Frieze restoration
I have begun renovating my kitchen which has a very ornate plasterwork ceiling and a large medalion that thanks to a horrid electrician now sits shattered. I want to restore my cieling to its original glory but I am at a loss as to where to look for a restorer of plasterwork and mouldings. Any suggestions would be great.
Comments
I would start by looking for a replacement medallion:
Try a google search.

Felber Ornamental Plaster does a great line of medallions. We bought 3 from them a few years back. Google them. If you need a specialist restorer, they mention in the This Old House episode descriptions of the Prospect Heights renovation, a Red Hook-based plaster contractor called Stuart Sobczynski who is recreating mouldings for the house.

Kevin Perez did the on-site plaster work for the TOH house. He's awesome. Try to look him up or I'll post his number later when I can find it.

Ksquared, please do post Kevin Perez' contact information! Years ago, I had the most fantastic painter/plasterer do work in my house. His name was Kevin Perez. The contact number I used to have for him is no longer any good. If this is the same Kevin Perez I used to know, I would most definitely want to reconnect with him. His work is superb. Thanks!
