How much does prong repair cost?

Prong repair typically costs $24-$60 per prong for re-tipping, or $50-$100+ per prong for a full rebuild. The difference depends on how much of the prong remains: re-tipping adds metal to a worn-down prong, while rebuilding creates an entirely new prong from scratch. Most rings have 4-6 prongs, so a complete prong restoration can range from $100-$600 depending on the extent of wear. Regular prong inspections every 6-12 months can catch wear early, when a simple re-tip is all that's needed—saving you money and protecting your stones from loss.
