🥉 WE MADE THE PODIUM! 🥉

The results are in for CommunityVotes Renfrew County 2026, and D&S Small Engines has been awarded Bronze!

We have to admit, seeing our little small-engine and powersports shop sitting on a podium alongside established automotive shops gave us a pretty good smile. 😄 We may spend our days working on lawn mowers, tractors, ATVs, UTVs and everything else that probably shouldn't qualify as a car, but apparently you folks decided we belonged there anyway. 😁

More than anything, though, this belongs to our customers and our community.

Every single vote came from someone who took a few minutes out of their day to support D&S. Whether you've trusted us with your equipment, recommended us to a neighbour, shared one of our posts, stopped to say hello at a community event, or simply clicked that vote button, thank you!

We're a small, independent, family-run shop. We don't have a big corporate name behind us or a huge advertising budget. What we do have is an absolutely incredible group of customers who continue to support us, keep our shop ridiculously busy, and apparently even sneak us onto automotive podiums. 😉

Thank you, Renfrew County. Seriously. ❤️

We'll proudly take the Bronze, get back to fixing things with engines, and keep working hard to earn your support every day.

🥉 CommunityVotes Renfrew County 2026 — Bronze

Small Engines. Big Attitude. Even Bigger Gratitude. ❤️

⚡⚡ IMPORTANT CLOSURE NOTICE — AUGUST 20TH ⚡⚡

D&S Small Engines & Powersports will be CLOSED Thursday, August 20th, and the entire yard/property will be STRICTLY OFF LIMITS to customers and visitors for the day.

We’re having our main electrical service upgraded along with the installation of a new whole-property standby generator. Daugherty Electric, their subcontractors and Hydro One will all be on site completing the work.

For everyone’s safety and so the crews can work without dodging customers, trucks, trailers, machines, or somebody who “just needs to drop something off real quick” 😂 — there will be absolutely NO customer access, pickups, drop-offs or visits to the property that day.

Please respect the closure and give everyone on site the room they need to get the job done safely.

Besides… once they’re finished, we should finally have more than enough magical pixies and sparks ⚡🧚 to finish that secret project we’ve been working on… 🧌

And we won’t have to keep waiting for lightning to be convenient. ⚡😂

That’s all you’re getting out of us for now.

D&S Small Engines & Powersports Ltd. Small Engines — Big Attitude.

Well, we didn’t bring home the hardware this time… but somehow D&S Small Engines ended up as a TOP PICK for CommunityVotes Ottawa’s Repair & Maintenance! 🔧😂
For a little shop out in Arnprior to be sitting on that list alongside established repair shops from across the Ottawa area is pretty damn cool.
No Platinum. No Gold. No Silver. No Bronze.
But TOP PICK? We’ll take it. 😎
A huge thank you to everybody who voted for us, recommends us, shares our posts, brings us their broken stuff, and continues to keep this little shop absolutely buried in work. 😂
And while we’ve got you… 👀
We’re also nominated in CommunityVotes Renfrew County under Automotive → Repair & Maintenance!
If you’ve dealt with us and feel we’ve earned it, we’d sure appreciate you tossing a vote our way! 🗳️🔧
Win, lose or Top Pick... the fact that you guys keep putting our little shop on these lists means a hell of a lot to us.

🚨 PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT FROM THE CHAOS COORDINATORS AT D&S... 🚨

First things first...

YOU GUYS ARE ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE. ❤️

This has officially become the busiest season we've ever had, and we're beyond grateful that so many of you continue to trust us with your equipment.

Now for the update...

📅 We're currently booking new repair appointments into OCTOBER.

No, that's not a typo. 😂

A quick note for our commercial customers: If you're one of our maintenance contract or priority service clients (landscapers, tree services, concrete finishers, property maintenance companies, etc.), nothing changes for you. We'll continue to honour our existing service agreements and keep your equipment working so your crews can keep working.

If you've called, emailed, or sent us a Facebook message and haven't heard back yet, we're sincerely sorry. Our phones have been ringing non-stop, our inboxes have exploded, and our Facebook messages have multiplied faster than rabbits.

The girls in the office are working like a couple of caffeinated squirrels trying to organize absolute chaos. They're returning calls, answering messages, chasing parts, booking appointments, doing invoices, and somehow still finding time to keep the rest of us pointed in the right direction. If you're waiting on a callback or an invoice, we promise we haven't forgotten you. We're getting caught up as fast as we can.

As for the shop...

The mechanics are buried in mowers, ATVs, UTVs, chainsaws, tractors, generators, and just about everything else with an engine. If somebody wheels in a lawn chair with a Briggs on it, we're probably fixing that too. 😂

We're committed to giving every machine the time and attention it deserves. We'd rather be upfront about our schedule and do the job right than rush repairs just to get more machines through the door. That's the D&S way, and it's not changing.

❄️ And before anyone says, "It's only August..." remember that snow doesn't care what month it is. Snowblower season is creeping up, and every year we get the same phone call after the first snowfall:

«"Any chance you can have it ready by tomorrow?"»
..We'll still laugh about it together. 😜

📍 We're by appointment only, so if you know your machine is going to need attention this fall, don't wait until everyone else has the same idea.

To every customer who's supported us, shared our posts, recommended us to friends, stopped by to say hello, or trusted us with their machines...

Thank you.

You built this little shop into what it is today, and we appreciate every single one of you.

Now, if you'll excuse us... we've got a date with about 47 engines, 12 coffee refills, and whatever fresh surprise rolled in on a trailer this morning.

– The D&S Crew 🔧❤️

🔧 A Quick D&S Shop Update 🔧

First off... THANK YOU! ❤️

It's been an absolutely incredible year, and we honestly can't thank our customers enough. The support from this community has been nothing short of amazing. Every phone call, message, referral, and machine dropped off means the world to us.

The truth is, we wish we could take on every single repair that comes our way, but there simply aren't enough hours in the day. We'd rather be upfront about our availability than overbook and have your equipment sitting in the yard waiting longer than it should.

🗓️We're currently booking larger repairs into September.

We still have limited appointment spots available for routine maintenance and smaller services, but those openings are filling quickly.

❄️ Believe it or not, snowblower season isn't far away. We already have 57 snowblower services booked, and it's not even August yet! If you want your machine ready before the first snowfall, we'd highly recommend getting on the schedule sooner rather than later.

📍 For the foreseeable future, D&S will continue operating by appointment only. This allows us to stay focused, keep repairs moving, reduce wait times, and give every customer and every machine the attention they deserve.

Whether you've been with us since day one or just found us recently, thank you for choosing D&S. We never take your support for granted, and we'll continue working hard every day to earn your trust.

📞 Please call, text, or send us a message to book your appointment before stopping by.

Thank you again for keeping us so busy. We truly have the best customers around.

— The D&S Small Engines & Powersports Team ❤️

😂 Customer: "You guys need a louder doorbell..."
Us: "Say no more."
Challenge accepted. 🤣
After missing a customer because we couldn't hear the doorbell over the sound of engines, impacts, air tools, and general shop chaos... we've upgraded.
We can't promise it's OSHA approved... but we can promise we'll hear you now. 💥😂
In all seriousness, if you stop by and we're buried in the back of the shop, don't hesitate to ring the bell—we're always hard at work keeping your equipment running.
Thanks for keeping us on our toes, and thanks for the suggestion! We love customers with a sense of humor. 😁
Reminder: we will be open BY APPOINTMENT ONLY for the foreseeable future!
D&S Small Engines & Powersports Ltd. Small Engines — Big Attitude. 💪🛠️
