Our story

Over 20 years ago, I started my journey to become a marine and small engine technician. After graduating from trade school as one of the top students, and gaining knowledge working at two dealerships, my wife and I had our first child. Unbeknownst to us, our baby boy was born with a rare genetic disease called Dravet Syndrome. Our lives changed in the first six months of his life, and I had to make the decision to leave the workforce. Luckily, I work in a trade that allows me the ability to work from home. Frontenac Marine & Small Engines was born, and I haven’t looked back. I strive to provide a wonderful experience for my customers, while each and every person receives the same care and dedication.

Testimonials

We have had the privilege of working with many happy customers over the years. Here’s what a few of them had to say about our services.
Kyle B.

“I have found my go-to guy! Jarod at Frontenac Marine & Small Engines is more than simply competent in his trade but also fair, honest, and accommodating. I have been frustrated with other marine mechanics that can’t possibly help diagnose or repair issues with my boat for weeks – taking me off the lake and waiting to know when I might be scheduled for a diagnostic – or what services will cost. I have used Jarod for more than four years and he has consistently delivered on his promises, followed-up to make sure issues were adequately resolved, and has provided great value. He has helped with technology installation, motor and electrical repairs, winterizing, and shrink wrapping our boat. He is worthy of your full consideration when you need help with your boat, riding mower, or other small engine repairs.”

 

Pat M.

“We have been a customer of Frontenac Marine and Small Engines for the last 6 years. Jarod has done an excellent job maintaining our Stingray boat, providing annual maintenance and winterizing. Jarod has also addressed some repairs on our snowblower, which we really appreciated with the snow we had last season. Highly recommend!!”

John F.

“I have known and done business with Jarod for several years since he has been located on Ormsbee Rd.  He is always fair, honest, good natured, timely and reasonably priced.  He has worked on our outboards, atv’s, boats and lawn equipment. I have referred several family and friends to him and their experiences come back the same. Nice Business – great person.”

Dale

“We have dealt with Jarod for several years. In that time we have found him to be quite knowledgeable with large or small motors. He communicates well is reliable and trustworthy. We have recommended him to many neighbours and friends who have also appreciated his services. Glad to have him in our community.”

Nick G.

“Jarod is professional, reliable, knowledgeable and accommodating. He has reliably maintained my snowblower and pontoon boat making sure both are running smoothly. Putting my boat in and out requires a difficult maneuver and Jarod plans ahead and pulls it off with ease.”

Tanya S.

“I can’t say enough good things about Jarod. He does a great job, is efficient, honest, and truly trustworthy. You can tell he genuinely cares about helping his customers and offers very competitive pricing. Jarod is kind, knowledgeable, and runs the kind of family orientated local business you feel good supporting. I highly recommend Frontenac Marine for all your small engine repairs!”
