If they are just hairline cracks I would not get too excited over them. If they were 1/4" then I would worry.

RE: Greg,
Yes, they are just hair line cracks. You have to look really close to see them.
I'm going to have someone come in and paint the ceiling and try to not worry about them.
I'm the type of person that if something isn't done perfect I redo it. Once took me 5 or 6 times to lay flooring before it was perfect. A habit I need to break.

it's a good idea to check those things anyway, but more than likely the cracks are those that are almost the norm for double wides. and are for the most part cosmetic only.
Fleetwood brand had a big problem with cracks at the marriage line several years back.

In many Mobile homes it could just be the wood from the roof truss drying & shrinking.

Thks Greg, I'll check the things mentioned in previous post. It is good to know that is probably not serious.
