Gold Plating in Wokingham
Rings, watches, hardware and decorative pieces replated in genuine gold. Free quote, insured collection and return across Wokingham.
Wokingham is a market town with modern business parks around it, so our work there runs from replating a worn wedding ring for a resident to plating a run of product components for a firm off the A329M. The town's older centre also sends us decorative and architectural pieces such as hardware, lighting and frames, collected rather than posted.

Replating Beats Replacing on Almost Every Piece
The usual alternative to replating is buying a replacement, which costs more and loses whatever made the original worth keeping. Wokingham work is mostly pieces that are structurally fine and cosmetically tired: worn rings, dulled watch cases, hardware that has lost its colour. All of that responds well to preparation and a fresh gold layer.
Gold plating questions, answered.
Everything you need to know about gold plating, including costs, durability, processes, and what to expect. These answers are based on real industry standards to help you make confident decisions before plating your items.
Where is your workshop?
Our workshop is at 14-40 Victoria Road, Aldershot GU11 1TQ, about 40 minutes from Wokingham. We serve Wokingham and the surrounding areas with insured collection and return, or insured next-day courier for smaller items.
Can several pieces be plated at once as a single job?
Yes, and it is usually the sensible way to do it. Items sent together are quoted as one job and plated in the same run, so the colour matches across all of them and there is one collection and one return rather than several.
Do you plate accessories such as pens, buckles and glasses frames?
Yes, subject to the base metal and any parts that cannot go into the tank. Frames with lenses, springs or plastic elements are dismantled or masked where possible, and where that is not possible we tell you. Send photographs and we will confirm before you post anything.
Is it worth replating an inexpensive piece?
Often, yes, and most often for fashion jewellery and accessories where the piece is fine but the finish has gone. We will say at quote stage if the cost of preparation makes replacement the more sensible option.
How long does gold plating last on a piece from Wokingham?
Our standard plating is around 2.5 microns, which is well above the 0.5 micron minimum for an item to be described as gold plated, and it will last years with reasonable care. Heavily handled items such as rings wear faster than display pieces, and all our work carries a two-year warranty.
Wokingham and Winnersh businesses use us for batch plating and branded finishing, with the same finish specification held on file so repeat orders match the original run exactly.
