Cornices and Coving Many rooms, particularly in period houses contain decorative plasterwork known as cornices and coving. There is usually some confusion between the terms, but cornices are the mouldings used to hide the line between the walls and ceiling, while coving is a generic term used for any kind of moulding. These features not only enhance the look of a room, but they also provide a useful means of hiding any visible joins or imperfections in the underlying plaster. Many modern buildings don't apply coving as new plasterwork ideally shouldn't contain any cracks or joins if it is applied correctly. It has fallen out of favour as a style in many contemporary rooms, but many people still choose to add it to their homes for a more traditional decorative look. Although in the past it was often made to order and crafted on site, coving today comes in a variety of pre-moulded shapes from simplistic concave forms to more elaborate Egg and Dart styles. Although relatively easy to fit, it is necessary to ensure all lengths are straight and positioned correctly or you could end up with a wonky looking ceiling. Plastering Wigan provide a full coving service and will fit your coving to the highest possible standards. If your house already has coving in place we can also renovate and repair any minor damage. Should you wish for a more modern style to your room we can also remove coving if it no longer fits in with your decor. We can also advise on the best styles and materials for your coving. Plaster Boarding Plaster boards are large panels of gypsum plaster pressed inbetween a facer and a backer. It has almost completely replaced the traditional lath and plaster method of finishing walls as it is much quicker and easier to install. It is also often used in renovation work as a useful way to hide damage or to straighten up a wonky wall. It doesn't give quite as perfect a finish as traditional plaster but it requires less skill and time and is often therefore cheaper to use. Much of the expertise of plaster boarding lies in the ability to accurately join each board to create a smooth seamless surface. The quality of the jointing will have the biggest impact on the overall standard of the finished job. This is a useful option for those on a tight budget or who are looking to do the work themselves. Plastering Wigan are happy to quote for both traditional plastering and plasterboard work and will advise on the best options available to you. Roughcasting / Pebbledash You might be more familiar with roughcasting under its common name of pebbledash. It is a coarse plaster render used on exterior walls consisting of a cement mixed with sand, gravel or pebbles to give a highly textured effect. It was extremely popular on houses in the 1970s and 80s and is generally thought to be outdated today, although like many styles from that period, it's making a comeback. It's a relatively cheap method of rendering and is durable and hard-wearing. Plastering Wigan can provide you with a full roughcasting service and also offer solutions for those wishing to get rid of pebbledash from their houses. We supply and install new textured wall coatings which can hide old and damaged pebbledash and replace it with a modern smooth finish.
