Introduction — a short story
The management of a busy business hub in Gurugram noticed uneven ceilings and occasional noise from AC ducts in their office block. They asked Housepedia for a professional property inspection to confirm whether these were minor cosmetic issues or something that could affect safety and operations. Housepedia carried out a detailed on-site inspection and produced a clear, photographed report to help the client prioritise repairs.
Client concerns
- Visible undulation and cracks in the false ceiling.
- Suspected loosened ceiling supports near AC ducts.
- Worry about open/loose electrical wiring inside ceiling voids.
- Desire to know whether there was any water leakage or seepage.
- Need for an easy-to-follow, safety-first plan to fix issues without disrupting office work.
Inspection process (what Housepedia checked)
Housepedia performed a focused, practical property inspection covering:
- Civil check — false ceiling condition, channels, tie belts, tie rods, and structure quality of the false ceiling and AC ducts installations.
- Mechanical / AC duct check — duct joints, foil pipes, rust, endoscopy inside ducts, corrosions and air-leak tests.
- Electrical check — presence of open or loose wiring within ceiling voids and accessibility of electrical runs, laying of electrical wiring.
- Plumbing & seepage check — visual inspection for water stains, leaks or dampness.
- Safety checks — missing nuts/bolts, loose fixtures, and any items that posed immediate hazard.
(These are main checks and findings are taken from the HousePedia report for this property.) 91_SpringBoard_Inspection_Report
Key findings
- Multiple rooms (pantry, meeting room, conference room, cabins, reception) showed broken or loose tie belts supporting the false ceiling.
- Undulation and cracks were noted in several ceiling panels — uneven surfaces that can worsen over time.
- AC duct issues: aluminum foil pipes found torn or loose at some joints; tape around joints was missing in places. Endoscopy inside some ducts showed no rust and no internal leakage, but external joints needed repair.
- Open/loose electrical wires observed inside ceiling voids in multiple locations — a clear safety concern.
- Missing fasteners (e.g., nuts in ceiling stands) noted in at least one cabin.
- No active water leakage or seepage was found during the inspection (good news).
Recommendations (practical & Prioritized)
Immediate (safety first)
- Secure or replace all broken/loose tie belts and install missing nuts/bolts — hire a professional false-ceiling contractor.
- Make open electrical wires safe: conduiting, cap, re-route or enclose wiring and have a licensed electrician re-secure connections.
Short term (within weeks)
- Repair torn AC duct joints and re-tape properly; call an experienced AC/duct technician for sealing and insulation checks.
- Fix undulated or cracked ceiling panels; replace damaged panels and re-level where necessary.
Ongoing / preventive
- Close gaps between lintel and false ceiling where feasible to prevent dust, pests, or accidental damage.
- Schedule periodic checks (every 6–12 months) of ceiling supports and duct joints as part of a preventive civil check plan.
- Keep all repair receipts and warranties; use Housepedia’s detailed reporting to track completed work.
Outcome / Value delivered
- The client received a clear, photographed, and prioritized property inspection report from Housepedia that separated safety hazards from cosmetic issues.
- Early identification of loose tie belts and open wiring helped prevent potential accidents and costly emergency repairs.
- The inspection confirmed no active seepage, giving the client confidence and allowing them to focus on targeted repairs.
