I'm a complete newbie to sewing and felt a little lost on whether I should buy an older used machine or get something new. I spoke with Bertha who took the time to chat with me and she answered all my questions and Rick was able to help me decide if I should get this specific machine I was looking at. Once I get my paws on a machine it will be going to them first thing for a tune-up! They were so incredibly helpful and kind!! I just found my go-to repair shop. Thank you!!! read more

See all

COME HERE IF YOU HAVE CONCERNS WITH YOUR MACHINE! I am a first time owner of a brother xr1355 sewing machine and it locked completely I wasn't sure how to fix it so I took it to a vacuum and sewing store to fix my machine they quoted me ALOT. I was sad thinking this is it for my machine then I looked on yelp and found Rick's sewing machine repair. It is so affordable and the owners are so nice I will definitely be coming back for any of my machine needs and questions. Thank you so much read more

Rick & Bertha are a great duo who are very responsive & got me on the books for the same week! Such a lifesaver for an active Designer/Seamstress. Rick does house calls which was crucial to me as I have a single needle industrial sewing machine and it's very hard to move (and you have to drain the oil, etc). Will definitely be back for my other 4 machines! read more

Best service around!! I will definitely continue to recommend Rick's repair services. Great family business!!

WOW!! I'm so glad to have found Rick & Bertha! After my last unpleasant experience with a " different repair" place, this was so nice! Not only were they friendly, communicative & punctual, Rick showed me before & after pictures of all work done. My machine looks & performs like brand new, which is saying something because it is a 1960's Singer. I definitely got way more than I expected. The price charged, time promised, and overall quality was exceptional! I will ONLY take my machine to Rick from now on. Thank you! read more

Bertha and Rick treat you like family .. my pfaff sewing machine has the same age as me . They repaired it and it's ready for the next generation ( my daughter) . I highly recommend them , we need to maintain our machines . They don't make them like they use to. read more

Super fast, my machine runs like new. It is difficult to find the shop, but Bertha will help you. Just call before you get there.

So glad I found this repair service! My 70's machine appeared to be dying, but Rick brought it back to life. Bertha is excellent with communicating and always returns calls. They guarantee their work, and the prices are honest. I would definitely recommend. read more

Sewing machine repair is getting harder and harder to find....well let me correct that: GOOD sewing machine repair. Case in point- my go to shop is shuttering after 46yrs ( my go to for 42 of them). Enter Rick's Sewing Machine Repair. I had a very niche Kenmore 1040 aka Ketherweight that was stuck solid after sitting for decades unused. In less than 2 wks Rick and Bertha got it in tip-top order and I'm sewing in retro-style. Yes, they work from their home but that means they have no skin in the game of trying to sell you a new machine to meet their bottom line with their distributors- they just fix machines. I will recommend them to my sewing group/guild members with confidence. 100% worth the drive from San Pedro. read more

Fixed my White overlock machine and I'm pleased with the results. Getting the machine in for service was fast and simple. The cost for repair was reasonable as well. I would recommend Rick's Sewing Machine Repair. read more

Super repair resource for your sewing machine! Fast, best customer service and communication. Rick and Bertha are the best!! read more

Reach Salt of the Earth wife husband sewing machine repair. Honest work. Honest wage. Guaranteed work. I had three numbers and places. The first place I called was Moore's. If you too have called them you know what happened. I thought I had gone to Mars when I call Moore's.... rude, outlandish demands and curt reply was that if I didn't like their prices I should buy a new machine. I called Rick's after and talked to his wife who is very kind and very professional. Glad I persisted and got my machine fixed for a reasonable correct cost. They are good people. They are running their business with the good ole fashion standards that are soon to be extinct. So glad I found them. Gave me a little hope in humanity while also getting my machine fixed. read more

Would HIGHLY recommend using Rick's Sewing Machine Repair if your machine needs loving attention. Bertha and Rick couldn't be more professional or kind. Excellent workmanship, fair pricing and fast service. read more

