Hello all,
I bought me place from new four years ago and as I have been decorating the place over the years I've never failed to be surprised at how poorly fitted out the properties were with the cheapest materials and the shoddiest workmanship.
Anyway I'm onto the bathroom and about to prep the ceiling for painting first. I've noticed that there is a hairline crack (pictured below) around the perimeter of the ceiling.
Firstly has this happened because of the moisture in the bathroom? or is it merely natural movement in a new build?
In terms of preparation should I just fill the crack, sand it down and paint? Or is there more prep work to be done?
Cheers in advance.
