Our house is a three storey end terrace, built with brick end walls and with concrete lintels joining the end walls. The side walls (with the lintels) have a lot of very large windows. The remaining part is covered with upvc weatherboarding. The house is about 40 years old, and the lintels have sagged a bit.
Inside, on the top floor, on the side wall, a long horizontal crack has opened up. It was there when we bought the house, and the survey said it was nothing to worry about. Every time I fill this crack, it just opens up again. It's only a millimetre or two wide, and it's not getting any wider, but I think there must be a little bit of movement there.
The interior wall is I think some kind of plasterboard attached to the concrete lintels. The wall is just plastered and painted, there's no wallpaper.
Can anyone suggest a way of covering over this crack more permanently?
