How it works

  1. 1. Search

    Type your city or ZIP code, or use your location. Pick a repair type if you need something specific, like a serger or an industrial machine.

  2. 2. Check the listing

    See which brands the shop works on, how it takes machines in, and when it is open. Some shops repair only what they sell.

  3. 3. Call the shop

    Describe the problem and ask about price and timing before you bring the machine in. You deal with the shop directly.

What does a sewing machine repair cost?

Prices vary by shop and by machine. Many shops charge a set price for a standard service (cleaning, oiling, timing and tension) and quote parts on top. Computerized and embroidery machines usually cost more to work on than mechanical ones. Ask for an estimate before you leave your machine: some shops give them free, others charge a fee that goes toward the repair.

Common questions

How often should a sewing machine be serviced?

It depends on how much you sew. A machine that skips stitches, jams, makes a new noise or runs rough is due for a look. Many people book a routine service every year or so; ask your shop what it suggests for your model.

Is it worth repairing an old sewing machine?

Often, yes. All-metal mechanical machines were built to be serviced, and parts are usually still around. For an inexpensive newer machine, a big repair can cost close to a replacement, so ask for an estimate first.

Do repair shops work on every brand?

Not always. Some shops service only the brands they sell, and some don’t take computerized or industrial machines. Each listing shows the brands a shop works on, but it’s worth confirming when you call.

What should I bring to the shop?

Bring the machine with its foot pedal, power cord and bobbin case. If the problem shows up in the stitching, a scrap of fabric sewn on the machine helps the technician see it.

Can I get a machine repaired by mail?

Some technicians accept machines by mail. Call first, ask how they want it packed, and remove the needle, presser foot and bobbin before you ship it.

Does Broken Bobbins repair machines?

No. Broken Bobbins is a directory of repair shops. Contact the shop on the listing directly about repairs, prices and hours.

Why we built Broken Bobbins

Finding someone to fix a sewing machine is harder than it should be. Many good repair shops are small, don’t have a website, or work out of a vacuum or fabric store, so they’re easy to miss. We built Broken Bobbins to put them in one place, with the details that matter before you call: the brands a shop works on, the services it offers and when it’s open. Listings come from public business information and the shops’ own websites, and we review each one before it’s published.
