In the heart of downtown Morganton, Paradise Custom Stained Glass is busy renovating the interiors of a new studio and gallery. A key feature the Owners hoped to preserve was the original pressed tin ceiling. Fire-code-required separation from the residential space upstairs placed this ceiling in jeopardy. Utilizing the existing building code and working with engineers from FireFree Coatings we were able to find an intumescent coating and maintain the ceiling.
