Why do I need to get my jewellery valued?

Simply call 01582 833800 or email [email protected] to book an appointment. 

What can I expect from the meeting?

Your valuation is carried out on our premises (no possibility of loss in transit) in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere.

A typical way for a valuer to charge is by percentage.  We looked to avoid this to offer transparency.  (Where a percentage is charged the customer doesn’t know what charge it is until the valuation is done.  Also, if disputed at court then a perceived bias may be implied. £50 per item is a transparent fee)

Valuations are produced using the GuildPro valuation software with full item detail and images. A limited view of the valuation is uploaded to the secure eRegister database. No client information is uploaded. The eRegister information can be viewed by insurers, with client permission.The Police also have access to the database enabling item return to original owner in the case of recovery after loss or theft.

Steven can offer advice on repairs – which can then be carried out on premises.
