Hi. I'm in the middle of decorating a bedroom. Just had the ceiling re-plastered over artex. 3 days later I noticed a thin wobbly crack across the centre of the ceiling - not straight, so not directly following a join, and there was no crack in the old artex.
The plasterer came back, cut a 5mm groove along the crack, applied PVA, and covered with easyfill. Left it for me to rub down when it dried.
Well, I did that, nice and smooth, and I painted the ceiling yesterday. However, as soon as I painted the crack became clearly visible, like a thin proud ridge following the line of the crack.
Other than getting the plasterer back and having the ceiling re-skimmed again, is there anything I can do?
