Jewellery Repair Prices



David Jonns can carry out repairs, alterations and restoration on most types of silver, gold and platinum jewellery. This includes ring sizing, stone setting, re-tipping, stringing and refinishing. We also undertake laser engraving on most items.

All estimates are free of charge. Items repaired (however minor) are cleaned and polished. Solders used will be of the correct carat and pass British hallmarking. Our quoted prices include full labour.

Should you require your item to be hallmarked, David Jonns is Sheffield Assay registered for British Hallmarking.

Most work is completed within 14-21 working days depending on our workload, although it can sometimes be achieved in a shorter timescale upon request. For more details feel free to contact us where we will be happy to discuss your requirements in more detail.

If you have any questions about this service please contact us here at enquiries@davidjonns.com or call us on 0203 583 1298 where we will be happy to discuss your requirements in more detail.

Alternatively you can download and fill out our jewellery repairs form and send your item along for repair.
