Hairline Cracks
Causes
- The different temperatures between inside and outside the house causes the surface of the plaster to stretch or shrink unevenly, resulting in cracks on the surface.
- Structural movement.
- Stretching of the door and window frames cause cracks along the edges and corners. Plastering work is not too good.
