responses. On 8/3 I filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau. Please beware of doing business with this company (dba Weeks Services, Jim & Son Corp, Jim Knox owner).

Earls Place will be my go-to moving forward with any and all small engine maintenance/ repair. Jimmy (the owner) made sure from the moment he picked up the mower to the moment he dropped it off I was aware of everything he and his team were doing. Great experience, even told me a thing or two I did not know about my mower. Recommend 10/10.Great honesty, and even better work done. Both which I will say were top tier, and I suggest this business to all who are in need of repairs/ maintenance. Give them a shout!
