I have recently noticed cracks noticed in internal walls, edges of doors, across landing ceiling + on top of window in bathroom. What could this be? What expert should I consult to check it out?

I moved into my first house four years ago. The House was built approx 1930-1950's, was recently re-decorated before i moved in. And the bathroom had been moved from downstairs to upstairs. I can not see any external cracks in the outside walls. Thank u to House Doctors for advice, have followed up.

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

You need to consult a structal engineer. It may be due to movement of the house in which case you will need to underpin. It could be due to poor workmanship as well. It's hard to say without inspection
