Re: Cracks galore in walls 3Feb 06, 2020 5:58 pm Don't know about a compaction certificate. BUT, the cracks in the plaster are only on the walls that were new when we had the work done. Some of the walls in the extension are original walls and there is no cracking in the plaster on those walls which makes me think it was a really crappy job done by the plasterer or maybe the painter didn't apply a proper or good sealer binder when painting??
