Very well. It needed a new plate which he did not have, but Norm told me where to get it specific to my old machine. He fixed the programming and lots of other stuff. But hardly charged as he could not get the plate . So I was grateful he did all he did! I can tell he is very trustworthy.
Description of Work: Very knowledgeable about my machine and friendly. Sewing machine did not work and needed lots of reconfiguration.

Description of Work: Our central vacuum system failed and Himebaugh's replaced the unit with a new, much more powerful unit. The only issue was that the manufacturer was slow in shipping the unit. Once it came in, Himebaugh installed it right away. The installation was prompt and clean.

This was my first time using this company. Great service at a good price. The owner, Norm Himebaugh, has great customer service and knowledge regarding the products that he services. My repair was complete within 2 days and runs like new. We will continue to have Himebaugh's repair our home and commercial vacuum's.

He is top notch. We take the sewing machine in for a total repair and we are completely good with what he did. He is a master sewing machine mechanic and he teaches regional classes. He is so good that he has a customer in Hawaii that sends her machine to him to get it looked at. What he does on tune-up and repair, he guarantees the work for I think 3 years. So if anything goes wrong with it, he will do the labor for free. It’s a little expensive for the initial work, but you can take it in just for a touch up or cleaning over the 3 years. As many times as you think that you need to take it back if you think anything is wrong with it, it’s all covered by the one initial repair.
Description of Work: We have used Himebaugh's Sewing & Vacuum Centers for sewing machine repair.

Would totally recommend their services! Only slight negative, tech was having a family health crisis so it took a little longer for work to be done than was suggested; but totally understandable. I dropped the vacuum off at the shop, though a little out of the way, but would definitely use them again!
Description of Work: Got my beater brush working again on my vacuum and did a mini tune-up for me, including deodorizing the whole machine. Replaced filter and bag, all for a very reasonable price!

The man was very personable. I went to get an estimate on a repair and ended up buying a new one. The only bad thing is that they are 'on the other side of the world,' but really they were very good. The guy was upfront and even offered a discount.

Norm takes care of his customers. A few months ago I purchased another type of vac from Norm and it performs just as he described. His advice is "spot on"! No need to shop anywhere else!
Description of Work: Purchased new vac several years ago from Norm and anytime I had an issue or question Norm took care of it. I blew up my new vac motor and Norm was able to get me a new motor installed right away and I could not believe how inexpensively he made the repair. Since then I have had to replace a couple of the attachments that I either broke or wore out and I'm always pleasantly surprised with the cost. Norm takes care of his customers. A few months ago I purchased another type of vac from Norm and it performs just as he described. His advice is "spot on"! No need to shop anywhere else!

I use my sewing machine every day and do a lot of machine quilting. They do an excellent job of keeping it in tip-top shape. Additionally, twice they have repaired my machine 'on the spot' the day before a class - much to my relief. (Both repairs were minor and my fault.)

I called and spoke to Lindsay on Thursday and asked if they could install it the next day. They showed up and installed it. Did a great job. I really felt like I was dealing with a family company that would stand behind their work.

I LIKE SOMEONE WHO DOESN'T TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE PUBLIC, AND IS WILLING TO DO A SIMPLE THING WITHOUT CHARGE.
Description of Work: OUR OLD MACHINE STOPPED WORKING AND WE COULDN'T FIGURE HOW TO REPAIR IT. WE TRIED HIMEBAUGHSFROM THE LIST. HE COULD HAVE EASILY TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF OUR IGNORANCE, BUT HE FOUND A HIDDEN RESET BUTTON AND PRESTO, WE WERE BACK IN BUSINESS. HE LAUGHED AND CARRIED THE VACUUM TO THE TRUNK. WE'LL BE BACK!

Description of Work: THE POWER HEAD ON MY ELECTROLUX VACUUM WAS NOT WORKING. I WAS CONSIDERING BUYING A BRAND NEW $400+ VACUUM, BUT NORM SHOWED ME THAT I COULD FIX MY CURRENT VACUUM FOR SIGNIFICANTLY LESS BY REPLACING THE HOSE.
