Real-world usage of PNT|PNTAC

Appears in 11 of 358 scopes ESXPress has analysed and in 2 of 550 converted customer scopes. Usage is measured from real claim documents, never estimated. How this is measured.

How it's written in real claims

From 15 line items across 11 scopes processed through ESXPress — the exact operation text and unit of measure adjusters actually write:

  • “Seal & paint acoustic ceiling (popcorn) texture”9 lines
  • “Seal and paint acoustic ceiling (popcorn) texture”2 lines
  • “paint surface area”1 line
  • “Drywall/Plaster - Ceiling - Prime”1 line
  • “Drywall/Plaster Ceiling - Paint, 1 coat”1 line

Dominant unit of measure: SF — used in 100% of samples.

Frequently estimated with PNT|PNTAC

Codes measured in the same claim scopes as PNT|PNTAC, from scopes processed through ESXPress. The count is how many scopes carried both lines.

Other Painting (PNT) codes ranked by how often each appears in the claim scopes ESXPress has processed, most-used first. Every code below carries its own measured-usage page.

What it is

PNT|PNTAC is a Painting (PNT) Xactimate SEL code used for this work, measured in square feet (SF).

ESXPress’s reference documents PNT|PNTAC. Across processed claim scopes, ESXPress observed 15 line items written against this code — every one measured in SF. The line appears in 11 of the 358 scopes analysed (about 3.1%).

When to use it

Use PNT|PNTAC when the scope calls for this code — Painting work measured in square feet (SF). The real-world act texts track the reference wording: 9 of the 15 observed line items (60.0%) were written with this code.

The co-occurrence data below comes from processed scopes; the strongest pairing is with Floor protection (PNT|PNTMASKSF>) — the same scopes, 6 times, lift 11.47.

How to use it

Measure the work in SF: 15 of the 15 observed line items (100.0%) used SF. There is no unit variation for this code in the processed scopes.

This code accounts for 9 of the 15 sampled lines (60.0%).

Often used together

Two kinds of related codes are listed below. First, codes that appear in the same scopes as PNT|PNTAC — co-occurrence measured across the claim scopes processed through ESXPress with support of at least 3 scopes and lift of at least 1.5. Second, other frequently used Painting (PNT) category codes, ranked by how often they appear in the analysed scopes. Descriptions are from the ESXPress code reference.

Real-world examples

Each example is an anonymised line from a processed claim scope: the exact operation text and unit of measure adjusters wrote, with the observed line-item count. The count is line frequency across the analysed samples — never a price and never a quantity from a specific claim.

  • In a real claim, this line appeared as: “paint surface area”, SF, qty 1.
  • In a real claim, this line appeared as: “Drywall/Plaster - Ceiling - Prime”, SF, qty 1.
  • In a real claim, this line appeared as: “Drywall/Plaster Ceiling - Paint, 1 coat”, SF, qty 1.
