Hola, alguien me puede ayudar -- ¿como se dice "coving" en español? Coving is vinyl that runs up the wall in one continuous piece from the floor. Gracias

I agree with Sally: "coving" is called "moldura (interior)", at least in Spain. You also have "cornisa" (cornice), but this also applies to other parts.

P.S. I thought "coving" referred to concave mouldings, generally applied at the edges between the walls and the ceiling.

No it's different. Crown moulding is from wood, coving is from vinyl. Thanks.

Is this the same as crown moulding? If it is, I would translate coving as "moldura".
