Cable Cornice Installation in Pimlico

If visible wiring, uneven coving or tired decorative plasterwork is affecting the finish of your Pimlico property, Keaneys can help. We provide cable cornice installation in Pimlico for homes, commercial interiors and public sector spaces where the ceiling, walls and room detail need to look considered, clean and built to last. A cornice is not just a decorative edge; when designed and installed properly, it conceals cables, protects the line between walls and ceiling and supports a more durable interior finish, whether you need a new installation, cable cornice repair or period cornice matching.

Keaneys has been a family-run decorative plasterwork business since 1987, founded by Rorie Keaney. Our City & Guilds-qualified master craftsmen handle both supply and installation, so clients benefit from one accountable team rather than separate parties passing responsibility between workshop and site. We're trusted by residential, commercial and public sector clients, with experience including work for the Imperial War Museum, Pizza Express, Fortnum & Mason, Science Museum, Selfridges, Harrods and Nandos, and we hold 66 Google My Business reviews with an average rating of 4.9.

What We Do: Decorative Moulding Specialists

Keaneys specialises in handcrafted plaster products, including decorative cornice, fibrous cornice, bespoke plaster mouldings, coving, dado rails, picture rails, corbels and ceiling roses. For cable cornice installation in Pimlico, we combine traditional plasterwork skills with practical planning for modern wiring, including cable trunking cornice that hides electrical or network wiring while preserving historic plasterwork.

We can create a simple, smooth cable cornice for a contemporary interior, or a more detailed decorative moulding to match Georgian, Victorian or Edwardian surroundings, along with LED cornice and lighting trough profiles where a discreet lighting effect is needed. For older Pimlico properties, especially where original 19th-century plaster coving survives, we assess the historic fabric first and may use a slimline cable cornice rather than cutting into the existing plaster. We also account for lath-and-plaster ceilings, uneven surfaces and settling that can affect ceiling heights across the space.

    Consultation and Design

    We start with an initial consultation to discuss your project and understand what you want the cornice to achieve, whether that's concealing wiring, matching existing plasterwork or improving the finish around the ceiling perimeter. We survey the ceiling, walls, cable routes and existing coving, checking for irregularities common in older Pimlico properties.

    Customisation

    We agree the cornice style, size, length and finish. Where a match to an existing profile is needed, we take careful measurements and study the original detail, checking each junction, as older corners aren't always exactly 90 degrees.

    Manufacturing

    Our team produces the plaster sections to the agreed specification, including bespoke mouldings where a standard cornice isn't the right fit, using techniques suited to achieving a reliable match.

    Installation

    The cornice is installed with suitable fixings and adhesive, aligned cleanly to the walls and ceiling, with precise mitre cuts and jointed sections smoothed for a polished finish. Where future cable access matters, flexible adhesive or silicone sealant can be used. We finish with a quality check and practical advice on maintaining the plasterwork over time.

FAQs about Our Cable Cornice

Do you install new plaster cornice and cable cornice in Pimlico properties?

Yes. We supply and install cornice for residential, commercial and public sector properties, taking into account ceiling height, wall condition, wiring route, access and the decorative style of the room.

Can you carry out cornice repairs or match existing cable cornice?

Yes. We survey the original detail to identify the extent of damage, reproduce the profile where needed and blend the repair into the surrounding plasterwork, which is especially useful in period Pimlico properties.

What styles of cornice and plaster coving can you work with?

We work with Georgian, Victorian, Edwardian, Art Deco, fibrous, ornate, classic, contemporary and LED cornice styles, as well as ceiling roses and related features, and can create bespoke mouldings for an exact match to your room.

Do you cover only Pimlico?

No. Pimlico is one of the locations we serve, alongside our wider work across London, Kent, Surrey and East Sussex.

Why should I choose a specialist plasterwork company for cable cornice installation?

Specialist installation is usually the better choice for heritage interiors, considering period accuracy, cable access, plaster durability and ceiling alignment together. With Keaneys, the same team manages manufacture and installation, helping ensure consistent quality from estimate to completion.
