Prong Repair

Over time, jewelry wears down due to normal wear and tear. Specifically, the prongs on rings loosen making it easier for the diamond to loosen and fall off. Our tip repair, worn prong repair, or full-prong repair services include tightening the gemstone to avoid this issue.

Steam Cleaning

The more you wear your jewelry, the more it traps dirt and debris. That’s why we offer professional steam cleaning for your jewelry. Professional steam cleaning removes harmful bacteria and restores the original shine to your pieces. Make sure to have your jewelry steam cleaned multiple times a year to prolong its durability and kill any harmful bacteria trapped within it. 

Ring Resizing

Your ring must fit on your finger. You don't want it to be too loose and slip off, nor do you want it too tight and uncomfortable to wear. Visit us for a proper ring sizing. We’ll measure your finger to determine the proper size and adjust it one to two sizes depending on its style. 

Chain Clasp Repair

After a while, your chain clasp may begin to wear out. You may notice it fails to open or close correctly. Take it to Albert’s. We’ll replace any broken clasp, and shorten or lengthen the chain based on your personal preferences so that it's secure around your neck.

Strap and Bracelet Resizing

If your watch strap or bracelet feels loose or uncomfortably tight, we can resize it. We’ll adjust your timepiece so that it remains secure on your wrist. If you don’t like your current strap, we can also replace it with a new one. 

Watch Battery Replacement

Additionally, we replace watch batteries - and can do so while you wait. Oftentimes if a timepiece stops working, it’s simply because the battery has died -  We also offer water seal and professional polishing. That way, your watch remains a fashionable accessory without risking water damage or surface debris.
