Sewing machine repair and servicing in Cheshire or Staffordshire

[Fabric Lover]

Hi, does anyone have any recommendations for sewing machine service and repairs in the Crewe/Stafford/Shrewsbury area?  Your advice would be much appreciated since I’m having difficulty finding one having recently moved here.

The only one I can think of is Phil Morton in Macclesfield. I haven't used him myself but phoned last summer regarding a problem that I had with my overlocker (Brother circa 1989). He said he would be able to service it and fit new cutting blades which I had sourced. As it happens I changed them myself (I'd done it previously about 6 years ago) and did a thorough clean at the same time, so didn't take the machine in.

What machine do you have? Janome's UK head office is in Stockport and they do servicing. I've had repairs done by them in the past. Brother also have a place in Oldham I think.

I always take mine to Jaycotts in Chester, not my nearest but very reasonable prices and I get a day out in Chester when dropping off the machine, and a day in Cheshire Oaks or the Zoo when we collect it.

Ooh - I didn't know Jaycotts did servicing.  I go there several times a year, so it might be possible to work something out when one of my machines next needs servicing.   :thinking:  Thank you @Kad !

The last I heard Jaycotts were only servicing machines that had bee bought from them. That was a few years ago, have they changed their minds? I must say that it seemed a bit short sighted as surely it would entice people in to service more machines.
My 'go to' now would be SMD at Llay.

If you Google Abis Den you will see that Abi does sewing machine servicing. I think she is in the south part of Stockport. She has a very helpful sewing blog and is on Instagram. I think I will try her next time my machines need a service..... which reminds me....
