I would really appreciate some advice. I am having a single storey extension and creating a kitchen diner which has included removing supporting wall at back of house. In the bedroom above the RSJ I noticed a crack appear within 24 hours of the acros being removed. Within 48 hours it had developed to a 12 mm crack. The builder says this is settlement and is normal and filled it with filler. Over the weekend it seems to keep on moving. I have noticed that the bedroom window also sticks. A friend has advised me to call the building inspector to check it out ... But I am worried this will cause tension with the builder. Does this sound like settlement? Or should I get it checked out? I will try and upload a pic ....
For some reason pic has uploaded upside down! Crack goes down not up.
