Cornice repair specialists in Harrow
Cornices play an important role in the architectural detail of a room, forming a decorative transition between walls and ceilings. Over time, plaster cornices can deteriorate, particularly in older Victorian, Edwardian and Georgian properties found throughout Harrow.
At Cornice Restoration London, we specialise in repairing:
• Cracked or broken plaster cornices
• Missing or loose cornice sections
• Water-damaged and stained cornices
• Decorative moulding loss or erosion
• Poor-quality previous repairs
• Cornices affected by ceiling movement
Our aim is always to repair rather than replace wherever possible, maintaining the original fabric and detail of your cornices.
Traditional plaster cornice repairs
We use traditional lime and gypsum plaster techniques to ensure repairs match the original cornice profile, texture and finish. Our craftsmen carefully take moulds from existing sections when required, allowing us to recreate missing details with precision.
Every repair is carried out with attention to detail, ensuring seamless blending with the surrounding cornice so that the finished result looks original, not patched.

Cornice Repairs Harrow – Frequently Asked Questions
What causes cornice damage?
Cornice damage is commonly caused by age, water leaks, roof issues, structural movement, poor ventilation and previous low-quality repairs.
Can cracked cornices be repaired?
Yes. Most cracks can be repaired effectively using traditional plaster techniques. In many cases, cracks can be stabilised and blended so they are no longer visible.
Do you replace entire cornices?
We always aim to repair first. Full replacement is only recommended when the cornice is beyond repair or missing entirely.
Will the repair match the existing cornice?
Yes. We take moulds or carefully hand-form details to ensure repairs match the original design, profile and finish as closely as possible.
Do you work on listed buildings?
Yes. We have experience working on listed and heritage properties and can carry out repairs in line with conservation requirements.
How long do cornice repairs take?
This depends on the extent of the damage. Small repairs may take a day, while more detailed restoration work can take several days.
Do you provide cornice repairs for commercial properties?
Yes. We work on offices, retail spaces, hotels and other commercial buildings throughout Harrow.
