Designing Bespoke Plaster Ceilings
Bespoke Plaster Ceilings
Stevensons have designed and installed bespoke plaster ceilings within public and private properties across the world, spanning a wide range of ceiling types and styles. From panel ceilings, to domed and vaulted ceilings, our team can help design your bespoke plaster ceiling, using existing enrichments or developing brand new designs.
Designing a bespoke ceiling
EXPERIENCED CEILING DESIGNERS
Our bespoke ceiling design service covers all styles of decorative plaster ceiling, including simple and decorative panel ceilings, domed ceilings, vaulted ceilings and coffered ceilings. Depending on the suitability of the design, we can manufacture ceilings in a choice of plaster types, including fibrous plaster, traditional lime plaster and GRP.
Whether creating a completely bespoke plaster ceiling or utilising an existing design, we will complete an on-site survey to ascertain key dimensions and identify fixing points, which could affect the design and installation. This information will help to evolve your design, and allow for an accurate plan to be developed.
Producing a bespoke plaster ceiling
Production and Installation
Depending on the type of ceiling required, manufacture will either take place in our factory or on-site – for a fibrous plaster, GRP or Stevensons-Stone® ceiling, a mould will be created and the ceiling manufactured in panels and individual enrichments, while a lime plaster ceiling will be created in situ. Once the base structure is complete, our team of craftsmen seamlessly add any additional plaster enrichments onto the ceiling.

Grantham, UK
Stoke Rochford Hall
Plaster Ceiling Reproduction
After a fire seriously damaged the property in 2006, Stevensons of Norwich worked to reinstate the plasterwork within Stoke Rochford Hall which had been destroyed by the fire across four major rooms The Grand Hall, The Library, The Tudor Room and the Rochford Room.
Using surviving fragments from the fire and historic plans, Stevensons designers crafted detailed moulds to restore the 1841 built building back to its original Gothic style. The destroyed lime plasterwork was replaced with fibrous plaster casts of the reconstructed designs, with the wall plaster also reinstated using traditional methods.
This faithful reproduction of the lost plasterwork within Stoke Rochford Hall earned Stevensons of Norwich the prestigious Plaisterers Trophy in 2008 for outstanding works both off and on site, with the Judges commenting that it would be a disservice to all the craftsmen and apprentices involved not to honour this project with an award.

Bespoke Decorative Plasterwork
We were delighted to be involved in this interesting project, working with a leading traditional architect to produce detailed bespoke decorative plasterwork as per their designs.
Stevensons handmade and installed two guilloche patterned coffered ceilings, bespoke fluted Corinthian pilasters and a large decorative classical overdoor. The patterns for the bespoke works were all created by our in-house sculptors before we created the new moulds and commenced the casting.
Throughout the property, our National Trust Georgian cornices were specified and along with the bespoke items, installed by our experienced team.
