Now I will explain in detail the repair that has worked for me on some of the houses I built in Illinois. I have a very good drywall contractor with 30+ years experience. He slightly grooved the drywall crack and reapplied a Quickset 90 drywall mud, feathered out approximately 6 inches wide. After 2 days he lightly sanded it and used a special sponge to dab the texture and make it match the existing texture, which is very tedious and hard to do. Then it was repainted and it turned out beautiful and has held up 2 years now with no cracks.
