James and Alice Pringle have owned STIHL SHOP Greytown since October 2025 and pride themselves on continuing to provide the very best in customer service. The store is at the south end of the main highway in Greytown and has everything you would expect to find in a STIHL SHOP.
We are more than a destination for chainsaws; we are your go‐to spot for tackling outdoor work. The store offers a wide range of gear to suit every property and project, including lawn mowers, chippers, leaf blowers, line trimmers, generators and plenty more to keep your section in top shape.
All STIHL products sold are covered by the STIHL warranty, ranging from 6 months to 5 years. We also recommend that all petrol STIHL tools are brought in after 5 hours of use, or within 3 months of purchase, whichever occurs first, for a free check over. We then recommend that all tools are serviced annually.
For those with larger sections or lifestyle blocks, we stock a strong lineup of ride‑on mowers from Cub Cadet, Walker, Stiga and Masport. Each brand offers different strengths, from precision steering to rugged durability, and to make choosing easier, we can come to you for a free on‑property demonstration.
We also now stock a range of Masport & Warmington fireplaces, trusted New Zealand brands known for their durability, efficiency and timeless design. To make installation seamless, we have partnered with the team at A & K Plumbing and Electrical, ensuring you can choose a fireplace and have it professionally installed through one coordinated service.
The hire department is another major drawcard, with popular equipment available for both weekend DIYers and professionals. From splitters and chippers to excavators and compactors, there’s reliable machinery ready when you need it.
The team at STIHL SHOP Greytown is passionate about helping you create beautiful gardens and outdoor spaces and providing the best advice and support. Janine and Wayne work in the shop and bring a wealth of retail expertise and knowledge on the products stocked.
The service and repairs department has an excellent reputation. Our trained technician Blair can service and repair all brands of outdoor power equipment.
Whether you're buying a new chainsaw, hiring equipment for a weekend project, or bringing a machine in for repair, you're backed by a knowledgeable team that knows outdoor power equipment inside and out. From sales and servicing to expert advice, we're here to help you get the job done right.
