At Dragonfly Quilting, we offer professional sewing machine servicing and repairs for all brands - including Janome, Pfaff, Husqvarna, Singer, Brother, Bernina, Elna, and many more.
Our dedicated workshop is fully equipped to handle both modern computerised machines and cherished vintage classics.
We also offer vintage sewing machine repairs and restoration, giving new life to old favourites.
For computerised or electric models, our technicians also test foot pedals, motors, and circuit boards to ensure your machine is safe, reliable, and ready to sew.
What’s included in every service
-
Checking and Adjusting Tensions, Timings, and Tolerances
We ensure the core mechanics of your machine are perfectly balanced, aligning tension, timing, and internal tolerances so every stitch forms cleanly and consistently.
-
Full Cleaning and Lubrication of Moving Parts
All internal and external moving components are cleaned to remove lint, dust, and fibre build-up, then lubricated to reduce friction and keep your machine running smoothly.
-
Stitch Consistency and Feed Alignment Checks
We run a detailed inspection of stitch formation and fabric feed to confirm your machine is advancing material evenly and producing reliable, professional-quality stitches.
-
Visual Inspection of Mechanical and Electrical Components
Our technicians visually examine belts, gears, motors, pedals, wiring, and housings to identify early signs of wear, damage, or electrical issues before they become costly faults.
-
Calibration and Testing for Smooth, Even Stitching
Your machine is fully calibrated and tested across multiple stitch types to verify accuracy, smooth operation, and consistent results across all fabric weights.
-
Replacement of Worn Parts Where Required
Any components showing wear or degradation are identified and replaced with suitable parts to restore performance, prevent breakdowns, and extend the lifespan of your machine. (Addional charges may apply)
Why regular servicing matters
Servicing your sewing machine annually is essential to maintain performance, stitch quality, and longevity.
Over time, dust and thread fibres can build up, causing friction and wear. Regular servicing keeps everything clean, aligned, and lubricated - preventing costly breakdowns and ensuring your stitches stay perfect.
Just like a car, a well-maintained sewing machine lasts longer, runs quieter, and keeps its value.
