Chrome and Nickel Plating for Spokane

Mansions, mills and a river through downtown.

Spokane is the hub of the Inland Northwest, built around the falls of the Spokane River. Mining and timber money left it with grand downtown buildings and the mansions of Browne's Addition and the South Hill. Today aerospace manufacturing is a growing part of the economy, and an Air Force base sits just west.

From Spokane, ground shipping to our shop usually takes two to four business days. Send photos or part drawings to start, and we reply with a written quote. Once your box arrives we strip, repair, plate and inspect. The return shipment is insured for the value of the work.

Owners of older homes ask about door hardware, radiators covers and light fixtures. Building owners and hotel managers ask about lobby brass. Aerospace shops ask about coatings for machined and formed parts.

What We Do

Plating Services in Spokane

Spokane mixes restoration and industry: vintage nickel plating, brass plating, copper plating and metal polishing for historic pieces, and electroless nickel plating or tumble finishes for suppliers.

Plating and Polishing for Spokane

Mansion door sets and machined brackets.

Houses from the 1890s and 1900s were fitted with heavy cast hardware. Bronze knobs, ornate hinges, nickel plated bath fixtures. Four real seasons have little effect indoors, so most of it is in fine shape under the tarnish and paint. We clean, repair and refinish it to suit the period.

Aerospace suppliers have different questions. How even is the coating? How do you handle a lot of two thousand? Electroless nickel gives uniform coverage, and we schedule large runs in batches with inspection along the way. We are also clear about what we do not certify.

    Plating Questions from Spokane

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Spokane homeowners and suppliers ask these.

    Yes. Stripping is done carefully so cast patterns stay sharp, and polishing is done by hand. Detail usually looks crisper afterward because decades of paint and grime are gone. Very fine castings are polished by hand rather than on a wheel, which protects the sharp lines.

    Small and medium grilles and covers, yes. They can be plated, given a patina or powder coated. Send measurements, since large pieces affect shipping more than plating. Painted grilles usually hide sound cast iron, and powder coating holds up best on them.

    We plate machined and formed parts in electroless nickel and other finishes. Send drawings and requirements, and we will tell you plainly what fits our shop. We never claim certifications we do not hold.

    In groups. We restore one set, return it, and take the next, so public areas stay complete. Every group is finished to the same standard. We photograph the first group as a reference so later phases match it exactly.

    About two to four business days each way by ground, on top of our 3 to 5 weeks in the shop. We give an honest estimate with each quote. Winter weather across the passes can add a day, so build in a little slack.

    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.
