The Art of Cornice & Plastering
Edinburgh’s architectural heritage is renowned globally, characterised by its stunning period properties. At Capital Cornice, we are dedicated to preserving and enhancing these beautiful features with our expert cornice repair and traditional plastering services .
The intricate cornicing that frames ceilings and the enduring plaster of the walls can suffer from damage due to leaks, age, or past renovations. Meticulous restoration is crucial to maintaining the historical integrity and aesthetic appeal of these properties. Our skilled artisans possess a deep understanding of traditional techniques combined with modern expertise. We carefully assess any damage and use sympathetic methods to repair and restore, seamlessly blending new work with existing plaster to ensure an authentic finish.
Our services extend beyond restoration to the installation of new cornicing and comprehensive plastering. We are proficient in working with traditional lime plaster, which is especially vital for older Edinburgh buildings as it allows the walls to breathe, preventing dampness and maintaining structural health. For newer constructions and renovations, we expertly apply gypsum plasters, ensuring a smooth, durable, ready-to-decorate finish.
We pride ourselves on our meticulous attention to detail, ensuring every curve of a cornice and every inch of a wall is finished to perfection. Our commitment to quality craftsmanship and clean working practices means minimal disruption to your home while delivering exceptional results.
