Cornice Repair
minor repairs and short matching sections of ordinary cornice
Common situations
Internal and external corners need compatible joints and a sound adjoining run. Show both sides of the corner in the enquiry. Filling a gap alone may not address a poorly fitted piece, while movement in the surrounding building requires a separate assessment.
Identify the full affected length and adjoining sound sections. A short compatible replacement can be different from renewing an entire room. Availability of a matching profile affects the options, so confirm the proposed material before removing the original cornice.
Where a local piece is unsuitable for repair, a matching short section may be considered. The scope should identify removal, fitting and joint finishing. It does not imply rebuilding the ceiling edge or replacing hidden framing behind the decorative material.
Service overview
Joint finishing needs to suit the profile without flattening its shape. Existing paint build-up or textured surfaces can affect the match. Agree the intended finish before work starts, including whether remaining surrounding defects are outside the quoted minor repair.
A repaired cornice section may need sealing and paint after drying. Local paint can look different from aged surrounding surfaces. List decoration separately so a cornice repair does not silently become a room repaint or promise an invisible colour match.
A small stable joint defect may be suitable for minor repair. Repeated opening, loose material or uncertain attachment changes that assessment. Describe when the defect appeared without assuming its cause; this service does not diagnose structural movement or certify a ceiling junction.
Repair suitable minor joints or fit an agreed short compatible cornice section, then prepare the accepted area for decoration. Scope limits: Minor ordinary stable cornice repairs and short matching sections only. No ornate heritage restoration, large loose sections, structural movement diagnosis or hazardous materials.

Rye property context
For Rye enquiries, describe the available workspace as well as the requested cornice repair. Check the ordinary profile, sound attachment and stable surrounding surfaces before choosing a minor repair or short replacement. Include the best access contact and explain any restrictions affecting the work area. For a Rye quote, describe each task separately and note height, parking, tenant access or preferred appointment windows. This gives the Owner enough context to assess the request without collecting unnecessary personal information.
Planning the work
Check the ordinary profile, sound attachment and stable surrounding surfaces before choosing a minor repair or short replacement. Any unresolved requirement should be explained before committing to a visit or buying additional materials.
Clear the immediate working area where safe and explain heavy furniture or restricted entry. For rentals or managed properties, agree the appropriate permission and identify the person who can provide access.
Send the cornice profile, joint or damaged section, affected length and room height, with a wide view of the junction. Keep labels and instructions available so the item can be identified accurately instead of relying on a general description.
Unexpected conditions can alter the available options. Any additional work, different components or separate specialist requirement should be discussed before extending the agreed task, rather than treated as automatically included.
