We're hardwood frame, fibro on brick columns, with clay a mere half-metre down. With the drought and rain and drought, the clay is shrinking and shifting, and we're seeing cracks starting in the internal plaster.
Cracks in internal plaster isn't awful, but it's not great, either. Some shifting is not unexpected given the new windows and given the drought-rain-drought pattern of the last decade. I'm almost certainly going to have to do some light internal repairs and deal with the shifting.
I have the awful feeling that I'm going to pay off the mortgage, only to find myself dealing with house issues for the rest of my existence...
I guess that's kind of how it goes, though.
