Sewing Machine Repairs and Servicing

We have over 20 years experience of looking after our customer's sewing machine repairs and servicing. A service includes maintenance, internal cleaning, oiling and minor adjustments to optimise sewing performance and preserve the life of the machine. This applies to machines that are in working order.

Servicing and repairs are handled on a queue basis with a current turnaround time of around of approx. 3 weeks. Your machine joins the queue once it's dropped off at our Redruth shop. Sorry, but we do not currently accept machines sent to us via courier for a service.
