Internal plaster cracks around windows

Anonymous user 23/02/2024 - 3.08 PM

We have a detached, brick built house (built mid-70s). Some of the windows have cracks going up at an angle from the top corners in the inside plaster. As we've decorated over the years I have filled these but some have come back. The outside brickwork is fine, with no signs of cracking. Is this something we should be worried about, or just continue re-filling as & when we redecorate?

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

This is nothing to worry about but to fix problem from coming back I would dot and dab plasterboard around your window and give the plasterboards a skim this will solve the problem

It's only blown plaster to fix the problem, remove the lose cracked plaster, apply a coat of bonding and skim. This problem won't happen again.
