Is your foundation sound?

You’re the guy that recently framed up your house with steel right? Same guy?
As a drywall/lather/metalstudframer extraordinaire(lol) by trade, let me ask you a couple more questions. How did you finish the cement board? Where are these cracks happening? On interior walls only? More towards the center of house?

nah thats @TerryTeacoasy, i did mine a few years ago, and supposed to be relaxing but fixing old issues now

So yeah i’m wondering how you finished the cement board and where they’re happening? You got me very curious

It could definitely be from the metal moving from temp changes for sure.
Wood built houses nowadays with engineered trusses, have what’s called truss uplift and it’s more of a thing the more towards the middle of the house/ middle of the bottom cord of truss. Google it and you’ll get a better explanation but depending on how your roof is framed i can see a similar type of thing happening to you even though you’re steel.

Right on. Chances are it will happen again with just that caulking and paint though. When it happens again try a tape similar to what i showed earlier

You can't even get spray paints and those big markers here at most places because the graffiti is so bad
Doesn't stop it, but it annoys the hobbyists who have to order spray paints from outside the city...

Good beep!

You can. That's what I said.

That's not how it sounded. I can call a store and order something. Or I can go online and order it.

We order it. You can get lots of different tips and there's lots of better options compared to krylon.
