Hi guys,
Throughout my house I have all sorts of bad mud and tape work that's pretty nasty looking. I'm actually not sure on the tape if that just came loose over time as the house settled / shifted with the seasons? We live in IL so it will get anywhere from -10 to 98 degrees in a year. Upstairs there are big gaps in the ceiling and wall from the trusses shifting I believe... that's something for a later date...
So in my office, you can see that we have some pretty gnarly corners and mud (see attached).
1. Is there a way to fix this or is it a lost cause?
2. If there is no fix, is there a cover up option that might work?
There are layers of paint all over that mud and everything...
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. This is happening throughout the entire house unfortunately...
Thanks!
