BBS Jewelers is always my "go to " place. Excellent service. I have had a few repairs done there over the years and I would not choose anywhere else. I also like that they have estate jewelry.

I had some jewelry to trade for diamond earrings; one of which I liked more than the other in the set. So Angela and John found another diamond to make a switch to better compliment the one earring I preferred of the two. I am happy as a clam and they really made a fair trade. Also repaired a loose mounting for my wedding band. They bent over backward and I walked out with a happy smile on my face. If you are looking for some serious bling, check them out. They have jewelry for every budget. Ive been going here for 25 years and won't go anywhere else if I can help it.

Angela was awesome! I took pieces that some diamonds had fallen out of a ring and earring. The repairs look flawless and the price was reasonable! I will be taking my jewelry here for repairs! If I could give 10 stars I would. Thank you BBS Jewelers!

Our first time in the store was a top notch experience. The people were very polite, helpful and knowledgeable. They took their time and we did not feel rushed. We left some jewelry pieces for repair only to have them ready the following day. Both pieces were restored to better than new quality. I would highly recommend this establishment for their selection, expertise and friendliness. An added bonus was a very sweet French bulldog named Brick. Loved the puppy kisses.
