The grill does not have to be fancy. It just has to be ready when everybody gets hungry.

Check the fuel, clean the grate, and make sure the tools have not disappeared since the last cookout.

George’s is ready when your backyard is.

September is Preparedness Month. The best time to check the flashlights is before the lights go out. Make sure the batteries are good, the phone chargers work, the first-aid kit is stocked and the extension cords are where you think they are. A little preparation now means one less thing to figure out in the dark.

Stop by George’s for all your preparedness needs.

Some yards need a watering can. Others need horsepower. Whether you are maintaining a small lawn or keeping several acres under control, the right equipment can give you more of your weekend back.

Labor Day weekend is better when the grill is hot and the drinks stay cold. Don't wait till next week to start planning.

George’s has grills, cookout essentials, and the largest selection of YETI in town—from coolers to drinkware and plenty in between.

Stop in and get everything ready in one trip.

If the mower worked last season but suddenly refuses to start, the fuel is one of the first places to look.

Gas that sits can absorb moisture and leave residue behind in the fuel system. Before replacing parts at random, check the simple things—or bring the mower to George’s and let us take a look.

The best tool is not automatically the biggest one on the wall.

Your acreage, terrain, workload and how often you use it all matter. Tell us what you are maintaining, and we’ll help you compare options that actually make sense for your property.

There’s still plenty of summer left in the mountains.

From late-season gardening and backyard meals to lake days, camping trips, and evenings outside, a little preparation makes it easier to enjoy the good part.

We pulled together a practical guide to the gear and supplies that help make mountain summers simpler—and most of it is waiting right here at George’s.

Replacing a screw, bolt, fitting, or mystery piece?

Bring the old one with you. The length, thread, shape, and material usually tell us more than, “It was about this big.”

George’s has long been known for having the largest fastener selection in the area, so there’s a good chance the exact piece you need is already waiting in one of these bins.

Come in and we’ll help you match it.

Take ten minutes and walk around the property before the next project list gets longer.

Look for clogged gutters, peeling paint, loose railings, cracked caulk, drainage problems, and branches rubbing against the house. The small things are usually easier to handle before another stretch of mountain rain.

We put together a practical summer maintenance checklist for local homeowners on George’s blog:

A few months ago, this was just a vision — now the new George’s Lawn Mower & Power Tool Repair Shop is starting to take shape. 🔧

We’re excited to continue expanding our service department here in Hayesville so we can better serve homeowners, landscapers, and our mountain communities for years to come.

From routine mower maintenance to chainsaw and small engine repairs, this new space will help us continue providing the local service and support our customers count on.

More updates coming soon as progress continues!
