Dudley Coving Installation (DY1): The traditional way to soften the harsh lines between ceilings and walls is by the fitting of coving and decorative mouldings. Whether the use of coving is in or out of fashion nowadays is hard to figure as it seems to come in and out of favour, however it is still used to embellish many a home in Dudley. To fit or not to fit coving, that is the question, and this of course should be entirely down to personal preference and not down to the current fashion. You have a simple choice to make, should you opt for smooth, classic transitions or sharp, contemporary lines?
What is Coving? - Coving is an architectural element, signifying the curved, concave material which is used to soften and hide the angles where walls meet ceilings within a building. Materials such as plastic, PVC, high-density polystyrene, polyurethane, plaster, MDF, duropolymer, timber and gyproc are used to make decorative mouldings and coving.

Deciding on materials is just the start of it, next you will need to pick a shape from options like cyma reversa (or ogee), Victorian, egg and dart, cavetto, step, Edwardian, ovolo, cyma recta, art deco and dentil.
With such a lot of choices to be made, you might be thinking this process may get a bit tricky. You need to ask the advice of an experienced Dudley coving fitter, who'll suggest the best options for your situation. Getting a top quality coved finish on your home in Dudley is your primary goal, and following the tricks and tips on this site should help you on that path.
It's not only with new coving installations that a specialist can help you with. Repairs and restorations are also within their remit. If the installation of coving and decorative mouldings is carried out properly, they should survive unscathed for many years, though from time to time repairs may be required. Maintenance could be needed on dado corners, fire surrounds, corbels, dado rails, cornices, ceiling roses, picture rails, plaques, panel mouldings or coving.

Plasterers are the tradesmen who generally carry out coving work, although there are specialist coving installers in Dudley as well. When timber coving is needed, a joiner may also be employed.
