Coving Fitters Paisley

What is Coving? - Coving is an architectural term, signifying the concave, curved material that is used to ameliorate and hide the angles where walls meet ceilings within a building. Materials from which coving are manufactured include the likes of MDF, plaster, timber, hardened polyurethane, plastic, expanded polystyrene, extruded PVC, duropolymer and gyproc.

All these materials and a fab variety of designs and shapes as well, like cyma reversa (or ogee), step, Victorian, egg and dart, dentil, Edwardian, art deco, cyma recta, ovolo and cavetto.

Coving is a small but impactful touch that can add a finishing flourish to any room's interior design. By softening the transition between walls and ceilings, coving can add a touch of sophistication to your home's look. The abundance of patterns and materials available for coving can make choosing the right one for your property a daunting task. The decor of your home and your personal preferences should be considered when choosing the perfect coving. A high standard of installation is required for coving to achieve the best possible results.

What is the Difference Between Cornice & Coving?

A question that we are regularly asked by bewildered property owners in Paisley, is "What on earth is the difference between cornice and coving?" The answer to this question is that they're basically the same thing. If you had to highlight a distinction between the two, it would be that covings are relatively simple in their design, while cornices are far more fancy. In Paisley in the post-world war period, the expression coving was originally used to describe a basic "C" shaped concave moulding that was extremely popular at the time. In contrast, cornices are often exceptionally elaborate mouldings, which are hard to install and require the skills of a specialist craftsman in Paisley.
