Made to match existing cornice, Bradford Ave, Cleethorpes

We have been commissioned to the job, customer wishes to have new cornice in kitchen that is matching to original Edwardian cornice in her front room. 

 Feedback from my customer :

 “ Hi, firstly thank you for such a fantastic job and for being prepared to work so late, it looks wonderful. I didn't ever think I would find a craftsman like yourself locally, and only ever dreamed of getting an original cornice replicated. The only place I could find any cornice/ coving that wasn't gyproc was on Ebay, these companies were in , Leeds, Sheffield etc.... and only offered certain patterns. You are a craftsman and your expertise should be in great demand, you really should place an ad ( cost Permitting) in one of the big house magazines, finding someone to replicate, replace and repair original plaster mouldings is not easy honestly, your attention to detail is second to non, I only wish I had known about you for the conservatory, but its not a mistake I will make again . I do have a cornice in a bedroom that is damaged and in the future would like you to repair it, but it may be a while ha ha ha . Thank you again” .
