Jewellery Repair Services

Tempus has been repairing customers jewellery on-site for over 25 years. Not many jewellery repair specialists can boast the range of repair options that Tempus has at its Exmouth retail shop and on-site repair workshops.

Many jewellers have to send items away to workshops, that may or may not be part of their business, to have repair work done. Tempus has its own in-house workshops, its own craftsmen and technical staff. These are always on hand and means that Tempus staff can give you excellent advice
prior to and during your jewellery repair; progress can be checked at any time. Because repair is in-house Tempus gives you the most cost effective routes to repair.

At times an item may require a particular part replaced that can’t be made by our technicians. Tempus would source this but also advise customers clearly about this process if it is required.

All requests for repair can be considered and advised on. If you have any questions please come to our Exmouth shop to discuss your needs.

Repairs to gold & silver jewellery
