How Often Should You Get Your Engagement Ring Checked or Cleaned?
Your engagement ring isn’t just a piece of jewelry — it’s a daily symbol of love, commitment, and one of the most meaningful moments in your life.
But like anything you wear every day, it needs a little TLC to stay in top shape.
So how often should you get your ring checked or cleaned?
At Doland Jewelers, we recommend:
👉Every 6 months.
Here’s why that simple routine matters — and how we make it easy for you.
🧼 Why Cleanings Matter
Daily wear exposes your ring to:
- Lotions and hand soap
- Hair products and makeup
- Dust, dirt, and even food (yes, it happens)
All of this builds up over time and dulls your diamond’s sparkle. Even if it looks fine to the naked eye, you’ll be amazed how much brighter it shines after a proper professional cleaning.
🔍 Why You Should Get It Checked
Equally important: making sure your ring is structurally secure.
Every 6 months, a quick check can catch:
- Loose prongs or claws
- Worn settings
- Bent bands
- Loose or missing side stones
Catching these early can prevent you from losing a diamond — and save you from expensive repairs later.
