Ask two questions before you carry the machine in. First, whether they service your brand — many shops are dealer-certified for some makes and refuse others, especially older industrial or European heads. Second, what the bench fee covers: most shops charge a flat tune-up (clean, oil, timing, tension) and quote parts separately, so a cheap tune-up and an expensive one often aren't the same job.

Good to know

How much does a sewing machine tune-up cost?
Most independent shops charge a flat bench fee for a standard service — cleaning, oiling, re-timing and tension adjustment — with parts quoted on top. Computerised and embroidery machines usually cost more than a mechanical straight-stitch, and a machine that hasn't been serviced in years may need parts that are no longer made.

Is it worth repairing an old sewing machine?
Usually yes for an all-metal mechanical machine — they were built to be serviced, and parts are often still available or interchangeable. For an inexpensive modern plastic-body machine, a major repair can approach the cost of replacement, which is worth asking the shop directly before you leave it on the bench.
