Min cost to diagnose the problem is $ 75 + parts ..Generally you will end up in paying rougly $ 100 to get a lawn mower repaired . If you lookout for sale , you may be able to find a good slef propelled mower for around 250 or less .
Secondly there are not too many parts that can go wrong in mower . If you know basics change filter and sparg plug . Replace engine oil and do not use stale gas . It might help you .
Bottomline is that getting a lawn mower repaired is not worth .

Do yourself and everyone a favor and get a reel mower.
Unless you have several acres of land, gas or electric mowers are a PITA.
I've had a reel mower for years and never regretted it.
Sharpen the blades every couple of years and you are set for many years.
Cuts the grass beautifully, it's quiet, non-polluting, and free exercise to boot.

Desi # 1,

not worth it to repair, as mentioned by fellow CD's repairing cost would be more than new lawn mower.

I show ad on Canadian Tire for around $125 on last week. check with CT.

We are doing repairing for power equipments, like lawn mower, snow thrower, bikes,etc...

if you needs any help PM me please.

2 cents from myside.......

Regards

Use the broken lawn mover as a project to see if u can fix it on ur own..

Most lawn movers have very little in them that can go wrong,

Ur carburetor is probably clogged/broken
