I have several vaulted ceilings where the tape is peeling off in the vaults. No water problem. The house is on a bay and the waves hit the bulkhead & cause movement in the house. This in turn causes slight movement in the vaulted ceiling. I realize that the house should have been built with X Crack on the framing and then the sheetrock added. That way the ceiling would have some give and not crack. But the house is totally finished.
My ceiling has been repaired twice and peeled off each time. Rather than taking the sheetrock off and starting over, I would like to take the tape off at the vaults and try something else that is flexible. Would a bead of flexible silicone work? Can this be painted over? Flexible tape? I do want to repaint the ceiling after I do this repair.
I would appreciate any advice you may have. Thanks.
