We offer a wide variety of jewellery repairs with nearly all jobs completed within a 7-10 day timescale.
Estimates are provided free of charge, and do not delay completion of the job from within the 7-10 day timescale. However, where additional parts are required, for example replacement gemstones, this can extend the time period by 2-3 weeks.
We usually hand deliver & collect our repairs from the workshop enabling us to discuss jobs in person with the craftsmen.

Re- Modelling Of Old Jewellery:
Give new life to your old gold at McKellars Jewellers.
Re-modelling old jewellery into new, takes skill and good design. Often, old stones are un-calibrated, which means a truly bespoke mount is the only option to set them securely.
We can create unique designs, re-styling your unwanted jewellery into something new and outstanding.
We can also buy your unwanted Gold or Silver.
