We had a major crack in a junction of drywall that kept reappearing after it was repaired in our well built Ohio home. We had cracks in our lanai ceiling here and we had them repaired and they cracked again. Heat and cold causes contracting and expanding in outside areas. We are thinking about having synthetic bead board installed in the lanai ceilings.


Didn't you read what the OP stated ? There is no tape on the drywall joints.
