Sometimes Those Hairline Cracks Just Keep Coming Back

Sometimes Those Hairline Cracks

Just Keep Coming Back

 

 

There are some buildings that have a tendency to shift. I'm not talking about major settling but movements great enough to cause those hairline cracks in the walls or ceilings. With some buildings this shifting is temporary, some a regular issue for years. Short of major building stabilization, this is not much that cab be done about this. Some cracks in the walls just need to be patched over and over. With care the patch can blend in and look good until it happens again.

Getting new shower walls? Consider replacing the shower fixture too.