At first I was a little hesitant to take my wife's sewing machine in for repairs that was not a brick and mortar store. I asked the folks on a neighborhood watch website and there were several that responded telling me that Rick's was a good place to go. After taking my wife's machine to Rick's, I was glad I did. I didn't get to meet Rick but his wife assisted me and it took just about a week for the repairs. It pays to listen to online referrals sometimes. For repairs like these, this business met my needs and I will keep their number on my cell phone. Bertha was great to work with. The quality of service and value were superb. read more

I went on Yelp reviews to select Rick's Sewing Machine Repair to fix my Bernina 740. It turned out to have a cracked gear. I was so very pleased with the excellent service! Rick and his wife Bertha were so kind and accommodating. It was a quick turn around from drop off to pick up. I would definitely recommend Rick's Sewing Machine Service! These are good people! read more

Rick serviced and repaired my 50 year old Kenmore sewing machine, and it is working great! Their customer service, communication, drop off and pick up, and the affordable cost of the repair was great! The machine was repaired quickly and efficiently-not overpriced! I am so excited to have my sewing machine back in operation! Both Rick and his wife Bertha were very helpful and cooperative! Thank you! read more

I love these people ! Excellent communication and Rick saved me $125 by not having to send my Singer to the factory, (as another local competitor indicated it needed... to the tune of 200)! They charge a service charge to look at it and that includes the first part of the repairs. Give them a call see what you think! read more

Very friendly customer service from Bertha. Rick assessed the problem with our 30 y/o Pfaff sewing machine, which we had neglected servicing. He cleared out the old gunk that had solidified underneath. We also needed a new pedal, which he had in stock. Given the value of the machine and the cost of repair, this was a great return on our initial investment. Highly recommend Rick for services. read more

Bertha was very friendly. It was easy to coordinate drop off and pick up of my machine. It's a 34 year old machine and was definitely needing a tune up. Thanks, guys! read more

I have a vintage sewing machine that I took to someone else to get serviced. It was such a waste of my time. I had surgery which limits what I can do (lifting and bending) Rick went above beyond to get my beautiful girl running again! The value of the service is great. You can't replace true history. These machines will last a lifetime, if you take care of them. I am happy to say the work done, is amazing! I ran my girl tonight and shes so smooth! I won't be going to anyone else, they are friendly, trustworthy, and efficient. I definitely will be taking my other machines in for serving in the future. Thanks y'all! Much appreciated!! read more

We recently had Rick and Bertha fix up an old Bernina. I'm really happy to have found them - they were able to clean it up and it is now working great! Great service, knowledgeable, honest and a pleasure to deal with. Really appreciate it and highly recommended. If you need your sewing machine repaired, look no further - Rick is awesome. Thanks Rick and Bertha! read more

Great repairman. Knows the products. My Viking 960q needed a service and Rick did it quickly. When I returned home I waited to put the machine back in the cabinet and it froze on me. I called Rick on Sunday night and he helped me. Even called the Viking for me. Good prople read more

So happy to have found Rick and Bertha! It gave me confidence to speak to the person who'd do the work. My machine got expert attention including a repair for literally one-half what it would have cost for cleaning only by an unknown person if I dropped the machine off at a nearby sales and service shop. Thank you both! read more

I would highly recommend ricks sewing machine repair. I called and describe my problem. Thank you so much for giving me what I was talking about and was able to come out to my house quickly. I would call him competent and courteous. And when next I need service, I will definitely be calling him, and he was an excellent value. read more

I called Rick to find out about whether or not to repair my sewing machine and he was honest with me and let me know it wasn't worth it and I really appreciated that because he could've easily said sure bring it in and charged me to try and fix it but he did not so I really appreciate that. Thanks Rick. read more

Excellent service! My Viking Lily had locked up on me after I attempted to use a new walking foot on some tricky fabric. It was time for a service anyway, so Rick got it tuned up beautifully and went the extra mile to find just the right technique and presser foot for my project. I am happily enjoying my newly sewn Sherpa pillow and am delighted to recommend Rick and Bertha for your "go to" place for sewing machine repair in Orange County. read more

