  If its an older house they can start to do that.. either pay a carpenter/builder or get some nails and a hammer and follow the studs.. I've done it at my old place pretty easy

      That doesn't look too bad doubt its land movement as you would see alot of cracking everywhere in the plaster and also in the brick work out side, a carpenter/builder can pin the gyprock back to the studs, sort it out sooner than later as more will start to become undone due to the weight

  Ceiling replacement for double garage including taking away old gyprock and 2 coats of paint ~$3k.

  more screws.
  need to take away the cornices too, maybe have a right angle flashing screwed against the gyprock then glue the cornices back.
  do it sooner, the gyprock sheet might not want to bend back.

  How old is house?
  Older places used normal gyprock so over time moisture gets into the gyprock, making it heavier and so this happens.
  Rescrew or replace sagging area.

      Yes - only some will do replacement (very dusty).

        Thanks, we re contacting a plasterer. Hopefully we can fix it rather than replacing. Thanks again.
