Drywall cracks are something that everyone will have to deal with from one time or another. Drywall cracks are a normal part of settling or expansion and contraction of home material through the change in temperature of the seasons. The question is, "What can I do to fix them?" First, one would have to make sure that these cracks are not from a serious problem. If a rusty post in the basement that is starting to collapse is the reason for the drywall cracks then you obviously need to fix the post first and then fix the drywall cracks later.