A+++ My 20 yr old Brother machine that I've never had serviced started giving me problems with the bobbin that wouldn't resolve no matter how much I tried cleaning it myself. Boy am I glad I found Rick's! He cleaned it up inside and out, replaced the light bulb, and returned my machine looking amazing! Their service was great- so kind, responsive and helpful!! Highly recommend!!! read more

The closest Singer warranty repair shop was 95 miles each way so I took it to Rick. He and his wife were wonderful. they stayed in touch with me and for the $75 I didnt have to go half way across the world to get it taken care of. I was so happy I took them my 50 year old lady Kenmore machine. it's like new! Thank you both!! read more

Wow just WOW! After being charged $600. by PALS Costa Mesa that did not fix my machine with zero support, I purchased a new machine which had started acting up (I used it ALOT during CV19). I was hesitant to even get another machine repaired, thinking it would be less expensive and time consuming to purchase another machine (albeit it would be a serious downgrade) but at this time I was unable to even put myself in a machine that would match what I needed it to do. I hit google to find independant repair shops and started getting quotes for my Singer Futura XL-580. They began at $350! I called Ricks and spoke with Bertha who was knowledgable, friendly and genuinely interested in what led me to them. Then to boot, quality of the work is stellar and the amount I paid for Service was less than half the lowest price quoted. Quick and efficient. What a Blessing to find them, highly recommend!!!! read more

I'm so glad I found Rick! I've been looking for a great sewing machine repair man for years, and he's here! Thanks for the fast and reasonably prices service, Rick! read more

Rick & Bertha helped fix my mom's old sewing machine in just a week! Reasonably priced & super nice and easy to work with!

I would rate Ricks service a 10 if I could. I called him on a Saturday and he came on Sunday and picked up my machine. I was in the middle of a big quilt project when my 30 year old machine quit working. He conditions or repairs the machines himself. He returned the machine the following Thursday and it is almost purring when it sews. read more

I they they switched out machines on me...not really!!! My old sewing machine is over 35-years old and was never serviced or cleaned. It wasn't working right (the stitch options weren't working). Rick fixed it and it's working like new. Very efficient, repaired as promised and the price was very reasonable. Strongly recommend! read more

Rick and his wife Bertha run an honest, friendly, and professional sewing machine repair business. He repaired and serviced my sewing/embroidery machine in less than a week, and did so at a reasonable price. You can tell they really care about their customers and their machines. I will definitely be using Rick's Sewing for all of my future sewing machine needs. Highly recommend! read more

Why only 5 stars!? I need 10 stars so I can tell everyone how awesome this man is! I have a 42 yr old Viking that works like a mule...but after so many years with only one tune up...I found myself looking for someone to tune the gal up! I found Rick and he got it working like new in a couple of days! Super reasonable and honest. My machine looks and runs like new. You can tell he loves his work....everything part is shining like new! Don't look for anyone else. Rick is your guy! read more

My machine is due for its yearly service. Of course this is the place to call since they are very reasonable. I will be calling u this week to schedule a pick up. Thanks again ;)) read more

Rick came to my 88 year old mother-in-laws home to fix her two industrial sewing machines. She was a seamstresses back in the day. Rick knew these machines well. He fixed them and tuned them up. He even gave my Mother-in-law a few pointers so she could do some of the maintenance herself. Overall Rick was a true professional. You can TRUST Rick with your sewing machines, he will take good care of them. read more

Amazing service. Rick brought my serger back to life. He was very responsive and very knowledgeable. Very reasonable pricing for a machine I thought was on the brinks to being replaced. He answered all my questions and did a fantastic job. My sewing has never been so smooth and QUIET! Highly recommend read more

I got quoted a hefty price for the fix of my sewing machine. I went to a local Vietnamese establishment and it was fixed for $5. I am sure Ricks service is fantastic but if you don't have a ton of money I'd consider other alternatives. If money is no worry I'd go with ricks service. read more
