Southport Lawn Equipment

Powering Indianapolis Landscapes Since 1980

In the south side of Indianapolis, the success of your yard depends entirely on the reliability of your tools. Since 1980, Southport Lawn Equipment—formerly known to many as Dannemiller’s—has been the trusted neighborhood authority for homeowners and professional crews alike. Under the leadership of Jeff Pavey, our family-owned shop has spent over four decades ensuring that when the weekend hits or the workweek begins, your gear is ready to perform.

We’ve built our legacy on the belief that expertise shouldn't be complicated. Whether you are maintaining a quiet residential lot or managing a commercial landscaping fleet, we provide the technical support and high-performance equipment that makes outdoor living more enjoyable. We don't just sell machines; we provide the peace of mind that comes with forty-five years of local experience.

Mastery Over Every Engine

From the hum of a trimmer to the roar of a commercial zero-turn, every engine has its own needs. Our technicians bring "informed confidence" to the service bay, specializing in the complex repairs that keep gas-powered equipment efficient and resilient. We focus on getting the job done right the first time, so you aren't stuck troubleshooting when you should be working.

Our Specialized Maintenance and Repair Services:

• Precision carburetor rebuilding and cleaning to restore power to sluggish engines.
• Full engine diagnostics and repair for mowers, generators, and pressure washers.
• Professional blade sharpening to ensure a healthy, clean cut for your turf.
• Certified service for industry-leading powerplants including Kohler, Kawasaki, Honda, and Briggs & Stratton.
• Routine maintenance for handheld tools from Stihl, Echo, and Shindaiwa.

The Southport Edge

What truly sets us apart is our "if we don’t stock it, we’ll get it" mentality. We carry a massive inventory of parts for nearly every major brand, from Ferris Commercial Mowers and Simplicity tractors to Toro and Snapper. This deep parts catalog allows us to offer a quicker turnaround than typical big-box service centers, minimizing your downtime.

Because we specialize in both sales and service, we offer a level of product insight that helps you find the perfect match for your terrain and budget. We aren't here for a quick transaction; we are here to ensure you have the right components—like Trimmer Trap accessories or Masport mowers—to optimize your workflow.
