COMMON REPAIRS
Ring Sizing - Up
Virtually all rings can be sized if you find your measurement has changed. For most cases, the most you can size up a ring without replacing the Shank is up 3 sizes.
Scenarios include
- Ring is too tight/too loose
- Changing finger you wear your ring
- Need to pass your ring over your knuckle
Price estimations are for 1 size. Price varies each additional size.
Ring Sizing - Down
In similar to sizing up, downward sizing works on the same lines, including limitations of down 3 sizes maximum.
Scenarios include
- Ring is too tight/too loose
- Changing finger you wear your ring
- Need to pass your ring over your knuckle
Price estimations are for up to 3 sizes down.
