Why Temple Terrace calls us
Band uniforms and theatre costumes get altered over and over, and every alteration means picking out stitches and sewing through fabric that has already been through a machine twice. Machines take that hard. We true up the feed, replace worn needle plates, and adjust tension so a machine can handle heavy braid and lining. If you share or rent a machine, bring it in before a busy season rather than during one.
Common repairs here
- Feed and tension adjustment for heavy uniform braid
- Needle plate replacement on machines used for repeat alterations
- Pre-season tune-ups for costume and band rooms

Questions from Temple Terrace customers
How long does the drive take from Temple Terrace?
About 40 minutes across the bay. Try to come outside the morning rush over the Howard Frankland.
Can you look at several school machines at once?
Yes. Call (727) 321-9344 with the number of machines and we will arrange a visit or a group drop-off.
Is my machine worth repairing?
Often, yes. Machines built years ago were made with metal parts and they last. Many of the ones we see just need a good cleaning, fresh oil and an adjustment. We look at it first and tell you what it needs and what it costs. If the repair costs more than the machine is worth, we say so and you decide.
Do you charge for an estimate?
No. Estimates are free. Bring the machine to the shop, we will look at it, and we will tell you the cost before any billed work is done.
Do I need an appointment?
No. Come by Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM and drop the machine off. If you would rather call first, the number is (727) 321-9344.
Is your machine giving you trouble?
Call and tell us what it is doing. The estimate is free and you do not need the model number.
