General
What lengths are your cornice / coving supplied in?
Most cornice / coving is supplied in 3m lengths. There are some exceptions to this, but this is indicated with the cornice on the website or in the brochure.
How do I decide which cornice / coving to pick?
Whilst this is a personal design choice, there are some factors to be considered when looking at cornices/coving.
This is the height of your ceiling, and the size of your room. Also important to consider is if there is any impediment, like high door or window frames, bulkheads or vents/alarms etc., as this may dictate the depth of the cornice down along the wall.
How do you measure your cornice / cornice?
All our cornices/covings are measured in terms of their projection along the ceiling and depth down along the wall. All measurements are in millimetres.
We do not measure cornice / coving in terms of it’s actual width as that does not tell our clients how it will fit.
Some cornices that are the same width have very different projection and depth measurements, and this can have important bearing on the final design.

I am carrying out restoration work. Can you match the existing cornice for my project?
The process is simple to start. Simply call us directly on 012812161 and we can arrange for a site visit, which is free of charge (depending on location) where we can discuss with you exactly what your requirements are, and assess the cornice / decorative plasterwork that needs to be matched.
We then put together a quotation for your consideration, based on the site visit, so that the price quoted is specific to your requirements.
Alternatively, you can email info@oldmould.com or send pictures via messaging or WhatsApp to 0876535265 of the cornice / decorative plasterwork that you need to match and we can give some guideline costings based on that.
