Evening - my house and I are cracking up (literally)
The house was built in the 1970's and I have lived here for the last 18 months.
I've had an outbreak of cracks in the upstairs ceiling which run the length of the roof and clearly follow the platerboards. I also have a number of cracks at the top of the walls and some run down to the top of the door frames. Although the damage is minor it looks awful and I just wanted to check a second opinion - I expect the humity change, constant heat due to the current cold snap to be the main culprit.
All the cracks appears on the internal plaster - no sign of any problems on the outer brickwork. Despite some of cracks being quite long none are wider than a fingernail.
Any advice would be grateful received. Cheers.
