Plaster Coving Repairs
Traditional plaster coving can become brittle and damaged over time. We repair cracks, holes, chips and loose sections using specialist plaster restoration techniques. Every repair is carefully blended into the existing surface for a smooth and professional finish.
Ceiling and Cornice Restoration
Decorative cornices and ornate ceiling mouldings require specialist care. Our craftsmen restore intricate details while preserving the original design and character of the property.
Water Damaged Coving Repairs

Where sections are beyond repair, we can create and install matching replacement pieces. We carefully reproduce existing patterns and profiles to ensure consistency throughout the room.
