Hi Guys.
We live in a 1930's mid terrace house with curved bay windows both upstairs and down and the front.
Ever since we moved in (2 years ago) we have had cracks in all of the corners where the curve of the bay joins the rest of the house. They do not seem to be getting any worse and there is no other cracks I can see or any damage outside, they just reappear if we fill in and paint etc.
Can anyone tell me if this is normal movement that should be expected with bays (have never lived with them before) or whether there is something more sinister lurking. Don't fancy forking out £350 for a suveyors report. The survey when we bouth the house didn't reveal anything and we have had double glazing put in which bought out nothing on their survey.
If this is normal movement, can anyone suggest the best way of decorating as the cracks are ruining the look of the rooms.
Thanks
