Trusted Metal Plating for Fayetteville

Craftsman porches and Dickson Street bars, plated and polished.

Fayetteville has an easy mix of old and new: Craftsman bungalows near Mount Sequoyah, historic homes around the downtown square and a lively Dickson Street full of bars and restaurants. All of them have metal that gets handled daily and wears fast.

That includes bar rails, door pulls, light fixtures and taps in restaurants and homes alike. Renovation projects near campus, and people dressing up Ozark cabins and lake houses, also bring us lamps, hardware and fireplace pieces they want back in good shape.

Honest advice comes first. We look at your photos, tell you if a piece is a good candidate and explain what the plating involves. Then you get a written quote with no obligation, so you can decide at your own speed.

What We Do

Plating Services in Fayetteville

Requests from Fayetteville lean toward chrome and nickel for bar and bath hardware, brass for lighting and fixtures, patinas for the rustic look many Ozark homes use, and powder coating for railings, furniture and outdoor pieces.

How DMC Serves Fayetteville Customers

Old Ozark hardware, made to be touched again.

Fixtures that look tired are often the best jobs. Solid brass, bronze or steel with a worn finish takes a new one beautifully once it is stripped, repaired and polished. A chandelier, a set of cabinet pulls or a foot rail can come back looking freshly made.

Arkansas humidity and spring storms wear on exposed metal. For porch lights, gate hardware and anything that sits outside, we talk through tougher choices. For pieces that stay indoors, we match the finish to the room.

    How Fayetteville Customers Ship Parts to Us

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What Fayetteville and Northwest Arkansas customers ask us.

    Yes. Foot rails, taps, door pulls and handrails are common jobs. We plate them in durable finishes that take daily wear, and a restaurant can send a full set together so every piece matches when it comes home.

    Take off glass, shades and bulbs, then wrap the arms and base separately. Use a sturdy box with a few inches of padding on every side. Mark which parts belong together, and insure the box for what it is worth.

    Yes. Oil rubbed bronze, antique brass and darker patinas are among our most requested finishes for Ozark style homes. Tell us the look and send a photo, and we suggest the finish and sealer that will keep it good.

    For small, light pieces air can save a few days, but ground is cheaper and fine for most work. The choice is yours, and our quote makes it easy to see how the shipping fits the plan.

    Photograph the box and the pieces right away and email us. We inspect every part before it goes out and pack carefully, but carrier damage happens. Insurance covers it, and we walk you through the claim.

    Yes, and most of our work starts that way. We strip the old plating down to the base metal, repair what needs repair, then plate it fresh. New plating over a failing layer never lasts, so we don't do it.

    We do. Along with single pieces for homeowners, we run batches of hundreds or thousands of parts for companies in California and other states. Send a photo of a sample, the quantity and the finish, and we'll quote the whole run.

    Steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, bronze, copper, pot metal and zamak. Some of them need extra prep so the plating bonds well, and we'll tell you up front if your part does.
