Plaster Ceiling Repair
As part of a larger repair contract to the Bank of Scotlands building in Edinburgh, Stevensons undertook the repair and partial replacement of the stunning ceiling in the imposing Bryce Hall. A room the full height of the building, Bryce Hall had been converted over the years to include additional floors and dividing walls, destroying sections of the plasterwork in the process.
To identify the areas that were in need of repair, a survey was completed, before in situ repairs took place, along with reinforcement of the fixings. In total, approximately one third of the ceiling needed to be replaced, therefore new fibrous plaster panels were cast and installed to restore the ceiling to its former glory.
The Stevensons range of Art Deco plaster cornice and coving profiles was designed by architect Ben Pentreath. The Art Deco cornice range comprises 1930's inspired patterns including a range of stepped coving.
