What can you expect from a cornice repair expert?
Cornice repair services cover a range of issues, ensuring your decorative mouldings are restored to their original beauty. Here’s what you can expect:
Assessment & Inspection
A professional will examine the condition of your cornices, identifying cracks, gaps, or missing sections. This helps determine whether a repair or full replacement is needed. At this point, they will also determine if additional raw materials are needed. If the damage extends to the ceiling, they will assess whether ceiling repairs are required to ensure a solid foundation for the cornice restoration.
Cleaning & Preparation
Dirt, dust, and loose debris are removed to create a clean surface for repair. If necessary, the surrounding area is prepped to prevent damage to ceilings and walls. Protective coverings may be used to shield nearby surfaces, ensuring a tidy workspace.
Plastering & Patching
Small cracks and chips are repaired using plaster or specialised fillers to restore the cornice’s structure. For larger gaps, sections may be re-cast to match the original design, ensuring a seamless finish. Skilled plastering techniques help maintain the intricate details of ornate mouldings.
Ceiling Repairs & Reinforcement
If the damage extends to the ceiling, necessary repairs will be made to provide a solid foundation. Loose or sagging cornices are re-secured using adhesives, screws, or brackets to prevent future movement and ensure longevity. Reinforcement may include reapplying plaster or reinforcing joints to prevent further structural issues.
Matching & Moulding Replication
If a part of the cornice is missing or severely damaged, professionals create custom moulds to match the original design perfectly. This process ensures the repaired section blends seamlessly with the existing architecture, preserving the overall aesthetic.
Sanding, Painting & Finishing
Once repairs are complete, the area is smoothed and blended into the existing cornice. It’s then primed and painted to match the rest of the room, ensuring a polished look. Professional painters can ensure that the finish complements the surrounding decor and ceiling.
Final Inspection
Before wrapping up, the Tasker will ensure the repair is solid, aligned, and aesthetically consistent with the surrounding decor. They will also check for any imperfections and apply final touch-ups if necessary.

Patch the wall / cornice after wardrobe removal
$175
St Marys NSW, Australia
13th Oct 2026
Please patch the holes left behind when a small built in wardrobe was removed. A new, longer wardrobe is going in over the top so it doesn’t need to be painted, but do want the holes repaired, any residual silicone removed, smooth/sanded finish. NO PAINTING NEEDED. White filler is perfect/fine. For scale, the new wardrobe is going to be 2200 width, 650 depth, 1950 upright, and that’s larger than the old one was. First floor apartment in St Marys.
Shan kept in touch to organise a mutually beneficial time, ensuring the repair was done before a new wardrobe needed to go in. He was very personable and talked me through the sorts of repairs he could do. I’ll happily hire him again to help with fixing up my little apartment.
