Ceiling crack-GRP fiberglass installation on top of existing loft room

Posted by Prav E, on
We are getting reroofing done for a semi-detached house. A Roofer is installing a GRP / Fibreglass roof ( previously felt ) on top an existing loft conversion room since yesterday. I have just noticed a crack in the ceiling and it has started to worry me - Please see the images attached. Is it something to worry about? - If it is what are my options? Many thanks.

no images attached, but it could just be poor original construction ie wrong size timbers used and as the roofers walk on the roof the plasterboard is flexing/cracking, if the crack is 1mm wide id not worry, if its 2-3-4mm wide id be alot more concerned and suggest removing the plaster boards to see any structural movement
