thanks for that. the cracks are less than 1mm. they are random and all over the different walls. i have been told that PVA is the wrong application for lime plaster, apparently its something called bond it. not sure where i stand legally, i am just threaders as its all walls and i don't wanna...

not sure about what type of lime plaster. how do you tell the difference? it is kinda yellow/ornge in colour, has small fine hair in it and can be sandy to touch. to my recollection, the walls were PVA'd left for a bit and skimmed the same day. cheers for your feedback so far.

my hall, stairs, landing and dining room were recently plastered. PVA was applied onto lime plaster and the walls were skimmed and then painted and several months later fine hair line cracks have appeared all over? Why might that happen? should i call the plasterer back? should he make it right?
