Keep your sewing machine running smoothly with our professional maintenance and cleaning service! Each machine will be carefully cleaned, lubricated as needed and tested so you can get back to sewing with confidence.
This $50.00 deposit is a non-refundable deposit towards the total fee of your sewing machine cleaning and maintenance. Depending on your machine, our basic service costs from $129.00 to $199.00+ (see chart below). The technician will email you with an estimate if your machine requires more than this basic service.
- Mechanical Machine - Basic Service $129.00

- Vintage Sewing Machine (made prior to 2000)- the price can vary. Service requirements can differ significantly depending on the machine’s condition, frequency of use, and how long it has been stored without regular maintenance. Machines that have been unused for extended periods or exposed to dust, humidity, or improper storage may require more extensive servicing to restore optimal performance.
