Snapped Bridge Repair

from £90.00
Bonding Type:
Deep Clean:

When the bridge of your glasses or sunglasses has broken, we offer several solutions depending on your budget and how long you want the frame to last:

Option 1 – Bonded Bridge Repair (£90, or £100 with deep clean)
We bond and pin the bridge from the inside. This is a functional “last chance saloon” option — not invisible, but strong enough to get you through to your next eye test.

Option 2 – Replacement Frame Front (£250)
If your frame model is still in production, we can source a brand-new front section and fit your existing sides and lenses. This restores the frame to near-new condition.

Option 3 – Handmade Custom Frame (from £490)
When replacement isn’t possible, we can recreate your broken frame as a handmade copy, crafted from Italian acetates. This takes around 12 weeks but gives you a permanent solution that matches the look and fit of your original.

Turnaround

  • Bonded repair: 1–2 weeks

  • Replacement front: 2–3 weeks (subject to parts availability)

  • Handmade replica: 12 weeks

How it works

  1. Place your order online to receive an order number.

  2. Complete the Frame Check-In Form (include photos if possible).

  3. Post your glasses with your name + order number in the parcel.

Good to know

  • Bonded repairs are best for acetate/plastic fronts; metal bridges typically need solder repair.
  • We colour-match and finish to blend repairs sympathetically; minor witness lines may remain on older plastics.
  • If repair isn’t viable, we’ll confirm alternatives before proceeding.

  1. Order online to receive your order number.
  2. Complete the Frame Check-In Form (upload clear photos of the break).
  3. Post your glasses with your name + order number in the parcel.

Snapped bridge – FAQs

Will a bonded repair be visible?

We pin and bond internally then colour-match and polish. On older/opaque acetates a faint line may remain; we’ll advise after inspection.

Is a replacement front identical to mine?

Only if OEM parts exist. Where not available, we’ll discuss closest-match fronts or a handmade replica option.

Is the repair strong?

Pinned/bonded bridges are strong for day-to-day use, but avoid high heat and rough handling to maximise longevity.
