What Our Clients Say.

Dixon jewellers did and AMAZING job saving my engagement ring. It needed to be resized 4 sizes smaller but due to the intricate design of the band multiple jewelers told me it either wasn't possible/ I should buy a new ring/ remake the band at an outrages price. Dixon jewellers re-custom made my ring for me replicating it to a T!! I could never even tell it was remade, it is identical! I could not be more thrilled. And the cost was extremely fair as well! I would highly recommend their craftsmanship!

I’ve used Dixon for several repairs and sizings over the years and always quality work at a very good price. Most recently had a curb chain fixed (broken link) and was less than half the price of other stores and as usual amazing work, you can’t see where the break was. I also know people who have had custom engagement rings made by them and again Dixon did an amazing job.

S. Watson
Great service! The lady who works there is super nice and friendly! I needed my ring tightened because the center stone was loose, but when I took it to Howard's they said they would have to melt it and rebuild it at a cost of $600. The ring was less than 6 months old I had just hit my hand on something. But at Dixon's they tightened it and I haven't had any problems. They also do custom designs! :)

Everyone at Dixon's is incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. I've had several pieces of heirloom jewelry serviced by them, and have always been more than satisfied by the work done, the turn around time and prices. I love that they do their work on site, and are locally owned.

After a bike accident, I had to repair a ring that a family member made for me. Huge sentimental value! The staff at Dixon was lovely - welcoming, understanding, thoughtful and conscientious. The work they did was perfect, too. Highly recommended.

Alexandra Y.
The two ladies in the front really seem to care about your experience and clearly love what they do! I took in two pieces that I had been given as gifts that required a little TLC, and their advice and expertise was marvelous! I am so happy about the service I received and excited to get them back. Dixon's has really fair prices for the work I am having done.

Common Jewellery Repairs.

Is your jewellery looking a little tired, has it lost it’s sparkle? No problem, bring it in anytime for a free inspection and we will give it a complimentary steam clean while you’re here (provided no repair needs are identified that would compromise the safety of your item). If it needs a bit more than a quick steam we can give it a full polish (starting at $30) and, if it’s really got some big dents or gouges then we can provide a quote for refinishing. If it’s an item you bought from us, we will provide free polishing for life!
Many items of jewellery have a thin coating applied to them to either change or improve the colour of the piece - the most common example is rhodium plating on most white gold jewellery. When this layer wears off you may notice that your item looks duller or has a yellow tinge to it. Not to fear though - we can replate most jewellery items and return them to the shiny piece you fell in love with (some exceptions apply, notably costume jewellery). Rhodium plating starts at only $80 (or it’s free if you bought the item from us).
Over time the small prongs or “claws” that hold your stones in place wear down. When this happens you may notice your ring catching or scratching, which can eventually lead to stone loss if left too long. Retipping your claws ensures that your stone will be safe for many happy years to come. We recommend that most rings be checked on an annual basis just to make sure that everything is ship-shape. Please, feel free to bring your jewellery by for free cleanings and inspections any time - we will let you know if any retipping or repairs are required and provide you with a free quote.
Does your ring fit loose, does it wobble to a fro? We can fix that! We can size your ring up or down as necessary, no muss, no fuss. Whether it’s silver, gold or platinum we will make sure your ring is made to fit just right for you. Bring it in for a free estimate anytime, we will measure your finger while you’re here and let you know the cost up front. If your ring is very thin/worn (common with vintage rings) or if your shank is broken, then we may recommend something called ‘re-shanking’. This is a full replacement of the metal at the back of your ring and will ensure that your ring stays safe on your finger for many more years to come.
Do you have a break in your favourite piece? Maybe your chain got pulled or the post fell off your earring - most jewellery repairs involve some sort of soldering. We provide many different varieties of soldering (ie. torch, laser, soft) and will determine which method will be most effective for your repair needs.
For items that were once glued but have since come un-stuck - we can re-secure it for you! Common with pearls and crystal jewellery, setting glue will wear down over time and eventually just let go. While re-gluing something may seem a simple task, it is important that the right type of glue be applied for the specific materials. We want to ensure that your bond will last as long as possible as well avoid any unsightly glue globs! Leave it to us, re-gluing starts as low as $15. Please note, if you have one earring that has come unglued, bring us both! Usually when one lets go the other is not far behind.
Whether your pearl or bead necklace has already broken or the cord is just starting to look a little worn, we can help restring it. There are two common methods of restring, with and without knots. We will help you determine which is best for your strand. Restringing without knots starts at $1.50 per inch, with knots starts at $2.50 per inch.
It is not unusual for stones to come loose or even occasionally come out of their settings, especially those really little ones. If your stone has popped out and you found it (phew!) or even if it’s lost on a train in Tokyo we can help re-set and/or replace it. We will first determine the reason that your stone came out to begin with, let you know what our recommendations are for securing it and provide you with a quote up front. If you lost your stone, our expert gemmologists will make sure to source something that is as similar as possible to the rest of the stones in your piece, ensuring a seamless fit that no-one will be able to notice.
