Eyup Chaps,

About 4yrs ago I was asked to cove a couple of rooms downstairs in a newbuild that had just been painted. I advised at the time that I would wait a couple of years as everything's still settling and it may crack out and again as already painted not an ideal key even with pva etc.

Anyway low and behold a couple of lengths have given on the ceiling edge. I said I could take down and refit though may happen again as going on to paint again or could leave up but nip it up by screwing into the joist and then filling the screw heads and cork up ceiling and wall line etc.

Obviously this will only work for the wall that goes length ways over the joists.

Any suggestions on a suitable drywall plug to nip it up to the other wall where no joists ie do you think a brown plug and screw will suffice?

PS. Never knowingly had this happen before though not surprised really when I think about it anyone else had this before?

Thanks Zombie

Yes but if he eased his length down carefully, a tight squeeze of the sticky white stuff into the opening might cure it??

Or perhaps Leonard Cohen's poetry through a loud speaker do the trick?
 
Done miles of coving, and i stick it up with tile adhesive, and 1'' pins top and bottom every metre .. works a treat, as the adhesive is flexible it has some give in it... never scratched a painted surface doing this either...
