Lawn Mowers, Outdoor Power Equipment & Small Engine specialists in Cairns
About Us
Freshwater Small Engines began with a simple idea: repair quality equipment instead of replacing it. What started in 2018 fixing discarded lawn mowers has grown into one of Cairns' trusted small engine sales, service and repair specialists.
Our journey started at the Freshwater Buy Back Shop, where we quickly discovered that many "broken" lawn mowers simply suffered from stale fuel or poor fuel management rather than major mechanical faults. Those early lessons shaped the way we still operate today—providing honest advice, accurate diagnosis and practical repairs that save our customers time and money.
As proud Cairns locals, we're a family-owned and operated business built on experience, integrity and genuine customer service. Our workshop is led by Steven, a fully qualified mechanic with more than 30 years of experience across motorcycles, motor vehicles and small engines. His extensive technical knowledge, combined with a practical approach to problem-solving, ensures every job is completed to the highest standard.
Supporting the business is Sharni, a qualified Earth Scientist with extensive experience in community development and resilience. Together, we combine technical expertise with strong community values, creating a business that genuinely cares about its customers and the people behind every machine.
At Freshwater Small Engines, we sell, service and repair outdoor power equipment for both residential and commercial customers throughout Cairns and Far North Queensland. We stock quality petrol and battery-powered lawn mowers, commercial outdoor power equipment, generators, robotic lawn mowers, hedge trimmers, blowers, log splitters and genuine small engine spare parts.
We're also proud to offer motorcycle servicing, mechanical repairs and roadworthy inspections, providing Cairns riders with a trusted local workshop for professional motorcycle maintenance and repairs.
Whether you're a homeowner maintaining your backyard, a professional landscaper relying on commercial equipment, or a camper preparing for your next adventure, we're committed to providing quality products, expert advice, genuine spare parts and reliable after-sales support.
At Freshwater Small Engines, we're more than just a dealership—we're your local partner for small engine repairs, outdoor power equipment, motorcycle servicing and honest mechanical advice. Our goal is simple: keep your equipment running reliably, minimise downtime and provide the friendly, dependable service that Cairns customers have come to trust.
