Bondi federation cottages and Art Deco walk-ups have cornice profiles you can't get at Bunnings. We source from heritage suppliers in Marrickville and inner-west specialists.
Cornice Repair & Installation questions, answered
Can heritage decorative cornice be repaired without ripping it out?
Often, yes. We splice and mould replacement sections to match. Full replacement is rarely needed.Why does my cornice keep cracking in the same spot?
Usually building movement or a dodgy joint. We reinforce with mesh tape and flexible filler so it doesn't recur.
