Hamelin’s Outdoor Power Equipment in North Bay provides customers with expert guidance on selecting, operating, and maintaining everything from lawnmowers and brush cutters to snowblowers. Located at 24 Lookout Heights Place—and serving nearby Sturgeon Falls, Callander, Powassan, Redbridge and Bonfield—this locally-owned dealership prides itself on a “shop local” philosophy that directly contributes to the region’s economic and social vitality. Manager Jeff Adams explains:
“We believe that when local businesses invest in their community, they help nurture a resilient economic and social fabric. By shopping local, we contribute to the overall health of the North Bay economy.”
The Hamelin’s showroom is stocked with new and used equipment from leading brands such as Cub Cadet®, ARGO®, Toro®, ECHO®, and Husqvarna®, offering a wide range of options for every budget and outdoor need.
The dealership also features unique solutions like the Ramp Rack system, which simplifies loading and unloading by extending truck bed space.
Factory-trained technicians provide routine maintenance and repairs in the service department, offering everything from operating demonstrations to advanced diagnostics.
“We don’t want to sell a piece of equipment that someone can’t operate safely,” says Adams, who emphasizes that personalized recommendations—based on a customer’s needs, physical abilities, and level of experience—are key to preventing accidents and ensuring long-term satisfaction.
Hamelin’s emphasis on safety extends to a conversational approach to troubleshooting parts and repairs. When customers aren’t quite sure what’s wrong with their equipment, the team often asks, “What is it doing or not doing?” This helps narrow down potential issues so customers can get the correct part or repair without guesswork. The well-stocked parts department is ready to supply everything from replacement components for ECHO® brush cutters to upgrades for Husqvarna® lawn mowers.
With the industry shifting toward battery-powered, eco-friendly models, Hamelin’s continues to expand its selection of greener, more efficient tools.
“Advances in battery technology are reshaping the industry,” Adams says. “We stay current so our customers can have reliable, sustainable options.”
This forward-looking mindset is balanced by a deep respect for the local community. Hamelin’s regularly donates to organizations such as the North Bay Legion, Hope Awaits Ministries Men’s Shelter, and multiple Lions Clubs.
“By giving back, we strengthen the bonds that make North Bay a better place for everyone,” Adams explains.
Despite seasonal sales fluctuations and the presence of large chains, Hamelin’s sets itself apart through personalized service, product knowledge, and commitment to community welfare. Looking ahead, Adams envisions expanding the dealership’s digital presence and continuing to grow the range of battery-powered tools.
“We’re dedicated to growing in ways that remain true to our values of quality and community care,” he says.
Hamelin’s Outdoor Power Equipment is open Monday to Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and Saturdays from 8:00 a.m. to noon, with Sundays and long weekends reserved for rest.
