A jewelry repair shop that operated inside the Sunrise Mall for decades has rebranded and is relocating to the Marketplace at Birdcage shopping center.
According to notices posted on the doors of the former location in the Sunrise Mall dated April 14, Fast Fix Jewelry and Watch Repairs has rebranded as Flawless Fix Fine Jewelry and Repair and is relocating to 6100 Birdcage Centre Ln., Suite 112.
Leasing documents for the Marketplace at Birdcage show Flawless Fix coming soon to the Marketplace at Birdcage behind Jamba Juice and Verizon Wireless. A Sentinel staff visit to the new location last week found construction ongoing inside the building. Signs on the former location’s doors indicate an anticipated opening in May.
Trish Gonsalves, director of leasing with Gerrity, a property management company for the Marketplace at Birdcage, confirmed that Fast Fix has rebranded as Flawless Fix and is anticipating opening on May 17.
According to the company’s website, Fast Fix operates other locations throughout California and repairs watches, jewelry, and glass frames. The shop also offers custom jewelry design, engraving, ring resizing, and appraisal services.
Multiple stores within the mall have closed or relocated in the last year amid the city’s efforts to redevelop the Sunrise Mall. A directory map on the Sunrise Mall’s website that still shows multiple stores that have since become vacant prompted a visit by Sentinel staff in April to confirm which stores remain open. Currently, four other jewelry stores still operate at the mall, including Kay’s Jewelers, Ron’s Jewelers, Sam’s Jewelers, and Infinity Jewelers.
According to the company’s website, Fast Fix opened in December 1984 in a mall in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, and currently operates over 150 franchise locations in 26 states as well as five locations in Ireland. Fast Fix typically operates stores in regional malls and shows a location on Galleria Boulevard in Roseville, as well as one in the Solano Town Center shopping mall in Fairfield.
Representatives of Flawless Fix could not be reached for comment. Multiple requests for comment from mall management were not returned.
