He has also been involved in the preparation of reports and surveys regarding the conservation and restoration of historic plasterwork in listed and historic buildings. Sean Wheatley gives demonstrations and teaching sessions on RICS/SPAB courses and is committed to passing on his knowledge; he has now put five apprentices through college – two of whom still work with him. Sean Wheatley and his team were winners of the FPDC Plasterers Award for Internal Plasterwork 2013 for the work carried out following the devastating fire in Dartmouth, and again in 2014 for the restoration of a Grade I listed Devon manor house. Plaster Restorations can sympathetically reproduce original plasterwork, either by hand-crafted manufacture or working purely in-situ. We’ve also developed a unique and cost-effective system for re-securing loose ornamental ceilings back to their original fixings, which retains the original plasterwork while maintaining the historic integrity of the building. Plaster Restorations can provide surveys and budgets and welcomes the opportunity of visiting your offices or projects to discuss our system in more detail.
