Repairs & Alterations

Keeping Your Jewellery In Excellent Condition

With decades of craftsmanship behind us, we treat every item as if it were our own.

From ring resizing, chain repairs, and clasp replacements to re-tipping claws, resetting stones, or restoring antique pieces, all work is completed to the highest standard using quality materials

Caring for Your Jewellery

To keep your jewellery looking its best, we recommend bringing it to Lanes for a professional clean and inspection at least once a year.

This not only restores its sparkle but also allows us to check for signs of wear or damage and recommend any necessary repairs before issues develop further. If a treasured piece becomes damaged, our skilled team offers a first-class repair service, restoring it with care and precision. We also specialise in full restorations, breathing new life into well-loved jewellery so it can be worn and enjoyed for years to come.

Our Workshop

At Lanes, our fully equipped on-site workshop is the heart of our craftsmanship. With over 35 years of hands-on bench experience and a wide array of traditional tools, we're proud to say “yes” to most repair & restoration challenges.

We’ve also invested in cutting-edge technology, including a precision laser welding unit. This allows us to carry out delicate repairs and create pieces that would have been difficult — or even impossible — to achieve with conventional methods alone.Combining time-honoured skills with modern innovation, we’re able to offer exceptional workmanship on every piece that passes through our workshop.
