Restoration of existing pieces:
Arkahdia Arts specializes in saving art from either the elements or simply the ravage of time. If you have a piece that needs repair, we'd be glad to take a look at your item and offer our expert opinion of what needs to be done.
On site waste molds for duplication
Many situations occur where pieces need to be duplicated or repaired but can't be sent to our facilities (especially architectural renovations and restoration projects). In these situations we can have our personnel come to your location and make a quick mold of its place. This allows us to then take the mold back to our office, create a duplicate and then work from there.
Off site mold making for production
Whether you've sent us a piece, commissioned one from us or we have gone out into the field and made a waste mold from something at your site, we create molds all the time that literally can have 1000s of copies made from one master mold and can last for decades.

Modification of existing pieces:
As with restoring existing artwork, our artisans are able to modify current pieces to create a new look or piece of artwork all together.

Creation of new works of art:
If you can imagine it, we'll work alongside you to make your dreams become reality!

Handcrafted designer finishes:
Each of our beautiful handcrafted finishes are painstakingly applied by our talented staff of artists. We have over 150 finishes to choose from, but if that's still not enough, we can create custom finishes as well! All of the products can come especially weatherproofed to provide safe indoor and outdoor use.

Custom matching of finishes:
Looking for a color that isn't in our designer finish book? Not to worry, our talented artists are able to create custom finishes to match and blend with any décor. Give us the color you want to duplicate and we'll make it so!

Casting to fit your project goals
Whether it's portable fountains on wheels, a pair of Giant Foo Dogs reinforced for high traffic and the elements, casting in foam with an Aqua-Resin coating to make a light weight column.or need statues thin cast in plaster that can easily be smashed. Call us to discuss your needs and we can help you achieve your goal.
Working with multiple materials
Although we normally cast using a high-grade artist plaster called Hydrostone, we are not limited by it. We work with the following mediums: GFRC, Aqua Resin, Crystal Clear, with or without pigments, Aqua-Resin Coating, Foam Filling, Marble Dust, Metal Powders and even in rubber.
Large scale manufacture:
Need 1,000 statues in a hurry? Not a problem, our master casters are up for any challenge put before them. We have two facilities, coast-to-coast, to get the job done on time!
|  |
Expedited shipping:
Our normal quick turn around time is less than four weeks! For additional fees, we can cast and ship in as little as a week if needed.
What's you project? We'd love to hear from you!
