Chandler's Ford coving and cornice quote
The quote for coving and cornice in Chandler's Ford is fixed before the visit. Measuring the room, the fixing paste, the corner cuts and the seam filler are all included. Longer walls change the quote. A moulding that stands further out changes the quote. More corners in the room change the quote.
Included
- Measuring and marking the room
- Cutting mitres at internal and external corners
- Fixing with adhesive and filling every joint
- Cleaning off ready for paint
- A plain cove in a Fryern room is the quicker fit. A shaped cornice on those walls needs longer at the corners, and that time sits in the quote.
- A bay in Valley Park steps outward from the wall. The extra slanted cuts for that bay are included in the quote.
- Paint on the pieces is quoted on its own. A skim, meaning a thin coat of finishing plaster, is quoted on its own. A moulding made very large for one room is quoted on its own.
- The Chandler's Ford fitting starts on time. The price named for the room before cutting begins stays the price of the work.

What happens on the day
On a coving and cornice day in Chandler's Ford the work follows a set order. Coving is the plain curved piece where the wall meets the ceiling. Cornice is the deeper piece with moulding on the face. We check the ceiling, mark one height, cut and fix the pieces, then close the seams and wipe them.
- Sound plaster before Hiltingbury covingHiltingbury coving needs ceiling plaster that still holds. We look at that plaster before a saw touches a piece. An older ceiling is used when the face still grips. A ceiling plastered a short time ago is used after that same look. Skimming means a thin coat of finishing plaster. When that coat is going on the same day, the pieces are fixed while it is laid. The flat ceiling and the edge above the wall then come out of that same work.
- Height marks for Valley Park covingValley Park pieces keep one height from the first wall to the last. We put the mark on the walls before any piece is stuck. A matching mark goes on the ceiling so both marks agree. Those marks stop one wall ending higher than another. Where a bay window pushes the wall outward, the marks carry on at the same height. Moulded cornice in that room follows the marks already set for a plain cove.
- Corner cuts for Fryern covingFryern corners are sawn before the pieces are bedded. The slanted end is a mitre, which lets two faces shut tight. We cut that slant where the walls fold inward. We cut it again where a corner turns outward. Adhesive is the paste on the back of each piece. That paste sticks the piece to the plaster at the top of the wall and to the ceiling. A bay adds turns, and each new turn gets a mitre.
- Chandler's Ford seams ready for paintEach seam in the Chandler's Ford room is packed with filler until the ridge has gone. We wipe the pieces once the filler is in. The first seal is a mist coat. A mist coat is emulsion stirred with water. Room colour goes over that seal on a later visit. Painting the pieces sits outside this fitting. The tools go with us. The place is tidy when we go.
