Hi,
I'm some way into a decorating project that a good diyer could turn around in days - sadly this is not me! Having stripped lounge and hall of wallpaper i have now moved into the bedroom - the worst because of the state of the walls.
The roof was replaced and as a result these ugly cracks have appeared, structurally they are not a prob but it seems that a few bricks have been displaced and caused about a 1/2cm indent over the space of about two bricks, and hairline cracks across the frontage of house. Papering is not really an option and I would/could make a complete pigs ear!.. So I am in need of some advice about a product that would cover the gap - I have heard about something which is of an ice cream consistency which can be used by someone like me.... the house just needs a general patch up so the price is slightly elevated then move on.
The other thing is the paint in this room is very flaky and badly applied in some places, I don't really want to scrape the whole lot off and start again - any low cost and effective options?
Thanks,
Charlotte
