Specialists in Traditional Plaster Cornices
Many properties throughout Newcastle Upon Tyne feature original Victorian, Edwardian, Georgian and Art Deco plasterwork. These decorative features often require specialist restoration methods to preserve their historical character.
Our craftsmen are highly experienced in working with traditional lime and gypsum plaster systems. We can accurately reproduce intricate decorative details, ensuring repaired sections are virtually indistinguishable from the surrounding original cornice.
Whether you own a period townhouse in Jesmond, a Victorian terrace in Heaton or a listed building in the city centre, we have the expertise to restore your cornices to the highest standards.
Common Cornice Problems We Repair
Cornices can become damaged for a variety of reasons. Some of the most common issues we encounter include:
Cracks and Settlement Damage
Natural building movement can cause cracks to develop within the cornice or where the cornice meets the ceiling and walls. We carefully repair and reinforce affected areas to prevent future deterioration.
Water Damage
Leaks from roofs, plumbing systems or upper floors can weaken plaster cornices and cause staining, crumbling or complete section loss. We remove damaged material and recreate the affected areas using traditional restoration methods.
Missing Sections
Property renovations, rewiring, structural alterations and previous repair work can often result in sections of cornice being removed. We can reproduce missing sections using moulding techniques that match the original profile.
Impact Damage
Accidental knocks during refurbishment or moving furniture can chip or break decorative plasterwork. Our repair specialists can restore damaged areas with precision.
