Chrome and Nickel Plating for Page

A young town built for a dam.

Page did not exist until 1957, when it was founded to house the workers building Glen Canyon Dam. The lake that filled behind the dam made it a boating center. Houseboats, tour boats and a constant flow of visitors headed for the canyons and the famous bend in the river.

Page is remote even by Arizona standards, so nearly everything specialized is done by mail. Photograph the hardware and email us. A written quote comes back. Ground service usually takes one to two business days, though we suggest allowing a little extra from this far north. Returns are insured.

Houseboat owners, many of whom share a boat with other families, write about rails, cleats and galley fixtures. Marina and tour companies ask about fleets of small parts. Motels and restaurants ask about fixtures and outdoor furniture.

What We Do

Plating Services in Page

Page is boat country: boat and yacht parts and chrome plating lead, followed by powder coating for deck furniture, metal polishing, and nickel plating for galley and bath fixtures.

Chrome, Nickel and Brass Plating in Page

Deck rails, galley faucets and tour boat cleats.

A houseboat has a house worth of fixtures and a boat worth of hardware. Faucets, cabinet pulls, rail fittings, ladder parts, cleats. Sun reflects off the water and the canyon walls, and metal runs hot for months. We strip the old finish, repair pitting with copper and rebuild nickel and chrome.

Fleet operators think in schedules. Parts come off when boats are winterized and need to be back before spring launches. With 3 to 5 weeks of standard turnaround, late fall shipments fit that calendar well. We label and return parts by boat when you tag them.

    03

    Insure and send the tracking

    Ship with any carrier, insure the box for what the parts are worth to you, and email us the tracking number so we know it is on the way.

    We send photos when the work is done. Once you approve and pay, your parts go back to you packed the same careful way.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Houseboat owners and operators in Page ask these.

    Get a free quote

    Yes. Share groups often send everything together. Tag each owner's parts or simply list the whole boat. We quote it on one document, and you can divide the cost among yourselves.

    Most metal fittings: cleats, rail bases and ends, ladder hardware, faucets, pulls and trim made of brass, bronze, stainless, steel or pot metal. Plastic parts with a chrome look cannot be plated in our process.

    Yes. Tag each boat's parts and include a list. We keep the groups separate, quote them clearly and return them packed by boat so reinstalling goes quickly. Photos of each group before you pack them help us confirm the counts on arrival.

    Heat by itself does not harm real chrome. Thin plating fails where it was weak from the start. A proper copper, nickel and chrome build, kept clean of mineral spots, lasts many seasons.

    We do. Frames are stripped, blasted, pretreated and powder coated in the color you pick. Remove slings and cushions first. Furniture is bulky, so ask about shipping before you send it.

    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.
