Ceiling Crack Repair That Lasts

Most DIY and quick-fix repairs use rigid compounds that crack again when your house naturally moves with temperature changes. We use flexible joint compounds and proper fiberglass mesh tape that moves with your building, preventing cracks from returning.

Usually no - most ceiling cracks are cosmetic and caused by normal building settlement, thermal expansion, or vibration. However, if cracks are wide (over 5mm), appear suddenly, or you notice other issues like sticking doors, we recommend a structural engineer assessment.

We cut out loose material, apply fiberglass mesh tape over the crack, then use multiple coats of flexible setting compound. This is feathered out for an invisible finish. The flexibility allows for natural building movement without re-cracking.

Small repairs (single hairline cracks) start from £85. Medium repairs (multiple cracks or larger areas) from £175. Extensive crack networks or difficult access from £300. We provide free quotes before any work.
