Forestry and garden machinery repair and servicing
As a service, we offer repair and maintenance of forestry and garden machinery, as well as robotic mower installation. Our mechanics have long-standing repair experience with ongoing further training. At Saemeister, every area has its own dedicated specialists: two mechanics for two-stroke chainsaws and brushcutters; a mechanic for lawn tractors and front-cut ride-ons, a lawn mower mechanic, and two robotic mower specialists. We have a very large spare-parts stock, which sometimes even includes parts that have become hard to find. Before you give up on a machine – bring it to us – we may be able to repair your tool.
As something new, you can arrange your machine's repair on our website and also order transport to the repair and back. To do so, fill in the repair order on this page:https://saemeister.ee/remonditellimus/and await our feedback.

Please note:
- Heavily soiled a cleaning fee of €30-50 may be added for cleaning machines.
- Only work ordered by the customer and in writing noted on the work sheet is carried out.
- Repair work and used spare parts are covered by a 3-month repair warranty from the date the sales receipt is issued, on condition that the machine is used in full completeness and in accordance with the user manual. The repair warranty applies only to the work carried out during the repair and the assemblies involved. The repair warranty does not apply to certain devices that have no importer and for which no spare parts can be offered.
- The exact repair cost may vary depending on the specifics of the particular machine.
- We recommend getting your equipment into working order during the autumn-winter season – then we have more time and shorter queues. During the spring-summer period there may be long queues, and when workloads are very high we repair and service the equipment we have sold ourselves as a priority. If queues become unreasonably long, we accept only equipment we have sold ourselves!
