What is the difference between coving and cornice?

The terms coving and cornice are often intertwined. However, there is a slight difference as the term cornice refers to a moulding designed to conceal the joint between the wall and ceiling, whereas coving usually refers to the style and type of cornice profile, usually a simplistic uniform design.

What is the best type of coving?

The best type of coving is lightweight Purotouch or Duropolymer. Purotouch is a high-quality and high-density polyurethane material that allows fine details. Duropolymer is an extruded and impact-resistant polymer based on a high-density polystyrene material. Lightweight coving creates a long-lasting and refined finish, and is also easier to install than plaster coving.
