I took in a ring that lost the center stone. I decided I wanted the ring completely redesigned with a different stone. I explained to Doug what I had in mind, and he showed me several pictures, and we talked about the options until I finally made up my mind. Within a couple of days, he called and gave me an update on how things were going, and I had my new ring in just over a week. I am extremely happy with it!! He also looked at my wedding ring while I was in there and showed me I was on the verge of losing a diamond and fixed that as well. He was nice, professional and friendly. I will definitely use him again.

Look no further! To whom this may concern, Dough Chapin is an excellent choice for doing business for any jewelry needs. He has a mass selection of a variety of different types of jewelry that he can order. Most importantly, he can fix, maintenance, restore, resize, and do custom work on any jewelry piece. Doug was a really nice person and a great help for my fiancée and I. He was able resize her brand new engagement ring in a very fast and convenient time compare to very long waits at other places. I will 100% be coming back here for now on for all my jewelry needs.

Doug did an excellent job on resizing my engagement ring even though my ring finger was difficult for him ??. I am definitely going to be going to him for my next ring resizing.

I entrusted LDC with my grandmother’s wedding ring to clean up, tip prongs and make it look like new again. He sure did that! It is beautiful and I can’t wait to wear it. Reasonably priced! I will do business again. Thank you!

I found Doug's shop online when I was researching jewelers who could resize my engagement ring. My ring had already been sized once but, it needed to go down another size. The first jeweler I used outsourced the repair work, it took a solid week and they charged me $150-- having your ring stripped away for that long is not fun when you are newly engaged. I called Doug on a Wednesday to let him know my situation and that I'd be commuting to his shop from Aptos on Friday. I'm happy I called because he does deliveries in Carmel on Friday mornings and arrives at the shop later than normal hours. When I got there, we discussed sizing and timing for the repair. He wanted to keep it over the weekend, but since I had made the special trip, he charged me a little extra ($100 total for the work, normally he charges $75) and had it ready in 3 hours! It's really hard to find a jeweler who will do work in-house, I trusted him, and honestly, his work was incredible. I gave him a tip and promised him a 5-star review (he deserved it!). I have some more fine jewelry that needs to be repaired and I will 100% be going to Doug's shop again!

Resized a ring here with platinum material. I came on the day I called, no appointment was necessary, and it was ready within 1 hour. Price was $75 because it was platinum, if it were a different material I believe it would cost around $50.

My wife took my ring in to get it sized up and when it came back, omg, it was a perfect fit and it shined better than when I bought it new. Great guy, and GREAT service. I have some old Disney watches that are going in this week for restoring. Hopefully he does that since he seems to do it all. I will do an update once I get them back. Soo excited to take these to him.

I had a wonderful experience with LDC Jewelers Manufacturing and Repair.Their staff was very knowledgeable and helpful. I had to replace a diamond in my ring and they helped me find the perfect diamond to match (this ring has antique diamonds which are rare and a challenge to match).They took their time in their consultation with me, charged a fair and reasonable price and were extremely friendly and courteous.

They take excellent care of their clientele. The styles are beautiful. The staff doesn`t hassle you if you`re just looking, they just let you look. They created my engagement ring from a drawing on a cocktail napkin. It`s perfect!

Their attention to detail, kindness, and patience is greatly appreciated. They are, by far, the best jewelry store I have dealt with and I would suggest them to anyone.
