I Worked with artex once on repair job awful stuff to work with.

i prefer cornice rather than gyproc cove but I think it depends on how modern the room is.. it suits some rooms it doesn't suit others, if you were to keep it Find a nice ceiling rose to go with it and the rose will become the focal point of the ceiling (depending on the size of the rose) sets...

In new builds perhaps the cornice could be bought in as "3D printed" but you would still need someone to fit them unless you can do it yourself. A lot of our work is restoration and in listed buildings which require the cornice ran in-situ, manually on laths with lime, sand and hair. I think...

Yes I can run or cast, run in situ and dry fix... there is obviously a lot more to learn but I've got the basic skills required

Ok mate no worries at all, I do love it at times and actually enjoy it.. just hope it's worth the time, money and hard work we will see anyway I appreciate the comments

You make it sound easy, no legwork ha if only... and it wouldn't be free I haven't discussed any details also theres overheads, and it's not so successful at the minute it's in need of some serious work, also try not to judge me as a person just from this post I have potential and I know it just...
