Our Service Centre specialises in the following brands:- Juki, Brother, Janome, Toyota, Elna, Singer, Bernina, Husqvarna, Jones, Frister & Rossmann, Bernette, Babylock, New Home and Silver sewing machines but subject to parts availability we can work on any domestic or the occasional commercial sewing machine. 

Our customers extend from The Royal Navy , initially from the days when HMY Britannia was in service, maintaining their sewing machine and more recently to supplying HMS Kent, HMS Daring and HMS Ark Royal, now sadly de-commissioned. We regularly support Schools and charities with our services and obviously the general public not only from Fareham but from the areas surrounding Southampton, Portsmouth, Gosport, Eastleigh, Bournemouth, Ringwood, Romsey, Salisbury, Winchester, Chichester, Alton, Petersfield, Guildford, Basingstoke, Worthing, The Isle of Wight and beyond to the London regions, Reading etc. We are also happy to supply customers in Europe, including France, Germany, Spain and the Baltics. 
We do all repairs on our own premises, are completely independent and not associated with any other business locally and recommended by manufacturers for aftersales support. We give you a full years guarantee on all work carried out.

Please phone us on 01329 280499, let us know the machine you’re interested in and we’ll phone you back and guarantee to better the deal.

We are Major stockists of the following brands:- Juki, Brother, Janome and Elna, but can also supply many others on request at discounted prices.

2013 marked our 30th year trading in Fareham as an independent sewing machine specialist, passionate in supplying the right machine for you. Not just at the right price but the right machine for what you want to use it for. We have in total over 40 years experience of the sewing machine trade, starting with The Singer Company in Sales and Repairs and are proud to look after our customers new and old by being approachable and by offering a friendly service with free tuition for life on all new sewing machines plus we offer a 5 year guarantee on all new sewing machines. Certain conditions apply. Please ask at the time of purchase.

We stock a wide range of Haberdashery and crafts, some of these items will be added to the website in the coming months along with a range of fabrics and gifts.

When you order any machine online, we are happy to deliver to your home by courier free of charge but alternatively we give you the option to collect from the shop, where we can give you some basic instruction before you take the machine home. This we believe will set you off on the right foot for you to get the best out of your machine.

In December 2017 we moved to a new shop on the corner of West Street and West Street to give our customers a better experience when visiting the shop. Now with a brighter and more spacious outlook, a large workshop and bigger more spacious storage and with our own customer parking right outside for up to 8 vehicles at any one time.

Please read this note that we are contractually obliged to inform you of:

“We do not supply Janome branded sewing machines or over lockers to customers residing outside the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland. The warranty on Janome products sold by ourselves is limited to these territories“
