Thank you for that advice. I realise I shouldn’t be examining it so much. I do have one hollow section upstairs on a non load bearing wall. Hollow section is about 300mm x 300mm. What drives me bananas is moderate to loud bangs/ thumps I hear most nights from what I perceive to be the wall upstairs. Makes me think something is giving !
I am getting very paranoid worried about this as I have a lot of this around the house.
The cracks in the photo are new. I’m in the house 10 months.
Other cracks upstairs are there 6 months and extending ? Both cracks shown below are same size… no cracks are wider than 1mm. Appreciate ur input…
Hi. The picture attached shows the type of cracks around my new build 10 months after moving in.
this one is on a finished mortar wall..
There are a decent amount of them
blue dots show the pattern
thanks
Just looked at lunch . Have multiple hairline cracks in mortar plaster starting to come vertically down from the ceiling along the walls also. They may have been there for a while, don’t know
Hi all. I have some questions about plaster cracking in my new home. I attached a doc outlining the issue. I have added photos which I hope help. Some photos may not portray it accurately so for clarify , all cracks are hairline or minutely wider than hairline . Bit of a long post but I really appreciate the feedback as I did during the build.thanks
