Default Coving with wonky ceiling - follow ceiling or put up level?

Hi there. *We *were* planning to put coving up in our lounge.


As per the instructions we have just drawn a level line on the top of
the walls all the way around the room... and discovered there is a 5cm
difference between the place where the ceiling is lowest and where the
ceiling is highest.

I'd put it up perfectly straight and fill the rest. IME no amount of
filler shows once painted, but wonky coving does.


What he said.


Not. IMHO, 5cm of filled gap would look naff.
