ceiling bowed with long cracks
We've just moved into an old house, and nothing came back in the homebuyers report re. structural issues. My living room ceiling is slightly bowed in certain areas. there are long 'square' shaped indentations/cracks, it looks as if something square is pressing down on the ceiling. is this something that could be just plastered over, or does it suggest a structural issue. we do have issues with the living room doors not closing easily, and the floor on the ground floor is slightly sloped. who would i call if it's a structural issue?

Can I install dryzone rods in to fresh, wet mortar?
In short: Can dpc cream or rods be inserted in to fresh, wet mortar. In length: I have rising damp on a connecting wall, not an exterior one. Under the house is a small crawl space. I used dry zone rods, and cream on 2 different areas, to see what's best to use. When I did it, I found the mortar was like mud. It smelt, felt and looked exactly like mud. I've found this regularly on my house. Anyway, I wanted to remove the motor and replace it with a fresh mortar line (3ft in length at most) in order to give the dryzone rods a proper surface to be in. My understanding is that because dpc cream can be inserted in a wet environment, I should be able to install it directly into the new mortar line without waiting for the mortar to cure. Is this worth it, or should I wait for the mortar to cure first?
