the plaster on my walls is cracking

Hi mark, can you give us more details please? For example: do you live in an older type property & the original plaster has cracked or the house has been re-plastered/re-skimmed at some point etc....? If you can provide us with some additional information,it may help in determining the cause and give you some possible solutions. Cheers, Carl.

does the cracking tend to feature more on the outer walls of the property then this might be caused by settlement or movement ,or if this is on the interior walls could be anything from old undercoat render seperating from this finish coat (top coat) or poor scrimming if the property is plasterboarded. but in my experience most properties crack at some stage and can be easily repaired, hope this has been some kind of help many thanks jamie.

Is it just the plaster or is the brick work and how old is the property...?

The cause of the problem can be many of things streching from the age of the property to the under coat of the biulding and any damp issues in the property! Any more info would help me tell you more. Thanks Chris

you prob have a sand cement base coat ,this cracks after 2 + years ,if the walls are solid and plaster not blown ,scrim the cracks apply thistle bond it and skim them,no more cracks.
