Yes, absolutely. Over the past 30 years, we've successfully repaired a wide range of intricate cornice designs, always finding a solution for even the most complex cases. If you’d like to know how much it would cost to repair your cornice, feel free to contact us.

Yes, a plasterer can work on cornices, but many do not specialise in detailed cornice decorations. At Decorative Plaster, we specialise in handling complex cornice designs, including those made up of multiple elements. Contact us to learn more about how we can help with your project.

Typically, we remove a one-metre section of the damaged cornice and restore it. After restoration, we create a template and a silicone mould to replicate the necessary lengths needed to replace the damaged area in your property.

Yes, cracks in cornices can occur due to vibrations within the property. While it’s relatively simple to repair these cracks, it’s important to note that the repair does not guarantee that new cracks won’t appear in the future.

The method for repairing cornice gaps depends on the size of the gap and the complexity of the cornice decoration. For detailed cornices with gaps larger than 30cm, we typically need to take a sample, create a silicone mould, and fabricate the necessary lengths to fill the gap.

To prevent your cornice from cracking, it’s crucial to identify and eliminate the source of vibrations causing the damage. Once the vibrations are stopped, the cornice can be repaired. After the repair, it’s advisable to monitor the ceiling and cornice for any further changes to ensure the issue is fully resolved.
