๐ŸŒ€ Mower & Equipment Blade Sharpening

Our blade sharpening in Dawsonville, GA covers mower blades from push mowers, riding mowers, lawn tractors and zero-turns, plus blades from other outdoor power equipment. Every mower blade is sharpened and balanced, because an unbalanced blade shakes the mower and wears out spindles and bearings. A sharp blade cuts the grass cleanly instead of tearing it, so your lawn looks better and stays healthier. Not sure about a blade? Call or text (706) 397-7290.

  • Mower blades brought in off the mower: $6.00 per blade
  • Mower brought in for blade sharpening: our minimum repair charge applies
  • Other equipment blades: call or text for pricing

๐ŸŒ๏ธ Reel Mower Sharpening

We offer reel mower sharpening in Dawsonville, GA for reel mowers. A reel mower cuts like scissors: the spinning reel blades shear grass against a fixed bedknife, so both have to be sharp and set to just touch. Backlapping runs the reel in reverse with a lapping compound between the reel and bedknife, which hones the two edges to each other and restores a clean, scissor-like cut. Call or text for pricing on your mower.
