Many sewing machines are inherited or purchased used. Sewing machine dealers may want to sell you a new machine rather than service an old machine. A used sewing machine will often work fine for most sewing tasks.

Contact me for machine service and I will help you out.

 

"Great Service!   If you need your sewing machine repaired or just cleaned and oiled, I highly recommend Elaine at Gravity Sewing.   She did a great job on my Bernina 830 machine.  It looks and runs like new.  She not only cleaned and oiled it but also found and fixed a problem that I did not realize I had. 

Thank you, Elaine"

Frequently asked questions

FAQ

How can I request sewing machine service work?

You contact me, schedule a time to drop off your sewing machine, and I take the machine and start working on it. I will contact you after determining what exactly it needs so I can give you an accurate cost estimate.

What if I want to meet somewhere else?

Let me know where you would like to meet, and I will see if I can meet you there.

What do I need to bring with my sewing machine?

In addition to the sewing machine, I will need the power cord, foot pedal, at least one bobbin, and preferably a zigzag foot (or regular foot if zigzag is not available).

How do I get my sewing machine back?

I will contact you to let you know when your machine is ready to be picked up and what the final cost will be. We can arrange a place to meet.

What payments do you accept?

I can accept cash, check, credit/debit cards, Google Pay, and Apple Pay.

What if my sewing machine needs repaired?

I can perform non-warranty work on most domestic sewing machines. I am not able to do software updates at this time. I will evaluate what is wrong and let you know if I can repair it and how much it will likely cost for parts and repair time. You can decide if it's worth the cost before I order parts and start the repair.

How do I decide if it's worth repairing a sewing machine?

Many sewing machines are inherited, and you may decide to repair or not based on a machine's sentimental value rather than market value. I am not an expert in market value, but I have a few machines that are in the "sentimental" category and several that are not. I don't judge if you decide to repair or not.
