Location: Plymouth
Work involved: Restoration of exterior and interior mouldings.

Maristow House, on the edge of Plymouth, is an exceptionally fine period example of predominantly Georgian architecture, throughout both the exterior and interior. The main building and the various wings were severely damaged by fire and suffered from subsequent water damage. For the rebuilding, the structure was divided into units. These were then restored with great fidelity by reproducing the mouldings from the salvaged remains.

The entrance hall (pictured top) boasts a ceilings with gorgeously decorative cornices. As well as moulding on the semi-circular archways of great elegance and style.

Recreating an authentic replica of original style with modern techniques ensures that the restoration work will last as long as the original.

Some parts of the house contained a beautifully elaborate barrel-style ceiling with mouldings placed in a symmetrical layout classic of the period.
