Morning All.
I am renovating our kitchen and we have to remove the cornice from around the wall/overhead cabinets
We have removed some of it and have discovered the exhaust fan air was blowing into this cavity above the cupboards below the ceiling. Aparently this is common paractice in a 2 story home.
Now as the new cabinets will be 5 cm less in depth l will have to repair this bit of ceiling as the cornice is not going to be put back.
The ceiling has been soaking up the greace and fat particls from the exhaust air and is peeling . Its not damp.
If l peel back this damaged surface paper then very neatly fill and sand that area then seal it prior to painting will that do the job properly?
Reall apreciate any advice here. Painter where are you?
cheers
