Removal of Coving

[ahoey]

Just bought a house, i want to remove the coving, it was a bad job and is an eye sore. How do you remove it with out damaging the ceilng/walls

Depends on type and how it is fixed. If the job is as bad as it sounds it probably has not been very well fixed. All I can say is proceed with caution. You will have to replace at least and at worst redecorate. If you are reasonable you should be able to repair any damage. Good luck I have a similar job to tackle during the winter. Ask around most people know a tradesman.
