Really rude people. Need to go to customer service training or something. First, the place looks closed. Then you get in and its all dark. The young woman at the counter acts like youre bothering her when you ask for stuff and want to pay for stuff. Nobody comes to talk to you about how much the stuff costs or what it does. This is why small business fails and big business thrives. I really want to give my money to a local small business more than Lowes or evil Home Depot, but more than that, I need good customer service. This place needs a serious wake up call. Ill go back in about a year and see if theyve gotten their act together.

Top notch service! I purchased an enclosed trailer, ExMark mower and some other accessories. I was in and out in no time and wasnt trying to be persuaded to purchase items I did not need. They will continue to earn my business.

When this placed opened up roughly 20 years ago they actually cared and had good equipment for sale, now theyre all about money with trash equipment that continuously breaks down. So now when it breaks they fix it and youre back in the next week or 2 getting it fixed again. Buyer beware...

I am 100% Customer at this Business today and buy everything I need from there what ever it might be from repairs buying equipment or parts and friendly today was my worst day at Tools for Time. There was no greetings like I will be with you shorty. I spend a total of over an hour there today getting parts?that I needed took to long getting the parts and supplies that I needed and then were out of stock on common parts for anyone need a simple part. I will continue to shop. All I ask is for the people that are helping people know what they are doing even if they are new to the Business. Thank you for everything . I will still do business so friendly......

This business has poor customer skills they dont know anything about what there selling they post bad reviews on small business sites to make them look better. my wife had a bad personal experience with you she left a 1 star because of the experience she had at your business. you want more stars do better..... you had no right to to give us stars we did not do any service for you we were the customer .i dont know if you know how that works or not Brendan. if your going to give a review it should not be personal its just business. if you notice i did not make this personal like you Brendan. we will not be doing business in the future nor would i recombed you to anyone else i hope your customers see this and realize how petty you are . i dont post reviews on anyone else site just ones that that deserve the review and I have done business with. I have plenty of work and dont need to belittle you to get what need

I was too lazy to sharpen the blades from my mower. Called and spoke with a friendly rep who confirmed they provided that service and provided a ballpark price. Took the blades in and the sharpening work was performed and the blades returned to me while the cashier was still ringing up the sale. Fast, friendly service for just over half of what the near-by shop I usually patronize charges.

Great service, fairly priced equipment and tools. Check here before you go to Home Depot or Lowes and Rent A Tool theyre much cheaper. Thanks for the pole saw fellas and helping me figure out which one I needed. I couldnt even get anyone at Lowes to help me or that was knowledgeable like yall. God bless.

I had the best experience just the other day. the sales rep Hunter went out of his way to make sure he sold me the right mower for the work I do. I went in a week earlier and had my old mower serviced and it was 10 years old. unfortunately the motor was shot. I was not expecting to have to buy a new mower, but Hunter made me feel very comfortable with the process . Hunter explained all the safety features and let me demo the mower so I can feel comfortable with the mower. I cant say enough how well I was treated. Will be coming back for all my lawn products and services

I have known Rebecca for years now, she is trustworthy, incredibly intelligent,witty compassionate and empathetic in servicing her customers. I believe she can thrive in anything she does. She genuinely cares about who she is helping. She knows how to communicate with anyone. She is an exemplary saleswomen and I would make a purchase from her any day. I am blessed to know her and I believe anyone in her presence is lucky to have her time and attention.

They are great people to do business with. Always friendly and willing to help with questions that you may have. They stock many parts to get you back up and running again. An if you own a lawn business like I do time is everything. There service department is top notch as well. They go the extra mile for there customers! They are the dealer of choice for Todds Lawn Mowing Service.

This is a great shop. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Easy to deal with and competitive prices on equipment. Only negative would be the only work in the brands of equipment they sell. I guess that could be a positive too since they are very knowledgeable on those brands.

I stopped by today, while preparing for hurricane Dorian, to see if they sold generator parts. The response was, “We are not selling generator parts TODAY. We are just selling complete generators.” I then went to Northern Tool and they said they would check to see if they had the parts I needed and would GIVE them to me if they had them.

Review №35

As a home owner with a fairly small yard I had never seen the need to invest in quality equipment until I found Tools For A Time. Instead of buying cheap equipment every season from the big box stores I’m saving money in the long run and a lot of headaches by buying the best.Whether it’s my Honda generator, Echo Backpack Blower, or Chainsaw, they start the first pull every time I need them. Even though I haven’t needed them it is also nice to know that a quality, trustworthy service team is standing by ready to help.Quality equipment from a locally owned business is a win-win for me and the community.

Words cannot express how well of an experience I just had with this store. I had an issue getting my chainsaw back together after I was a little over zealous trying to fix it myself and they literally worked until the final minute they were open to get me taken care of! Everyone I spoke with was very kind and professional as well. Consider this small business for your outdoor power equipment needs, I know I will certainly be back!

They have earned themselves a life long customer! Every time I go up there, someone is always instantly ready to help with whatever I need. Not only that but they are a business that isnt afraid to proclaim the name of Jesus Christ! Tonight I was handed a tin of candy and a Christmas card after making a purchase of only $1.14. Youve made my day! God bless you all!

So if you purchase equipment and have an issue they dont want to help... They expect you to deal with manufacturer directly. Very friendly when purchasing $20,000 worth of equipment but 30 days later its not like it was. Very dissatisfied with the customer service. I had better service at McDonalds!

