Plating Company Near Seal Beach

A small beach town with a big retirement community.

Seal Beach keeps a small town feel, with a walkable Main Street running down to its pier and Old Town cottages on narrow streets near the sand. Leisure World, one of the largest retirement communities in the region, sits inland, and a large Naval weapons station takes up much of the city's land. Salt air is constant near the water.

Seal Beach orders travel to us by ground and usually take one business day. Your phone pictures are enough for us to quote in writing. Every piece is stripped, plated and inspected, then sent back insured.

Old Town homeowners send porch lights, door hardware and outdoor showers. Main Street shops and restaurants send signs, rails and fixtures. Leisure World residents send lamps, faucets and keepsakes, and boat owners from nearby harbors send cleats and fittings.

Metal Plating Near Seal Beach

Old Town cottages, Main Street cafes and Leisure World living rooms.

Old Town cottages near the pier have small front porches, mail slots, house numbers and outdoor showers that the sea air pits fast. We strip and replate them in nickel and chrome, or sealed brass for a classic beach look. Main Street shops send signs and fixtures in the winter before the busy season.

Leisure World residents often send treasured pieces: a lamp, a silver tea set, a pair of brass candlesticks. We restore them carefully and recommend the gentlest approach when it makes sense. Boat owners from Alamitos Bay and nearby harbors send cleats and rail fittings.

    Yes. Silver plated tea sets are stripped of worn plating, polished and replated in bright, satin or antique silver, food safe for serving. Solid sterling usually only needs a careful polish. If packing feels like a chore, a local pack and ship counter can wrap it and send it insured.

    Nickel and chrome are the toughest near the ocean. Sealed brass works too with a little more care. Rinse with fresh water every week or two.

    Many do. It's the quiet season, and pieces come back before summer crowds. Rails and sign brackets are the usual first round.

    Yes. We strip, copper fill salt pits and plate nickel and chrome on bronze and brass cleats. Small and medium cleats fit in a regular parcel box.

    Yes. Brass shower heads and valves are stripped and replated. Remove cartridges and washers first. Most of them come back looking new.

    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.
