I've never had such a terrible experience somewhere. I brought my engagement ring in to be repaired as it had gotten bent and the settings on the side that held in the smaller diamonds needed to be fixed. I was estimated 3-5 days for the quote and 2 weeks for the repair. I called multiple times to check in on the status as it had taken significantly longer (1 week for the quote and 4 weeks for the repair). Each time I was told it would be done soon and then eventually was told that the jewler had snapped the band while reshaping it. When I finally got it back, they offered me a discount but upon inspection, the one diamond on the side that was repaired was the wrong color (it is an ombre setting and where it should have been a grey diamond, there was a black one). I brought it back in and the owner argued with me that it was like that before despite several pictures and the certificate from the purchase that indicated grey diamonds. They eventually agreed to find a matching diamond and fix it. This was another 4 week process of which they somehow were unable to find a diamond to match the one on the other side or 2 diamonds to match each other. As my shower and wedding were coming up, they said they would set a lighter colored diamond so I could have it back for my shower and then they would call me when they found ones to match. They gave me my money back but the owner made a very inappropriate comment saying "I've taken care of 25k rings and I've put more effort into your ring than I have those ones" -it should not matter how much the ring costs, it was entrusted to you to fix it properly. Needless to say they never called to say they had matching diamonds and its now been over a month. I got married yesterday and today, noticed that the diamond they set has fallen out. Terrible craftsmanship and a terrible experience. If I could give them a 0/5 I would Edit after your comment: I have taken the ring to be looked at somewhere else as the diamond you replaced fell out in less than a month. I was told the setting was missing a claw which caused it to fall out that all of the settings on the other side are loose. Not once was I told there was an issue with the quality of gold and you were more than eager to take my ring and money when I dropped it off. Do not make excuses for your absolutely horrendous craftsmanship when you cannot even properly repair a setting

I couldn’t be happier with the service and staff at Frontenac Jewellers. I recently had work done on 2 pieces of jewellery. The first was 3 rings put into one… my moms wedding rings along with my grandmothers. They did a fantastic job, from the explanation of what could be done, providing an estimate and completing the job to exactly what I wanted. Then I had a pear diamond in a setting with a sharp point and wanted it reset. They went over my options, listened to what I had in mind then made a few suggestions. Again, an estimate was provided. In a week or so, I received an email with a mock-up picture, which I loved and gave approval to continue. I just picked it up and to say I was happy would be an understatement. I am thrilled. Fantastic service from kind, caring staff. Highly recommend this family owned business in our community.

The staff at Frontenac Jewellers is incredibly helpful and proficient when it comes to their service and the quality thereof. I originally went here after I saw the reviews surrounding engagement rings, and, an engagement ring and two wedding bands later, I can say that I am beyond satisfied. Not only is there an abundance of choice, but there is also no prejudice or pressure when it comes to budgeting due to any reason. This is not a place where a staff member will try to push 'the expensive' option onto you at all times, rather, they will adhere to your initial vision, whilst still providing their expertise when useful. If you are in the market for any wedding-related jewelry, I can wholeheartedly recommend Frontenac Jewellers.

I can’t say enough good things about Frontenac Jewellers! Natasa helped us design our engagement ring and she is amazing. We really loved working with her. We didn’t have any experience diamond shopping and so she explained everything to us and we always felt like we had someone working with us and in our corner rather than just selling us something. She was SO respectful of our budget and goals for the ring. She designed a beautiful ring for me and adjusted it to be low profile (for work) while giving great advise about it fitting with a wedding band (things I wouldn’t think of). I would suggest Natasa at Frontenac Jewellers for anyone shopping for engagement rings...she will make the experience a great one!

  • Kevin Thomas

We couldn’t be happier with the work Frontenac Jewellers had done for us! I recently walked into this store with a design for an engagement ring in mind and that’s when I met Natasa. She saw what I liked and promised me she was able to design exactly how I wanted it. She delivered on this promise! She worked with Noam Carver and designed the perfect engagement ring for us! She truly helped us make our engagement even more special! If you’re looking for a great professional Jeweller, Frontenac Jewellers is where you should go!

I recently brought a very important item into Frontenac Jewellers to be sized. It had incredible sentimental value and the people there showed me great sympathy and kindness. The rings were welded together so had to come apart first, be sized down and then welded back as one. They were able to do this while preserving the inside engraving and also touched up the claws to protect the diamond. My ring looks better than ever and is safely back on my hand in half the time I expected. Amazing service - highly recommend. Thank you!

