Coastal Sewing Machines provides tune-up services for all models of sewing machines. Usually a tune-up wont involve any repairs, but will simply help your machine run at its best. Sewing machines, and especially sergers, become full of lint, thread, dust, fuzz, and all kinds of other matter over the course of use. This slows down your machine, makes it noisy, and also can harm vital components. Here is a general list of the items we complete with EVERY tune-up:
