Cornice - Including Ornate
Coving, cornice and other decorative mouldings can transform a home. The majority of coving has the beauty, surface texture and fine detail of plaster but is made from modern materials that are lightweight, pre-primed and not brittle. This makes them much easier and quicker to install and less prone to damage.
Architectural cornice styles have changed significantly through the ages. The ornate, classical styles of the Regency and Georgian era’s evolved through the Victorian period to the simple styling of the Edwardians and dramatic linear shapes of Art Deco. Contemporary ceiling coving tends to be even more linear, but no less dramatic for being so. This leaves you with a rich pool of architectural styles and profiles to select from. If you need any help in choosing the right style for you, please call us.

Cornice Advantages
Often overlooked until there are signs of damage or decolouration. Plaster cornice work can either hold the visual appeal of a room together or ruin an interior if left to deteriorate. Cornice designs are available in a variety of moulds and a variety of different eye-catching types. In addition to concealing cracks that can occur naturally where the floor meets the ceiling cornice, the design and layout can be either elaborate or simple.
The cornice’s curved nature also helps to illuminate the room, preventing light reflecting from globes and lamps from getting lost and creating shadows where the wall meets the ceiling. Our experience working for a number of professional and private clients has taught us that that interior space has its own personality and can greatly enhance the appeal of your property by incorporating it with our cornice.
