Metal Finishing Services for Payson

Pines, elk and a very old rodeo.

Payson sits at about 5,000 feet in ponderosa pine country, just under the Mogollon Rim. It claims the oldest continuous rodeo in the world, held every August. Many Phoenix families keep cabins here to escape the heat, and retirees have settled in for the four mild seasons.

Payson has plenty of craftsmen but no plating tanks, so the mail fills the gap. Send photos of what you have. Our written quote comes back, usually within 24 business hours. Ground shipping usually takes one to two business days. We refinish, inspect and insure the return.

Cabin owners ask about chandeliers, sconces, fireplace tools and door hardware. Log home builders want hardware in bronze and copper tones. Rodeo families and collectors send buckles, spurs and trophies.

What We Do

Plating Services in Payson

Payson likes cabin finishes: copper plating, patinas in oil rubbed bronze and statuary brown, brass plating, home decor restoration, and silver plating or nickel plating for buckles and trophies.

Metal Restoration for Payson Homes and Businesses

Chandelier hardware and rodeo buckles.

Log homes and cabins look best with metal that feels warm. Copper trim on range hoods, bronze door sets, iron and brass lighting. We plate and tone these by hand and can match pieces you already own. Where a fixture mixes metal with antler or wood, send only the metal parts if they come apart.

Trophy buckles and spurs are another Payson favorite. Silver wears thin on the high points after years of use. We replate in bright or antique silver and can leave the engraving dark for contrast. Tell us whether the buckle will be worn or framed.

One Piece or a Thousand

Big order or a single knob, same care.

Homeowners send us one faucet. Companies in and out of state send production runs of hundreds or thousands of parts. Both get a written quote and the same inspection before anything ships back.

    Yes. We clean it, replate the worn silver and can finish it bright or antique. Gold accents can be redone in 24k gold. Tell us if stones or inlays are present, since those need protection.

    Copper, oil rubbed bronze, antique brass and darker browns all sit well against wood. We build these by hand and seal them. Send a photo of the room and we can suggest a direction.

    They can. Soot, heat and rust are normal for those pieces. We clean them to bare metal, repair what needs it and refinish in black, bronze, brass or copper tones.

    Late fall works well. Send the pieces when you close up, and with a 3 to 5 week turnaround they are ready long before spring. We can return them to your main home.

    They leave a film more than real damage. Wipe sealed finishes with mild soap and water and dry them. Skip solvents on lacquered pieces, because they can soften the clear coat.

    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.
