Hi

We have a recurrent crack in our landing. It’s at the junction of solid plaster to a brick wall and plasterboard to a blockwork wall so obviously some differential movement going on. The block is the knock through to the later extension.

What is the best way to fill/repair the crack? Would scrim taping the joint work?

Many thanks

Alan

No paper tape or scrim used in cracked corner joints. Best way to fix.
