Service From The Start

The moment you call us, you will know that you are dealing with a professional company. We can advise you on any aspect of Electro Plating and Metal Finishing. Our friendly and experienced staff will ensure that each order is fully monitored and controlled from start to finish.

Traditional Care

Despite the advances in technology, we will insist that all orders are individually handled by one of our full trained craftsmen. This allows us to inspect every item during processing. Only when we are satisfied that each component is finished to the highest possible standard will we pass it to our dispatch department. Here each item is carefully and securely wrapped in its own clearly labelled packaging, ready for shipping. At Douglas each and every product is minutely checked again before we allow it to leave.

Service To The Finish

For major manufacturers or stockists we are able to offer warehouse space to hold free issue stock. This gives our customers the opportunity to reduce their stock level of finished goods, safe in the knowledge that, with controlled accurate scheduling, we can deliver the goods as they are needed. We can collect from your premises and returned the finished articles to most parts of the UK, usually within seven days, using our own fleet of delivery vehicles. In exceptional circumstances we may use reputable courier companies, but in all cases goods in transit are fully insured.

We provide quality service to all our clients

    Just to let you know that the flange arrived on Saturday and is absolutely beautiful. I don't think it was as good when it was new!  We're delighted with the result especially as this particular item is no longer available and my husband has grown very fond of it over the last 10 years! Thank you very much indeed.  I will certainly recommend your company to anyone who is looking for something like this.

    Am in the process of restoring a MK2 Jaguar to concourse condition. I was so impressed with Bishop - Classic Car Chroming - not only with the prompt service, but primarily, to the high degree of finish – irrespective of whether the part was large or small – all the workforce should be congratulated and praised for their dedication and professionalism. Many thanks Bishop and to all those involved. As “Arnold” once said; “I will be back”!

    Dean, Val and all staff at Douglas Goods arrived lunchtime on 4 June, as promised.  We are thrilled with the transformation of the bathroom accessories and certainly, before we came to your premises, did we think that these items which are well over 20 years old, could be made to look brand new.  We would like to say many thanks to you all for the work done and the courtesy, friendliness and efficiency of your company - which is a rare thing these days. We shall have no hesitation in recommending Douglas to anyone who needs similar work done.
