Frequently Asked Questions About Jewelry Repair

Before leaving your piece with a jeweler, you should feel confident in their ability to perform the repairs you need. Questions we recommend asking before committing to a jewelry repair service include:

  • What types of repairs do you do?
  • How long have you been doing those types of repairs?
  • Will this repair be completed on-premise or off-premise?
  • Do you clean and check jewelry before repairing it?
  • Are you an American Gem Society jeweler?
  • How long will the repairs take? Why will it take that long?
  • Can I get an appraisal while I’m here?
  • How do you document this?
  • How will I know this is my item when I pick it up?
  • Is it insured while it’s here?
  • What is your warranty?

In general, we recommend that you ask questions about the nature and expertise of the store and jewelers rather than specific repair questions so that you can feel confident leaving your piece in their hands.

At Nelson Coleman jewelers, we are 100% dedicated to consumer ethics as a member of the American Gem Society; we will always document your repair with written descriptions and pictures before repairs so that you can trust you are receiving your exact item upon completion.

Your jeweler should also ask what your day-to-day lifestyle is like. In asking this, they can get a better sense of the wear and tear that is likely to occur, and they can also provide more accurate guidelines on how and when to wear your pieces after the repair.

There are some things you can do at home to clean your jewelry, but it is always best to take your jewelry to a professional if it is in need of repair. Fixing broken chains, loose stones, bent metal, and other repairs are all things that require specialized tools and knowledge, so it is best to leave them to the professionals.

Nelson Coleman Jewelers’ jewelry repair services are individualized for each jewelry piece brought to us for repairs or restoration work. Thanks to our free estimate service, we’re happy to provide you with the cost expectation up front before our work begins on your piece.

Ring resizing is popular among Nelson Coleman Jewelers’ jewelry repair services. To ensure your ring is safe for you to wear and to ensure the longevity of your ring, it’s critical to be certain your ring fits your finger correctly.

At Nelson Coleman Jewelers, we utilize a laser in resizing rings. Lasers create stronger joints and do not show a seam, unlike solders, which create weak joints and seam lines.

Because multiple factors are involved in ring resizing—from band thickness and type of metal to the number of stones—we are not able to offer a ring resizing starting price without first inspecting your ring.

We can assure you that our ring resizing costs are guided by standard industry pricing.

Nelson Coleman’s watch repair services, including watch battery replacement, are another cornerstone to our store’s jewelry repair services.

When it comes to watches, Nelson Coleman has you covered. We replace watch batteries and watch bands. Please note that we cannot reseal water-resistant watches in our store but can still provide this service to you by having pressure testing completed out of house.

Yes, at Nelson Coleman Jewelers, we also remove watch links. We happily provide watch band sizing and other watch services such as the replacement and polishing of dials as well as the repair and replacement of stems and crowns.

We take the quality of our work very seriously. One of our master jewelers will handle your repair, no matter how small. We prioritize high-quality, master-level work – so while we don’t offer many while-you-wait options, you can always trust that the quality of your repairs will be consistent and professional.

Repairs are completed on a first-come, first-serve basis so that we can ensure we give the same level of service to all of our clients. As such, the time it takes to complete your repair may vary. We typically estimate that repairs will take between 2 and 3 weeks, but we may finish it sooner!

When we receive a repair request, we add that item to our queue, which also includes inspections for appraisals. We will always provide you with an estimate that is as accurate and transparent as possible so that you know exactly what to expect. 

Need Your Repairs in a Hurry? We Understand!

Whether you need something repaired urgently for a special occasion or you simply don’t want to be without your piece for very long, we can work with you to expedite the process. For an additional rush fee (an added 50% of the cost of repairs), we can put your request ahead of the other items in our queue.

When we provide an estimate for repairs, we never make up our own prices. Instead, we use a nationwide pricing model for consistent prices and equitable estimates. For the most part, the cost of repairs is based on labor and materials, and we are committed to servicing our clientele with expert precision in our work.

If you are in need of any jewelry repair services, we encourage you to schedule an appointment so that we can inspect the piece and provide an estimate of the recommended repairs. Estimates are always free. We may be able to give an estimate when you bring your piece into the store, but some requests, such as restoration repairs, require a proper inspection from one of our master jewelers before we can give an accurate estimate. 

We receive calls every day requesting cost estimates for ring sizings, but we always recommend that you bring your piece into the store to get the most accurate estimate. There are so many factors that could affect the cost of repairs – including whether you are sizing up or down, what metal the ring is made of, whether there are any stones or engravings in the band, and more – and we want to make sure we can provide an accurate estimate for your specific request. You can simply bring your ring into our store or schedule an appointment for a free estimate.
