Hi,
I have cornice which has come away from the ceiling around 3mm. I can "push" it back into position, but when you tap on it, it sounds hollow like there isn't much cornice cement behind it. There is only around 600mm total length that needs repair.
I was thinking of using a quick setting White Construction Adhesive (like Nail It) to somehow squirt in there (not sure how) and then once its "secure", fill the visible gap with a white paintable gap filler to seal it. Any tips?
Ideally i don't want to have to remove the cornice to re-attach as i fear breaking it.
Bonus points if anyone knows what type of cornice pattern this is called, and where i can get it from?
Thanks @MitchellMc.
I am assuming I could you what u recommend for the cornice against a plasterboard as well as a brick wall ? Images provided.
Yes, you can @liverbird.
Just remember that the adhesive should be used behind the cornice and any excess cleaned off immediately. You then use a caulking sealant for the join between the cornice and the ceiling/brickwork.
