Lath Restoration

Any restoration work required on a lath and lime plaster wall or ceiling will be done in situ by our team of experienced plasterers, replacing any failing laths, and restoring the surface using traditional lime plaster techniques, providing a natural look to the repaired surface.

Russian Orthodox Cathedral, Knightsbridge

Lath and Lime Plaster Restoration

During a major refurbishment of the Knightsbridge Russian Orthodox Cathedral, the contractor identified that the traditional lime plaster ceilings and walls were in need of potential repair. Stevensons of Norwich were invited to complete a thorough plaster survey of the building so that the refurbishment could resume.

As a result of the survey, Stevensons identified structural issues, and confirmed that significant repairs were needed. The contractor appointed Stevensons to complete these repairs, which involved in situ lath and plaster surface integrity repairs and reinforcement of the fixing structure.

Manchester City Art Gallery

Lime Coffered Ceiling Restoration

During an extension project to the Manchester City Art Gallery, the nearby Athenaeum building was incorporated into the site. Stevensons were invited to undertake repair work on the lime plaster ceiling in the Athenaeum, as well as complete plasterwork repairs within the existing gallery itself.

A key part of this project was to maintain consistency between any repairs and the existing ceiling – particular focus was given to the composition of the lime mix to match the existing Athenaeum coffered ceiling.

Where possible, replacement was avoided, however deterioration had occurred and some decorative elements had been destroyed, which required our craftsmen to cast brand new enrichments for the historic ceiling. The surviving sections were re-secured, and the new sections attached seamlessly, preserving the look of the building.
