What the buildings in Pacific Heights are like
Grand Victorians, Edwardians and pre-war apartment buildings with high ceilings, deep crown mouldings, panelled doors and original hardware. Walls are plaster on lath, often over three coats, which is unforgiving of the wrong fixing.
Repairs we are called out for most in Pacific Heights
- Hanging heavy artwork and mirrors on original plaster without cracking it
- Damaged crown moulding and picture rail that needs profile matching
- Original door hardware that binds, rattles or no longer latches
- Tall sash windows that are heavy, stiff and out of balance

Questions from Pacific Heights customers
Will hanging heavy art damage the original plaster?
Not if it is done properly. We locate studs, use the picture rail where one exists, and pilot-drill rather than hammer. For very heavy pieces we spread the load across two fixings so nothing is carried on a single point in the plaster.
Can you match an original moulding profile?
For common Victorian and Edwardian profiles, usually yes, either with stock trim or by building the profile up in sections. We will show you the match before it is installed and painted.
