Bernina Northern Suburbs has officially opened a fully equipped on-site workshop, which means expert sewing machine servicing and repairs are now available right here in your neighbourhood. No couriers, no long waits, and no guesswork.

Meet Our Workshop Technician: Tulough Loock

Our new workshop is headed up by Tulough Loock, a well-known and highly respected sewing machine technician with years of hands-on experience. Tulough has built a reputation for meticulous workmanship, honest assessments, and a genuine love for getting machines running like new again.

Together with Belinda and Elma, Tulough and the team are committed to giving your machine the same care and attention you’d expect from the Bernina name.

Why Regular Sewing Machine Servicing Matters

Like any precision machine, your sewing machine works hardest when it’s well maintained. Regular servicing:

– Extends the life of your machine — a well-maintained machine can last decades

– Prevents costly repairs — small issues like lint build-up or poor tension can turn into expensive problems if ignored

– Keeps your stitches perfect — skipped stitches, thread nests, and uneven tension are often signs your machine is overdue for a service

– Protects your investment — quality machines deserve quality care

We recommend a professional service at least once a year, or more often if you sew regularly.

Signs Your Sewing Machine Needs a Service or Repair

Not sure if it’s time? Bring your machine in if you notice any of the following:

  1. Skipped or uneven stitches

  2. Unusual noises, grinding, or squeaking

  3. Thread bunching or “birds’ nests” under the fabric

  4. Tension problems that won’t resolve

  5. The machine feels sluggish or the motor struggles

  6. It’s been more than a year since your last service

Local, Convenient, and Trusted

Because all work is now done on-site at our Northern Suburbs shop, you get faster turnaround times and direct communication with the technician working on your machine. You can drop your machine off, chat to us about any concerns, and collect it knowing exactly what was done.
