Manged to slip in the attic and cracked the hallway ceiling.
I'm now trying to sort out the crack. I've added a batten between two joists above the cracked ceiling. I've then put a few screws into the ceiling up to the batten in an attempt to flatten out the crack.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but the crack will not flatten out. I've tried dropping the batten slightly, but this made no difference.
Any suggestions please?
