Coving Fitters Walkden

What is Coving? - Coving, which is available in 2 or 3m lengths, is an ornamental moulding which is primarily used to conceal or cover the 90� angle where a wall meets a ceiling. A wide range of materials are used to manufacture fancy mouldings and coving and these include hardened polyurethane, plaster, duropolymer, plastic, gyproc, high-density polystyrene, MDF, extruded PVC and hardwood.

Shape and design is another choice you will have to make and among those available are dentil, cyma reversa (or ogee), Victorian, step, cyma recta, cavetto, Edwardian, egg and dart, art deco and ovolo.

Plaster Coving Walkden

Plaster coving is a traditional method of decorative moulding. It requires two people with experience and a high level of expertise to install it correctly. Plaster coving is one of the oldest ways to decorate walls in Walkden. 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 precise 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 in the future.

Plaster coving is a decorative element that is often overlooked by property owners in Walkden, but it can enhance a room's interior design by adding visual appeal. It can hide irregularities in the ceiling, and it can disguise the thermal expansion of plasterboard. Plaster coving can also add resale value to a property, since it highlights attention to detail.
