  • Screwfix - Polyurethane cove with a high quality white paperboard surface for ease of painting. Apart from its super looks (sharp edges, and the same profile as plaster cove), you can see just how lightweight and easy SuperCove is to handle.
    Even a professional won’t know it’s not plaster!

    Great Vid and helpful, thanks. How about a vid re fitting Screwfix L.E.D uplight coving ? The product comes with barely any instructions re gap between ceiling and coving, where to position LEDs, flat on rebate or on edge. Also nobody does downlight l.e.d coving, so a vid how to adapt standard for downlight coving using baton on wall ? would be good

    Excellent tutorial! EPS plaster-coated coving is a great choice for DIYers. It's budget-friendly, easy to install, and adds a high-end style. For quality coving, I recommend Homemerce. They offer durable yet lightweight EPS coving ready to paint in a wide range of profiles.

    If you cut from the front to back would this not reduce the 'burred' edge. How about a video on how to cut oversize/undersize angles? - Love your advice

    If your wallpaper is vinyl/patterned dont use sealant on the bottom joint, use wallpaper paste, because this sealant or caulk will ruin your wallpaper.

    Why do the cuts look curved instead of straight as it would cut on a mitre box?

      So, mark the walls in the corners (both internally and externally) at the required drop down depth (83mm for 127mm gypsum coving) Offer up an off cut (over two foot or so) of coving to your line, then draw along the ceiling in pencil. Do both directions to create a junction on the ceiling of where the mitre point is on the ceiling.
      (The mitre point on the wall is the internal or external corner of the wall)
      Then cut your coving lengths square/straight cut. Offer it up to your wall marks (the bottom edge) and mark on the coving where the pencil marks on ceiling suggests the mitre is according to pencil junctions. Accurate Every single time!

    How do you cut internal corners that aren't 90 degrees?

    • @diesalweasel
      @diesalweasel ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You need to purchase an angle finder tool. How ever it doesn't always work ie if one side is let say 33 degrees and the other is 57 degrees if that makes sense there lots of videos on TH-cam on how to cut miter cuts at different degrees

    Is there an associated fires risk with polystyrene coving and insulating and levelling wall and ceiling papers that has to be considered? Thankyou Roger for sharing your knowledge here on YT.

    • @jonhadley8906
      @jonhadley8906 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It’s not an increased fire risk- but if involved in fire, it adds greatly to the toxins produced as a result of fire.

    Apologies for the newbie question as I'm only just starting to take an interest in DIY! Is it the same concept if the ceiling is artexed? Wasn't sure if there is something else I needed to do such as sanding the ceiling where the coving would fit as the artex as it stands would mean that it probably wouldn't sit flush. Greatly appreciate any help or advice. Many thanks!

    Can I just cut a piece of coving to create a Supercove mitre guide? Then use the coving test piece to mark and cut all my angles?

    In the 10 min video, I think would have been sensible to spend a few more mins on how to do the actual corners properly. Bought the mitre cutting guide. Nearly gave up 😂

    I've searched high and low for a supercove mitre block with the stops like you have in the video but they don't seem to exist! Can you tell us where to purchase one from please? At present I use a standard block and place a piece of wood inside as a stop but a purpose built block would make life easier. TIA