  • Jocelyne Halladay

I brought in a ring that my parents had given me 45+ years ago. It needed to be sized and cleaned. The staff were very kind and took the time to explain all my options. The work was completed on time and on budget. When I went in to try it on I wasn't completely satisfied with the sizing so they volunteered to re-size the ring free of charge. I am very happy with their timely service, attention to detail and their willingness to make the customer happy. Frontenac Jewellers is the best (and their new location is beautiful).

  • Wendy Stevenson

I recently had a custom wedding ring that combined my original wedding band and tenth anniversary ring. I cannot be happier with the result. It is stunning and Natasa listened to every detail I was hoping to have in the ring. The fit is amazing and the end result was more than I could ever had hoped for. If you want a custom piece Frontenac Jewelers is absolutely the place to go. Very professional and family owned. They take great pride in their work. I can’t say enough about the experience beautiful inside and out :-)

  • Melinda Kelly

Peter and the team at Frontenac Jewellers was absolutely amazing to work with when my engagement ring required some work to it. Peter’s attention to detail and persistence to make sure I had the best outcome possible was reassuring and welcomed. I cannot thank you enough for the excellent service, determination in finding the right place for my ring to be sent and follow up. Thank you very much and I highly recommend you trusting your jewelry with Frontenac Jewellers.

  • Kyra Dizy

absolutely incredible experience! just brought my bracelet in for a repair as it broke today. they took a look at it and told me they would just reconnect it and leave the missing piece off (it was so tiny it doesn't even change how tight the bracelet fits) . they did this in about 1 minute and then didn't even charge me. i would 100% recommend this place and will be going back with any larger repairs if i have them in the future!!

  • Stephen Hillaby

Great experience, Frontenac jeweller's provides a personal touch when speaking with their customers. They truly want what is best for what you want. They will tailor your selection based on budget and needs to the best of their abilities. They also educated me further on certain specs of their diamonds to help me with the confidence in my purchase. Also good to know everything I purchased is a Canadian product rather than overseas.

  • Susie Everding

Definitely the place to go to get your watch battery replaced! This family-run business not only serves those who are interested in big-ticket items, but they are also very happy to provide excellent customer service for people like me, who just want a new battery. It may be a pedestrian purchase, but the staff have always been prompt and friendly. Many thanks, and congratulations on your beautiful, new space!

  • Laura W

My fiancé and I worked with Natasa and she was nothing short of amazing. She helped us through the entire design process, and presented us with an amazing and beautiful ring. Even when there was a small issue with the ring after receiving it, she took care of it right away and fast tracked it since she knew I had events later that month. 10/10 service and experience at Frontenac Jewellers

  • Reni Engel

I had a wonderful customer experience with Frontenac Jewellers and my online purchase. Very helpful with all my questions from the start and easy communication by E-Mail. And they made my package look so lovely! A big thank you to you all. Would definitely buy again and recommend Frontenac Jewellers. Many thanks!

  • Graham

What a gem of a store!! Peter was thorough, knowledgeable, and patient with me and didn't pressure at all. Ended up leaving without buying anything but had such a great experience that I went back to get my wedding band there and couldn't be happier. Great selection of men's wedding bands and excellent service!!

  • Heidi Hicks

We've done a lot of work with Frontenac Jewellers - ring resize, antique ring fix and clean, and a fully custom engagement ring. Each piece was completed quickly and beautifully. They were so easy to work with and helped ensure we were happy with each piece. We will only ever go to them for future work!

  • Jennifer Laughlin

I recently went to Frontenac Jewellers to get some help with a piece of estate jewellery. They were so kind and helpful and ensured that I was able to wear the piece, but also were able to give me some advice on ensuring the piece remains in wearable condition. I truly appreciate all their help.

  • Carty Wilson

This place is a real gem! Fantastic people and a stunning selection. The process from design to pickup was flawless. Pricing was very reasonable. We purchased a beautiful piece to celebrate our 15th anniversary and we will be back to celebrate our next milestone!

  • Mathew Santos

Amazing service and very professional. Being a guy going into a beautiful store like this is totally out of my element. I went in to buy an engagement ring, the staff made it a very comfortable, fun and a stress-free experience for me! Highly Recommended.

  • Kristen

I took my engagement ring here to have it resized. The staff were very knowledgeable and we ended up going with sizing beads. They did a fantastic job!
