Looking for a reasonably priced reliable chrome plater that does decent work, any recommendations? Believe someone on the board mentioned an outfit in Texas.

I have been sending my chrome to a place in Canada for about 4 years. I used a few different shops in the US but I never found one that wasn't expensive and or not worth a damn. I got tired of getting shoddy work done and the place in Canada I use is not cheap but they do great work and stand behind it 100%. Chrome work can be sickeningly expensive. Sending chrome to Canada costs more to ship and get back because of tariffs. There is also a declared value section on the shipping form and the more valuable the parts are the more the tariff costs. It' a pain in the butt.
