Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I service my sewing machine?
A sewing machine should be serviced at least once a year for regular users. High-use machines in schools, alteration shops or studios may need servicing every six months. Occasional users should still book a check-up every 12–18 months to prevent hidden issues.
What’s included in a sewing machine service?
A standard service usually includes a full internal clean, tension adjustments, lubrication, checks on electrical components (if applicable), and calibration of timing and feed mechanisms. The goal is to restore smooth performance and prevent future breakdowns.
Can I service my sewing machine myself?
Basic maintenance like cleaning lint and oiling accessible parts can help between services, but a full service should be done by a professional. Internal components require the right tools and experience to adjust safely and correctly.

Keep Your Machine Running Right
A lot of machine problems start small — and regular servicing is the easiest way to catch them before they turn into something bigger. Whether you’re sewing daily or just now and then, a service helps your machine run better, last longer and avoid frustrating breakdowns. Here’s what regular servicing actually does for you:
- Cleaner, Consistent Stitching: Stops tension issues and helps maintain smooth, even stitches.
- Longer Lifespan: Reduces wear on moving parts and catches damage early. Keep Grandma's old treadle going for another 100 years.
- Fewer Breakdowns: Helps prevent mid-project failures and urgent repairs.
- Smoother Operation: Improves how your machine feels and responds.
- Peace of Mind: Keeps professionals, students and hobbyists working without interruption.
Regular sewing machine service is a smart way to protect your machine and your time, especially if you rely on it for work or learning. We make the process simple, flexible and mobile. Book your next service and keep things running smoothly.
