Ornamental Plastering

Matching Existing Cornice & Decorative Plaster Repairs

Heritage Plastercraft specialises in ornamental plastering, providing expert restoration and repair of decorative plaster features in period and heritage properties.
With over 40 years of experience in traditional plasterwork, we carefully restore and match existing cornice, along with original architectural details such as mouldings and decorative ceiling features, ensuring they blend seamlessly with the existing structure.
Our goal is always to preserve the character and craftsmanship of historic buildings while delivering high-quality, long-lasting plaster repairs.

Matching Existing Cornice & Restoration

Many older properties contain decorative plaster cornices that can become damaged over time due to structural movement, water damage, or previous repairs.
We specialise in matching existing cornice, recreating missing or damaged sections using traditional moulding techniques so that the restored plasterwork is visually identical to the original.
We also maintain an extensive range of stock moulds, allowing us to accurately replicate a wide variety of traditional designs.

Our cornice services include:
• Matching existing cornice
• Cornice repair and restoration
• Decorative plaster mouldings
• Ceiling rose repairs
• Restoration of damaged plaster details

Each piece is carefully crafted to maintain the authentic appearance of the original plasterwork.

Decorative Plaster Repairs

Decorative plaster features are often an important part of a building’s architectural character.
Heritage Plastercraft provides specialist decorative plaster repairs for period homes, heritage buildings, and conservation properties.
Using traditional plastering methods, we repair cracks, damaged mouldings, and missing decorative elements while preserving the integrity of the original design.
Our ornamental plastering work is suitable for:
• Georgian and Victorian properties
• Listed buildings
• Conservation area homes
• Period property renovations
• Architectural restoration projects
• Historical Builidigs

Traditional Plastering Techniques

At Heritage Plastercraft we use traditional plastering techniques and materials to ensure the highest quality results.

Hand-crafted moulds are used to reproduce decorative features accurately, allowing new plasterwork to blend perfectly with the surrounding structure.

This traditional approach is particularly important when working on historic buildings, where modern materials may not be suitable.
