Water has potentially damaged some ceilings by entering the roof and/or from leaks at indoor HVAC unit located in the attic. Contractor shall refer to floor plans and Sheet A1-7 for unit breakdown. Sheet A1-7 notes ceiling condition in each room of each unit type on a scale of 1-3 with blank spots indicating ceiling is in good condition and no work is required. Level 1: Indicates minor issues with ceiling that are primarily cosmetic in nature and consists of small but slightly visible cracks and/or gaps(linear imperfections) typically near substrate joints or roof structure above. Level 2: Indicates major, but not critical, issues with ceiling that are mostly cosmetic but damage extends to a larger area as opposed to a simple crack or linear imperfection. Plaster is assumed to still be adhered/attached to lath for the vast majority of the ceiling area. Level 3: Indicates critical areas of plaster ceiling damage. These are areas that are typically deformed,sagging and may be pulling away from the lath and structure above.
