Ceiling & Plaster Coving

Finish the job with quality detail using our range of coving. Ideal for creating smooth, decorative transitions between walls and ceilings, coving adds a classic look while hiding uneven edges or cracks. Whether you’re restoring period features or giving a room a neat, finished feel, we’ve got the sizes and styles to suit both modern and traditional spaces.

Q: What types of coving do you offer?

A: We stock a selection of Gyproc coving suitable for both residential and commercial interiors.

• Gyproc Cove 100mm x 3m: Ideal for smaller rooms, offering a subtle decorative finish.

• Gyproc Cove 127mm x 3m and 3.6m: Suitable for larger rooms or those with higher ceilings, providing a more pronounced profile.

• Gyproc Cornice Moulding 135mm x 3m: Features an elegant 'S' profile, perfect for creating a classic finish in formal spaces.

All our coving products are lined with white paper for ease of decoration and conform to EN 14209 standards.

Q: What is the difference between coving and cornice?

A: Coving typically refers to a simple, concave moulding that bridges the wall-ceiling junction, while cornice refers to more decorative moulding. Our Gyproc Cornice Moulding 135mm x 3m offers a more ornate profile compared to standard coving options.

Q: How do I choose the right size coving for my room?

A: The size of coving should be proportional to the room's dimensions:

• 100mm: Suitable for rooms with standard ceiling heights and smaller spaces.

• 127mm: Ideal for medium to large rooms or those with higher ceilings.

• 135mm Cornice: Best suited for grand rooms or spaces requiring a formal finish.

Selecting the appropriate size ensures a balanced result, in proportion with the space.

Q: What adhesive should I use for installing coving?

A: We recommend using Gyproc Cove/Cornice Adhesive 5kg, specifically designed for fixing Gyproc Cove and Cornice products to plaster and plasterboards. This adhesive provides a strong bond and allows for adjustments during installation.

Q: Can I paint over the coving?

A: Yes, all our coving products come with a white paper lining, making them ready for painting. Ensure the surface is clean and dry before applying your chosen paint to achieve the best finish.

Q: Do you offer delivery for coving products?

A: Yes, we provide delivery services for all our coving products. Delivery options and timescales can be found online or by contacting your local JT Atkinson branch.
