Frequently Asked Questions – Cornice Repairs Berkshire

What causes cornice damage?
Cornice damage is commonly caused by age, natural building movement, water leaks, impact damage, or previous poor repairs. Plaster cornices are particularly vulnerable to moisture and structural shifts.

Can damaged cornices be repaired or do they need replacing?
In most cases, cornices can be repaired rather than replaced. Skilled restoration can fix cracks, reattach loose sections and recreate missing details, preserving the original design.

Do you match existing cornice designs?
Yes. We specialise in matching existing cornice profiles and decorative details. Where necessary, bespoke moulds are created to ensure repairs blend seamlessly with the original work.

Do you work on listed or period properties in Berkshire?
Yes. We regularly carry out cornice repairs and restoration on period and listed buildings, using traditional methods and materials appropriate for historic properties.

How long do cornice repairs take?
The timescale depends on the extent of the damage and complexity of the design. Minor repairs may take a day, while larger restoration projects can take longer. We provide clear timeframes during the quotation process.

Will the repaired cornice be ready for painting?
Yes. All repairs are finished to a smooth standard and left ready for painting or decorating once fully dry.
