If you've ever broken a chain mid-party or caught your ring on the corner of a drawer, you're not alone—and you're in the right place.
At Jeff White Custom Jewelry, we handle in-house repairs every day. Some are straightforward. Others take a little finesse. Here’s what we fix all the time, what needs more care, and why it actually matters where you get your jewelry repaired.
🔧 Quick & Common Repairs (We See These All the Time)
Ring resizing – starts at $90 depending on metal and direction
Chain soldering – starts at $45
Clasp replacement – typically $50+
Stone tightening & maintenance service – starts at $90 and includes a full cleaning, stone check, and any minor adjustments to bring your ring back to life (yes, like Evanescence — we bring it back to life)
We’re not bargain basement cheap—but we are fair, and we stand behind everything we do. Repairs are done on-site by someone you can actually talk to. No shipping. No mystery. No “3-week turnaround for a solder job.”
⏳ Repairs That Take More Time (and Why)
Some things just shouldn’t be rushed:
Rebuilding worn or damaged settings
Reshaping crushed or distorted rings
Vintage or heirloom restorations
Matching finishes like satin, brushed, or oxidized metal
These take time because they deserve it. We’ll always give you a clear estimate and never make promises we can’t keep.
🚫 What We Don’t Work On (And Why)
We’re good at what we do—and part of that means not saying yes to every job.
Invisible-set jewelry
Tension settings
Plated, costume, or mystery metals
Anything that’s been “repaired” with glue or blind optimism
If we can’t stand behind the repair, we don’t take it in. That protects you and us.
