Sewing machine servicing

If you enquire in a local fabric shop they may be able to put you in touch with someone who will service your machine.

Cresswells in Daybrook near Arnold Nottingham is where I take mine .. It's not cheap but very good.

Google 'Janome Servicing and the name of a local town' and you will get a list of results answering your question.

Oh goodness. I’ve had my Janome for nearly 20 years and never had it serviced. I clear out the fluff regularly. What does a service actually entail ?

Are you near Leicester? A few years ago I got mine serviced, ( after son had wrecked the tension trying to sew a fancy dress costume!) very reasonably at a suppliers/ repairers in the garment manufacturing area of Leicester.
I can’t remember their name, but if you google sewing machine repairers in Leicester, quite a few come up. The workshop was fantastic and sold spares etc.

Many thanks GN members for your posts, I have now located a long established sewing centre ( didn't realise it was there !) which comes with 5 star reviews and will I be paying them a visit in the New Year. Thanks again and Happy Christmas!
