The Ceiling Is Falling

So,  I completed my past two hotels and they opened for business in May and June of 2013.  Of course if you have looked at any of my previous posts you know the construction quality left something to be desired.  So no surprise that a few weeks after opening the ceiling in the lobby of one of the hotels started to fall down.

There are many reasons for the ceiling to collapse first there were not enough hanging rods.  There were very few hanging rods at the leading edge of the drop which is really bad.  The rods that were their were not anchored properly.  But the silver lining in the whole scenario is that the contractor had failed to put in an access panel to a piece of air handling equipment that was up in the ceiling.  no body knew it was there until the ceiling started to fall and you could see it!

Its Bad In Here

I went into the management bathroom on site yesterday.  The bathroom sink was on the floor.  Gee that is shitty construction.  I love the toilet paper hole filling...

Then I looked at the wall, and clearly someone was taking out their frustration with the GC which confirms things are not going well.

Then I go in today and the broken sink is on the wall. Before, I had not much respect for the GC now I know they don't even have respect for themselves.  By the way, the bracket is a piece of exit sign; I mean Really!
