window wall joint cracks

JEN22

i have just had the living room replastered and pained. There are cracks appearing round where the new plaster meets the window


Any ideas what to do?

This is pretty standard as your windows will expand and contract at a different rate to the walls. This will be worse depending on how the windows are fitted.

Just run some decorators caulk around the window frame/crack and smooth it off. Once it is dry it can be painted to match.