Review №58

This place is awesome! I met the owners about a year ago when we moved here. They are life-long residents of Jacksonville who are heavily involved in our community, extremely charitable, patriotic to the core, and committed to their values and beliefs. I purchased all my lawn equipment (non-commercial) from them and they were amazing! Even though much of their business is commercial, and the few thousand dollars we were spending was relatively insignificant, they were highly professional and helped us navigate the lawn care purchase world. I love my Exmark and we actually have a family rotation because everyone wants a turn cutting the grass.I’m sure there are times they can’t repair someone’s mower in an hour, or get blamed for inoperable equipment, or actually charge for rentals. And yes, they’re closed on Sundays (a decision I highly respect and support). But get to know the Tools For A Time family and you’ll see a great group of people who know their products, take care of their customers, and live out their mission. Our family loves Tools For A Time!

Tools for a Time, what’s not to like!!! I am the owner of Pulley Lawn Care and Pressure Washing LLC. I started looking for commercial lawn care equipment a few years ago. One of the first places I visited was Tools for a Time to get acquainted with products and services they offered here for my new business endeavor. I did visit a few other distributors to weigh out my options and see who offered the best products, quality, and services. After doing my research I have found that hands down Tools for a Time offers the Absolute Best in all areas. Definitely one of the biggest influences for me was the staff, they are for all intensive purposes a commercial retailer of Lawn Care Products, but also offer much more than just that. It is very important to me to support local businesses, as my entire family for generations have been small business owners in Jacksonville for the past fifty years. I knew this was the right fit for my business needs, aside from extraordinary prices, quality, and service, they are also a Christian based organization here in Mandarin, Florida! They are not here to just sell you on their products to put on a dog and pony show, they are True Professionals! Words I personally use to describe the team here from the Owner to the staff would be, HONESTY, INTEGRITY, and EXCELLENCE! One of the team members I have had privilege to meet and interact with is MRS REBECCA LYNN. She is very personable, knowledgeable, and strives to give the absolute best in customer service. Please understand this is not your typical “car lot mentality business,!” Mrs. Rebecca is not their to tell you what you want to hear to make a quick sale for business or personal gain. She is dedicated to inform and provide knowledgeable advice that suits your specific business needs! One other aspect that has been my opinion since day one, is the level of customer service. Rebecca, as well as, the entire staff are welcoming to discuss your business needs and also know that it’s important to get to know each individual customer / guest on a personal level. Too many times in many other businesses people are not interested in making a connection or find a commonality, which is vital in customer service and sales! When you become a part of this family they all are Truly wanting to build a relationship with you that gives you a true sense of belonging and importance, vs. trying to give the the fast talk and be done with you once you are out the door. All I can say is, do your research, be informed! Once you talk to Rebecca or any of the other staff members or the Owner I know you will be sold not as a business transaction but as a member of the family at Tools for a Time. Thank you Mrs. Rebecca Lynn, and the entire Tools for a Time family for helping me grow my business and for always displaying the actions of Honesty, Integrity, and Excellence month after month and for building a great relationship with me spiritually and owner to owner !God Bless You All,John Ray PulleyPulley Lawn Care and Pressure Washing LLC

Review №76

Original post with update....I used them for some time and thought I had a good relationship with them. I wanted to buy a new mower and had saved up the cash. When I went to buy the mower they asked me if I wanted to apply for credit and make small payments on the mower. I needed to up grade some of my other equipment so I decided to try even though I knew my credit was not in the greatest shape. When the application was denied they lost all interest in my purchase and walked away to help the next person. They never asked or even considered that I had cash to buy my mower. I turned away and went to Agpro for my New mower. At that time I gave them one star. Please read forward.Update..I recently went back for a couple of reasons. First, their price on Weed-be-gone Pro is the cheapest Ive found in Jacksonville. Ive even looked online and they always have the lowest price. Second they are still the closest shop to my side of town, Westside. I currently own a Scag and this shop doesnt carry a lot of my parts. But I will give them this, I went in there today to hope to fix a front wheel caster problem. Now they couldnt fix my problem because of my mowers make and model but...the manager remembered my name from a couple of years ago. We spoke about the older review and asked why I hadnt gone to him. I told him that I was put off from the salesman attitude and I walked out. He apologized for the way I was treated and just by him remembering me he made me a customer again. Thank you, I wish I would I could have purchased my mower from him. Maybe the next one.

Review №78

I’ve done business with TFAT for the past 6 years, from purchasing quality brand equipment to just simple bags of mulch. I’ve always received 5-star customer service and exceptional “service after the sale” on all my power equipment. Roy (General Manager) and his team are experts in the business. I’ve been around business and industry long enough to know you don’t and can’t make everyone happy, no matter how hard you try or make things right for people. There are some who are just out to “get something for nothing” and that absolutely disgusts me to no end. No matter how long you are in business there is always someone out there lurking to be an opportunist and try and rip-off the honest, long-standing small businesses like this one. What a shame! But, thankfully there are those (the majority) who appreciate and support local establishments like this one who support their communities, First Responders, Military and most of all their employees and their families by being closed on Sundays so they can attend church or just spend quality time with them. Like many, I stand with Tools-For-A-Time...keep up the great work!

Review №83

I am certainly not a regular customer by any stretch, nor am I affiliated with them in any way, but, every time I call, or go in (usually very low $$; eg, sting replacement, replacement part, rental, etc...), I have ALWAYS been treated like a valued customer. Further, I am not even in the industry (read weekend warrior), and they always take the time to indulge my questions, and, provide solutions or parts, that are usually cheaper than any where else Ive looked. I live in PVB, so its a bit of a haul there, but IMO, its absolutely worth it, as theyve very reasonable, and have stood behind everything Ive bought. I have never been up-sold, or treated with disregard. Also, love that they are hard working Americans, that love God and country!
