Great tutorial, very informative! EPS plaster-coated coving is perfect for DIY jobs - it's budget-friendly, moisture-resistant, and adds tons of style. Homemerce is my go-to for coving and trimming. They have a huge range, great quality, and unbeatable prices. Everything is designed for easy DIY installation and a custom, high-end finish.

Don't spur off of a spur without a fused connection first and always buy the best led's you can afford with an aluminium channel and diffuser. They will last a lot longer and when you're putting them on like this you'd have to trash everything to replace them.

Thank you so much for this! I'm just about to do the same but with downlight coving so will definitely think about where I place the LEDs before I stick anything up!

This looks brilliant! Did you consider using an aluminium profile within the coving to help with the effect?

I was wondering what you used to paint your coving? as the paint I used isn’t covering well when the coving is lit. looks perfect when not lit thought. thanks

this bloke is hilarious 🤣

Sometimes I question myself and think, 'is this entertainment?'. Then I realise I simply can't stop watching. Loving these vids and can't wait to see the end result.

It’s so cool seeing the vision you had for this room come to life bro, even though it’s cost you a day it’s better than you sitting there and not being happy with it when it’s all done. Keep up the drive now mate, on the homestretch 💪🏻

Thanks man, there has been a few times I've gone "Maybe that idea was pushing it, or maybe that won't work" but end of the day if it didn't work I could always take it down. But so far... touch wood... its all been working.

The office is really coming together. I have zero skills in anything DIY, but you're definitely inspiring me here

I was exactly the same on my first house, and I fucked up many jobs and even flooded a living room. But I just took on jobs I knew if I did something wrong, I could just have another go. So filling in walls, if I did it wrong I could just sand it back again, or hanging skirting, if its wrong I can remove and install it again. Then over time you just try another small job, then another. You will soon get there

You should stick led strip to the coving....not the wall,this way you would not see spots.

My leds are flat..facing up to the ceiling and behind the coving so they cant be seen. The light reflects off the ceiling. I did wonder when I saw where you were sticking them. Its an uplight so it should face up 👍🏻

Was worth the extra effort going back and fixing the LEDs mate, looks slot mor professional 😉. Job well done mate

Yep, I had about an hour fight in my head about leaving it, it’s fine. Vs just do it and you will be happy you did. I’m glad I did.

Paint the ceiling matt it will help diffuse the LED's.

Thanks for uploading these videos dude really look forward to watching and seeing the room come on... just need your Friday night rant music on the videos again 👍🏻

It’s such a nice light in the room as well as everything is baked in light evenly, there is no bright spots… just pure equal light all over. Well worth doing if you get a chance.

Hi mate, I am interested in this type of coving from b&q. Slightly put off by the polystyrene but how has it held up after a year?

2 ways I can see fixing this issue take coving off move LEDs or maybe insert a frosted plastic strip which will disperse the light better

Only way I can think to get even light coverage without the spots due to spacing would be to use ws2812 - 144 LED strips but that would require a custom wiring as I don't think they do those strips in pre-made kits but they would be super bright lol.

They do look nice, but I just checked and it would cost me £500 for 20 meters I need 😩

Love it mate. Keep up the great work.

Thanks you. I can’t believe how long this job is taking

Excellent video,how far do you have LEDs from ceiling?

I'm surrounded by people telling me not to go for polystyrene based coving. Have you come across any LED friendly alternatives during your travels?

Put a thin strip of defuser material so you don't have to remove them

we are exactly the same, i would have had to change it as well! looks amazing though bud keep up the great work
