Frequently Asked Questions
01
How much does it cost?
In two words - it depends. The general approximate prices are listed here. However, cost will depend on the complexity of the job and time needed to complete it. The price does not depend on the material that is being cut, but on the style, coverage, detail and background. If you need to receive an estimated quote for an engraving job, please e-mail lvvpengraving@gmail.com and include a clear, high quality picture of the item to be engraved along with a clear description of what you need. Roughly estimated price range can be then given over the e-mail, however to get a more accurate quote, we will need to see the item in person. Once we have finalized the design to be engraved, a firm price can be set.
02
How long will it take?
Depending on the time of year, turnaround time depends on the complexity of the job. Small items like knives, lettering, monograms, and engraving repair are done quickly, usually within two/three weeks. For all other jobs, time frames can be discussed and negotiated individually.
