Whether you have a vintage hand crank Singer machine, or a more modern multi-stitch electric machine, our comprehensive service will restore your appliance to its former glory. It will receive a full clean and degrease, a 30 point check, and you will be advised on any items that need attention. We offer free quotes on repairs.
