What Are Jewelry Repair Services?

Repairing jewelry includes services such as adjusting rings to fit a different finger size, reconstructing broken chains, fixing clasps, tightening or replacing stones that are loose or missing, or stabilizing areas with metal fatigue.

How Much Do Jewelry Repairs Cost?

Repairing your jewelry relies on varied tools, techniques and time. The final repair cost will thus depend on the item, the materials, and the extent and complexity of the work required. At JPratt, we are happy to include an estimate prior to completing any work. We also cannot guarantee that a repair or the ability to repair over the phone. It is always best to have a knowledgeable jeweler review what the issue is in person and discuss how the repair would best be completed.

Here are some guidelines on what to expect for some common jewelry repair service requests:

  • Cleaning: For a cleaning and shining service, including buffing out shallow scratches, anticipate a fee of $80.
  • Ring resizing: Sizing up may require additional metal, so expect to pay from $90 to over $200.
  • Fixing a broken chain: This fix, which usually requires soldering, can cost between $30-$230, depending on the fractured area and the metal type. It’s usually between $30 and $35 for a single link repair.
  • Replacing a clasp: Expect to pay between $65 to $250 or more, depending on the metal type, size and style of the clasp. 
  • Remounting a stone: Expect wide variations in costs for this type of repair, as there are numerous settings, sizes and mounting styles. However, as a guide, budget $50 to $175.

We are happy to provide an informed estimate to help you understand the fee involved in your jewelry repair services. 

Who Repairs Jewelry? 

Typically, professional jewelers and jewelry repair technicians can repair your pieces.

This type of jeweler has a wide range of skills, including making adjustments, adding or removing pieces, repositioning or remounting, soldering parts together, replacing clasps, stones, or links, cleaning and polishing metals and gems, repairing and soldering, and handling mechanical jewelry pieces. 

In addition, they are proficient in managing and maintaining equipment such as fixtures, jigs, polishers, and soldering irons and using hand tools, including shapers, gougers, cutters and scrapers.  

A trained, qualified jeweler or repair technician will maintain or repair your piece without leaving any visible evidence, such as tool marks, visible seams, stretched shanks or damage to stones.

How Long Does Jewelry Repair Take?

Avoid rushing your jewelry repairs unless you’re getting married within the next few days. Master jewelers with specialized skills are hard to find, and their meticulous work takes time. 

As a result, relying on a reputable and professional jewelry repair service can mean a wait of one to three weeks, depending on capacity and the nature and extent of the work required.     

Why Repair Your Jewelry? 

Even when jewelry is well maintained and carefully stored, wearing your favorite pieces daily can result in erosion, metal fatigue, and general wear and tear. In addition, breaks and damage may occur accidentally. 

So to keep your items in good condition, extend their longevity, your enjoyment, and maintain the piece’s value — especially for family heirlooms — professional repairs and replacements are often unavoidable, and regular cleaning and maintenance are recommended. 

Crucially, don’t take risks when you’ve invested in fine jewelry. Instead, rely on qualified and experienced local jewelry repair services like JPratt Designs for reliable, durable and value-for-money results.
