Plating Company Near Yucca Valley
The Morongo Basin near Joshua Tree's west entrance.
Yucca Valley is the largest town in the Morongo Basin, just west of Joshua Tree National Park. It has become a magnet for artists, designers and vacation rental owners who restore old desert cabins and mid century homes. Ranch lots spread across the basin, and the high desert brings hot days, freezing winter nights and strong wind.
Rental hosts and artists here usually email us a batch of phone photos, often of pieces pulled out of a cabin they just bought. We quote from those, the box travels down the Morongo Valley and over to Oceanside in a day or two, and the finished hardware returns insured in time for the next guest.
Artists send metal sculpture and found object pieces for patinas. Vacation rental owners send cabin hardware, outdoor showers and lighting. Ranch owners send gates and barn hardware, and shops on Twentynine Palms Highway send signs and fixtures.

View ServiceChrome, Nickel and Brass Plating in Yucca Valley
Restored cabins, artist yards and highway storefronts.
Vacation rental owners in Yucca Valley restore old homestead cabins and mid century houses, and they want hardware with character: matte black door sets, brass outdoor showers, vintage style lighting. We refinish what they find in the cabins instead of replacing it, which keeps the desert look guests come for.
Design minded owners furnish their rentals with mid century chairs, tables and lamps found at desert estate sales, and the chrome and brass on them is often pitted. We replate those parts so the furniture looks the way it did in 1960. Shops along Twentynine Palms Highway send signs, and ranch owners send gate hardware.

Plating Questions from Yucca Valley
Frequently Asked Questions
Yucca Valley rental owners and artists usually ask these.
Yes. Old cabin door hardware, hinges and stove parts are usually steel, iron or brass, and they come back beautifully. We can finish them in matte black, oil rubbed bronze or polished brass depending on your design. Send photos of each piece and tell us your next booking dates, and we'll plan the timing.
Yes. The faucets, spouts and valves that feed outdoor stock tank tubs are usually brass, and they come back in chrome, nickel or polished brass. Desert water is hard, so we suggest guests dry them, or you choose a finish like brushed nickel that hides spots.
Yes. Drawer pulls, chair legs, table bases and lamp parts from mid century pieces are stripped and plated in chrome, brass or black nickel. Guests notice those details, and refinishing costs far less than tracking down original replacements.
Yes. We strip rust and powder coat hinges and latches. Long gates need freight. Wind and sand strip paint fast up here.
Metal signs and brackets often can. We strip and refinish them in powder coat or a patina. Painted lettering needs special care, so photos of both sides help us plan.
Send us a few photos of the part from different angles, along with what it is and the finish you want. We look them over and send a written quote, usually within 24 business hours. It's free, and you're under no obligation to go ahead.
Standard orders take 3 to 5 weeks from the day your parts arrive. If you're on a deadline, ask about expedited service. When the schedule allows, we can finish in 5 to 7 business days.
Yes. Our workmanship is covered for 12 months. If something isn't right with the finish we put on, call us and we'll make it right.
