1) These type of ceilings are exposed to excessive oestrus because of how close the vaulted ceiling is to the actual roof.
2) Sometimes when the drywall was installed at the vaulted ceiling the drywall hangers go out to big of a gap at the vault.
3) Another mutual error during the construction stage of when the drywall ceiling was initially installed without using the correct amount of fasteners which lead to the ceiling sagging over fourth dimension and popping the tape joint at the vaulted ceiling.
4) Other times there is no framing member to attach to at the summit section of the vaulted ceiling.

These are just a few of the reason why a vaulted ceilings tape joints fail.

After applying a Straight Flex specialty tape for a nice crisp line along the vault and three coats of mud and a little fine sanding, it was time to utilize the knockdown texture sponge to blend the existing knockdown texture on this vaulted ceiling repair.
