FAQs

What tools do I need to install the coving?

You will need a measuring tape, pencil, saw (or mitre box), adhesive, filler, sandpaper, and a damp cloth.

What type of adhesive should I use?

Use an adhesive specifically designed for polystyrene coving. This type of adhesive is readily available at most hardware stores.

Can I paint the coving?

Yes, the coving is paintable. Prime and paint it with a paint of your choice to match your room's decor.

How do I cut the coving for corners?

Use a mitre box to cut the coving at a 45-degree angle for a precise corner fit.

What if the coving doesn't perfectly meet at the corners?

Use a filler to fill any small gaps and then sand smooth. Repaint to blend the joint.

Is the coving suitable for bathrooms or kitchens?

While suitable for most interiors, avoid direct exposure to high moisture. Ensure adequate ventilation in bathrooms and kitchens.

Troubleshooting

Coving is not sticking to the wall.

Ensure the wall surface is clean and dry. Use a suitable adhesive specifically designed for polystyrene coving. Apply enough adhesive and press firmly.

Gaps are visible between the coving and the wall/ceiling.

Use a filler to fill the gaps and sand smooth after drying. Then, repaint to match.

Use a fine-toothed saw or a mitre box for accurate cuts. A sharp utility knife can also be used, but proceed with caution.
