Chrome and Nickel Plating for Pomona

Old Pomona has a lot of metal stories.

Pomona is one of the older cities in the valley east of Los Angeles. Lincoln Park and the streets near downtown are full of Victorian and Craftsman homes, and the arts and antiques scene downtown keeps vintage lamps and hardware moving. Cal Poly Pomona and the Fairplex grounds add their own steady needs.

Pomona parts reach our bench by ground in a business day, as a rule. A few photos let us price the job in writing. Approve it, pack the pieces, and ship. After stripping, plating and inspection, we send the order back insured.

Homeowners in Lincoln Park send door sets, mail slots and lighting. Antique dealers send lamps, candlesticks and silver. Manufacturers and shops in the industrial areas near the 60 and the 71 send production parts that need nickel, chrome or powder coating.

What We Do

Plating Services in Pomona

Pomona orders often include home decor restoration, nickel plating and copper plating, plus silver plating for antiques and powder coating for shop parts.

Metal Restoration for Pomona Homes and Businesses

Victorian parlors, antique rows and valley workshops.

Restoration is a big part of Pomona work. Victorian and Craftsman homes have ornate hinges, knobs and gas era fixtures, often painted over many times. We strip them carefully, repair what we can, and plate them in period finishes like polished nickel or antique copper.

Antique dealers downtown bring us lamps, candlesticks and serving pieces that need to look their best before a sale. On the industrial side, shops near the freeways send brackets, housings and fittings for nickel or powder coating, and we run them in batches.

    Pomona customers usually ship like this.

    01

    Get your quote first

    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.

    Why Pomona Sends Its Plating to DMC

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Pomona homeowners and dealers ask these most often.

    Yes. We take the fixture apart, strip the old finish and paint, repair small damage, and plate it in nickel, brass or copper. Wiring and glass come off first, and we return the metal parts ready for your electrician.

    It is a classic choice. Antique copper has a warm, darkened look that suits Craftsman homes. We seal it with clear lacquer so it keeps its tone instead of changing over time.

    Some do. Lamps, candlesticks and silver are the most common. We tell you honestly in the quote whether replating will help a piece or whether a gentle polish is the better call.

    Yes. When silver wears through, the base metal shows. We strip what is left, polish the piece, and plate it fresh in bright, satin or antique silver. Food safe silver is used on flatware and serving pieces.

    We do. Brackets, frames and housings are common. We strip, blast and pretreat the metal first, then coat it in the color and texture you choose.

    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.
