Back Shed Cracking

[madr]

Hi All,

We've got an old shed that has had some cracking across the sides.

I am concerned as some of these cracks appear quite deep and some can even see light through to the other side.

Wondering what my options are here .... any thoughts?

I think your first option might be to post a photo of the building from the outside

since it seems to be fully plastered, Im guessing its a bit more than just an old shed!

Hi see attached. Let me know what you think. thanks

The cracks between walls and ceiling are hardly surprising, you have masonry walls and timber roof joists, a bit of movement is to be expected.

If you can see daylight, thats due to the way the roof is detailed not an example of a problem.

cracks on walls may be foundation movement, but they arent very big and there arent any visible cracks on the outside.

thanks very much thats a relief. whats the best way to repair these cracks?
