Hayles and Howe Highly Commended by the FPDC
 
We are delighted to receive a Highly Commended Award from the FPDC for our work at Greenway House in Devon. The work included internal stabilization of ceilings and cornices and externally replacing failed render, the façade required considerable repairs to bring back the sharpness of the original scheme.
Scagliola Table Top
The design for this table top was based on a scagliola altar front in a church in Gottro, a small town above Lake Como in Italy. Our intention, and that of the original maker, was to imitate inlaid marble work (Pietra Dura), rather than to create an accurate pictorial representation.
Our aim is to preserve and further the ancient crafts, particularly but not exclusively plasterwork and scagliola, in the firm belief that everyone-client, worker, the general public and our descendants all benefit.
We will achieve this by:
- Pursuing projects of historical significance to learn from the masters.
- Pursuing work in public buildings and Theatres to contribute to peoples enjoyment.
- Pursuing new and restoration work in homes great and modest, to provide greater beauty in everyday life.
If you need any advice or guidance in choosing from our Online shop or the catalogue, or if what you require is not shown and could be custom-made, we would be delighted to hear from you.
Please call us should you require further information on any of our services.
Our award winning company has expanded and developed over the last thirty years creating a wide range of skills whilst ensuring and maintaining high standards of quality in both traditional fibrous plaster and specialist Scagliola |
