Applying and repairing plaster is an ancient construction technique and an art form that requires extensive training and attention to detail. Greg Colina, the owner of Old World Plastering in Cincinnati, is known throughout the region for the reliably high quality of his work, which combines age-old techniques with the latest in modern technology. This is especially important in historic preservation projects, such as the repairs Mr. Colina recently made to the First Baptist Church in Madison, Indiana.

This beautiful structure, originally constructed for the First Baptist congregation in 1860, has undergone continual expansion and renovation throughout the years. The original Greek Revival design has always been a major feature of this historic building, including intricate recessed panels and ornamental design work on the interior of the building. Recently, the original plaster suffered serious water damage, which completely destroyed several key design and architectural features.

Drawing on his deep experience and deep appreciation of the plastering arts, Mr. Colina was able to provide incredibly accurate repair services, reversing the water damage and completely restoring the area to its former glory. Without the aid of a skilled craftsman with an in-depth understanding of the proper application, many of the most unique features of historic buildings are lost in restoration attempts, but Mr. Colina has the background and passion to bring any design back to life.
