Coving Fitters Leamington Spa

What is Coving? - Coving is a decorative, curved moulding material purchased in strip form, which is used to cover up the 90 degree surface angles between a room's walls and ceilings. Materials from which coving are made include wood, duropolymer, expanded polystyrene, polyurethane, plaster core, plastic, MDF, gyproc and PVC.

Deciding on materials is just the beginning, next you will need to decide on a shape from alternatives like ogee, cavetto, dentil, egg and dart, Victorian, step, Edwardian, art deco, ovolo and cyma recta.

If you already have coving or decorative mouldings in your home, you may be looking for a local Leamington Spa coving installation expert to repair or replace it.

This could include the refurbishment of dado corners, fire surrounds, cornices, dado rails, corbels, wall plaques, panel mouldings, picture rails, coving or ceiling roses.

Whilst coving work is regularly done by specialist coving installers in Leamington Spa, it is more frequently carried out by plasterers or joiners (in the case of wood mouldings). Making sure that anybody you hire is experienced at work like this is important. So as to get a high quality finish, the coving work must be done carefully and attentively since this is painstaking work.
