Jewellery Repairs

As part of the services provided at Buck & Co Jewellers, we offer a wide range of jewellery repairs, all carried out in-house within the security of our shop. From basic repairs to the more complex gem setting and diamond mounting, gold plating and gilding, we have the tools, knowledge and the qualified and experienced staff to provide a comprehensive and professional service.

General Repairs

Our qualified and experienced Goldsmith is able to undertake all repairs in our shop in Bodmin, without the need to send your treasured jewellery away.

​

This can include basic repairs such as replacing worn out catches and clasps, chain repairs, and cleaning and polishing items to make your treasured items as good as new.

​

More complex repairs can include repairing claws on diamond and gem set rings, replacing and restoring mounts and settings, and the sympathetic restoration of antique pieces. 

​

We are happy to discuss your requirements with you, and when we have seen and assessed the item will provide a free, no-obligation quote and time scale for the work to be completed in.

Ring Sizing

We provide a ring sizing service where we can resize your

rings by either adding or removing  precious metal. Our qualified Goldsmith is experienced in working with all precious metals, including the notoriously hard to work platinum.

​

It is important to note that we do not stretch rings. This is poor practice and can damage the overall integrity of the piece as a whole. 

Plating Services

We are able to carry out gold, silver and rhodium plating, all to a high standard and done on the premises with on need to send your treasured items away to an unknown location.

​

Most commercially purchased white gold jewellery is now rhodium finished at the time of manufacture, Buck & Co are able to reinstate this finish for you to restore your items to how they looked at the time of purchase.

Gemstone Replacement

We can supply and set missing gemstones to a very high standard. By having access to some of the UK's premier polished coloured stones and diamond suppliers, our Gemmologist Alexandra is able to accurately colour and cut match stones.

​

This service is particularly relevant with antique jewellery, where value can be hugely affected by the quality of replacement stones and the work which is carried out. The outcome can massively affect the value of the piece concerned and in most cases, restoration work should be sympathetic to the age of the piece concerned.

What to know About Repairs

Repairs can sometimes be complex and, because of the variable nature and make up of a piece of jewellery, we will only give estimates if we have physically seen the piece. Our estimates are free of charge, and because all our work is carried out in-house we will always do our best to accommodate special occasions, or tight deadlines if possible.

​

Buck & Co Jewellers are always happy to provide you with our professional opinion and advise on individual restoration work.
