What We Do

Comprehensive Small Engine
Care & Repair

From routine maintenance to complete overhauls, we bring the same meticulous attention to detail whether it's your lawn mower or your generator.

Engine Repair & Overhaul

Complete diagnostic and repair services for 2-cycle and 4-cycle engines. We handle carburetion, ignition, compression, and internal component replacement with precision parts.

Preventive Maintenance

Scheduled tune-ups that extend engine life and prevent costly breakdowns. Oil changes, filter replacements, spark plug service, and seasonal preparation for your equipment.

Lawn & Garden Equipment

Walk-behind mowers, riding mowers, trimmers, blowers, and edgers. We service all major brands including Briggs & Stratton, Honda, Kohler, and Tecumseh engines.

Generator Service

Portable and standby generator repair and maintenance. We ensure your power backup starts reliably when you need it most — from spark plugs to voltage regulators.

Chainsaw & Outdoor Power

Chainsaw sharpening, bar and chain service, carburetor adjustment, and complete engine rebuilds. We also service snow blowers, tillers, and other seasonal outdoor equipment.

Parts & Restoration

Hard-to-find parts sourcing and vintage engine restoration. Whether it's a replacement carburetor or a complete frame-up restoration, we track down what you need.

About Us

A Tradition of
Honest Craftsmanship

Brown's Small Engine's was founded on a simple principle: every engine deserves the same careful attention, whether it powers a residential lawn mower or a commercial landscaping rig. Located on Highway 1 in Cheraw, South Carolina, we have served the community for over three decades.

Our approach is straightforward — we diagnose thoroughly, explain clearly, and fix right the first time. No shortcuts, no unnecessary replacements. You'll always know exactly what your equipment needs and why, so there are never any surprises at pickup.

We take pride in working with both individual homeowners and local businesses. From a single push mower to a fleet of commercial units, every job receives the same standard of care and integrity we would expect for our own equipment.
