Chrome, Nickel and Brass Plating in Canyon Lake

A gated town built around the water.

Canyon Lake is a gated, private community built around a reservoir, and it's one of the few cities in California where almost everyone has a reason to own a boat. Lakefront homes have their own docks, golf carts are a common way to get around, and the community runs its own lodge, beaches and marina. Summers are hot and the sun is strong on the water.

Since the gate keeps the town private, nearly everything we do for Canyon Lake happens by mail. Residents email us photos from the dock, we reply with a written price, and the parcel travels down the 15 to us in about a day. Finished hardware comes back insured, ready to bolt on before the weekend.

Boat owners send cleats, rails, ladders, ski tow fittings and steering wheels. Lakefront homeowners send dock hardware, outdoor lights and railings. Community facilities send clubhouse fixtures and beach hardware, and residents send golf cart trim and home fixtures.

What We Do

Plating Services in Canyon Lake

Canyon Lake mostly asks for boat and yacht parts work, chrome plating and nickel plating, with powder coating for docks and railings.

Plating and Polishing for Canyon Lake

Private docks, the lodge and golf cart garages.

Docks behind homes mean Canyon Lake residents handle their own hardware, and most of it lives in the sun all summer. Ski tow pylons, swim ladders, cleats and steering wheels come to us dull and spotted. Because the reservoir is calm freshwater, pitting is rare, so a strip, polish and fresh nickel and chrome layer usually does the job.

Lakefront homes send dock lights, deck railings and gate hardware for powder coat or plating. The community's lodge and beaches send fixtures and railings in rounds. Residents also send golf cart trim, grab handles and accessory racks for chrome or black finishes.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Canyon Lake boat owners and residents ask these often.

    Yes. Stainless ladders can be polished, and brass or bronze fittings are stripped, polished and plated nickel and chrome. Freshwater hardware usually needs much less repair than ocean pieces, which keeps the cost reasonable. Tell us how each part mounts so we protect any threads.

    Yes, if they're metal. Grab handles, rear seat rails and accessory racks are stripped and replated in chrome, or powder coated black for a modern look. Plastic trim can't be plated. Unbolt the metal pieces, bag the hardware, and send photos so we can quote.

    Yes. Beach railings, lodge door hardware and pool fixtures can go out one area at a time, so residents always have access. We label everything by location and keep the finish on file so later rounds match.

    Not special, but tough. Nickel and chrome or powder coat stand up to sun and splash. A quick rinse after windy days, when lake spray reaches the deck, keeps minerals from building up.

    After a day out, give cleats, rails and ladders a quick rinse with a hose and wipe them dry. Lake minerals left to dry cause most spots. A coat of marine wax every few months adds protection without hurting the plating.

    Not at all. Most of what comes through our door is home and business hardware: faucets, light fixtures, door handles, cabinet pulls, railings and decorative pieces. We also work for hotels, restaurants, boat owners and manufacturers.

    Tell us what the part is, roughly how big it is, how many pieces you have and the finish you're after. If you know the metal, mention it. If not, that's fine. We can usually tell from the photos.

    Every part is quoted on its own. The biggest factors are condition, the base metal, size and shape, the finish you choose and how many pieces you send. A part with deep pits or broken spots takes more work before it can be plated.
