Pressed metal ceiling restoration scope

Sydney Pressed Metal restored the original pressed-metal ceilings across the ground and first floors of the heritage-listed building at 25 King Street, Sydney. The 1891 building was formerly the City Bank of Sydney and Post Office.

Existing panels were removed and assessed, with damaged sections repaired or replaced by reproduced panels. New panels were pressed to match the original profiles and integrated with the retained ceiling work.
