Do I need to prepare the walls and ceiling before installing coving?Updated a year ago

Yes, it's essential to prepare the walls and ceiling before installing coving for optimal results. Here's what you need to do:

Clean the Surface: Ensure that the walls and ceiling are clean and free from any dirt, grease, or dust. Use a damp cloth or mild detergent solution to remove any residues that may affect adhesion.

Dry Surface: Make sure the walls and ceiling are completely dry before proceeding with the installation. Moisture can interfere with the adhesive and compromise the integrity of the coving.

Remove Debris: Check for any debris or loose particles on the surface and remove them. Smooth out any bumps or imperfections to create a flat and even surface for the coving to adhere to.

By properly preparing the walls and ceiling, you'll ensure a smooth and successful installation of the coving, resulting in a polished and professional finish in your space.
