Common Causes of Coving Damage
Coving can become damaged for a variety of reasons. Identifying the cause of the problem helps ensure the repair lasts for many years.
Common causes of plaster coving damage include:
Structural movement
Small shifts in a building can cause hairline cracks to appear along coving joins.
Water damage
Leaks from roofs or plumbing can weaken plaster and cause sections to crumble.
Age and deterioration
Older plaster coving may naturally degrade over time.
Poor installation
Improperly installed coving may detach from walls or ceilings.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is plaster coving?
Plaster coving is a decorative moulding installed where the wall meets the ceiling. It softens the angle between surfaces and adds an elegant architectural detail to a room.

The cost of coving repair depends on the size of the damage, the design of the moulding and how much restoration is required. Small repairs are generally inexpensive, while complex decorative restoration may require more time and craftsmanship.
Can missing sections of plaster coving be replaced?
Yes. Skilled plaster specialists can recreate missing sections by matching the existing moulding pattern and installing a replacement that blends perfectly with the surrounding coving.
