Plaster Coving Thorpe St Andrew

Plaster coving is a traditional method of decorative moulding. It requires two people with experience and a high level of skill to install it properly. Plaster coving is one of the oldest ways to decorate walls in Thorpe St Andrew. It is made from lime and gypsum that are consolidated with hessian fibre. Once dried, this material hardens into a smooth, solid stone. This material is often used to install ceiling roses and coving.

Before installing plaster coving, plan and mark its layout. The length of each piece should match the length of the adjacent wall or ceiling. The length of the coving should be as accurate as possible, and each piece should be level. You can then trim the pieces to eliminate gaps. Then, apply a thin layer of adhesive to the join where one piece of coving meets the next. This will ensure a strong bond and prevent cracks from appearing in the future.

Plaster coving can be used to add aesthetic appeal to corners and the join between the ceiling and wall. It is lightweight and easy to install and is an effective way to hide the thermal expansion of plasterboard. It is also an attractive way to add resale value to a home in Thorpe St Andrew.
