The walls in tINs living room have developed a number of cracks. My neighbor, whose house was built at the same time, does not lhave this problem. The builder says to wait a couple of months longer, then cover the cracks with patching plaster.

He says I must do the work myself, The walls are made of real plaster and are not plasterboard. Can you tell me why the walls cracked and why they didn't crack next door? And why must I wait to fix them? A. I cannot give any opinion on whether you or the builder should fix the cracks. Obviously, if you had no written agreement covering such repairs, you'll have to do the job yourself. The reason for waiting is that the cracks may get longer during the next few months.

They are not likely to get wider, although this is a slight possibility. This times happens in a new house until it settles solidly in the ground, It is not unusual for it to happen to one house and not to the one next door. To make sure that the cracks have stopped lengthening, place a light chalk'or pencil mark at the end of every crack. If the crack doesn't get longer for the next three or four months, the yard. While an ordinary mixture calls for enough water to make the plaster somewhat the'Con- sistency of dough, a bit more water should be used for narrow cracks.

This Is so that the watery mixture can be forced into the openings and smoothed with a trowel or wood float. After waiting a few days, cover the patches with a little white paint. Wait another day or two, then go over the repaired areas with paint that matches the walls. You'll just have to do the best you can about getting a good match, f'm sorry to say that In some cases the new paint will stand out and you may have to do the entire wall.
