Thanks for the reply, in regards to not tightening properly, before I put the shower arm in its holder with the grub screw I'm able to rotate the shower bar very easily even though the nut is tight, could this be one of the reason the water is leaking from the fitting.

I have a mixer bar shower that leaks when turned on at the outlet of the mixer bar, I have tried new washers and ptfe tape, aswel as liquid ptfe, but every time I turn it on water starts leaking from the joint and it takes a good few seconds for the water to start coming from the shower head...

That wall I did have re-skimmed, but other walls have shown cracks and haven't been re-skimmed, going back to previous comments in the forum about filler has blown, I do remember filling a crack where the photo shows so I bet that's the cause, no other room in the house has done this

The wallpaper hasn't split or lifted, it just looks it's a crack in the wall that's showing through the paper but it's a heavy vinyl wallpaper

Thanks for your help everyone, this is a photo of one of the many cracks lines that have appeared, if it helps at all

I've had my hall papered 6 months ago and now crack lines have appeared in the wallpaper, the wallpaper is a heavy vinyl, anyone know why this has happened ? Or a way to fix it without stripping the paper? Thanks
