Real-world usage of PNT|PNTACS
Appears in 7 of 358 scopes ESXPress has analysed and in 3 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 11 line items across 7 scopes processed through ESXPress — the exact operation text and unit of measure adjusters actually write:
- “Seal/prime acoustic ceiling (popcorn) texture”7 lines
- “Seal/prime PVA 1 ct”1 line
- “Seal/prime surface - one coat”1 line
- “Drywall/Plaster Ceiling - Prime”1 line
- “Seal/prime paint ceiling (popcorn) texture”1 line
Dominant unit of measure: SF — used in 100% of samples.
Frequently estimated with PNT|PNTACS
Codes measured in the same claim scopes as PNT|PNTACS, from scopes processed through ESXPress. The count is how many scopes carried both lines.

What it is
PNT|PNTACS is a Painting (PNT) Xactimate SEL code used for this work, measured in square feet (SF).
ESXPress’s reference documents PNT|PNTACS. Across processed claim scopes, ESXPress observed 11 line items written against this code — every one measured in SF. The line appears in 7 of the 358 scopes analysed (about 2.0%).
When to use it
Use PNT|PNTACS when the scope calls for this code — Painting work measured in square feet (SF). The real-world act texts track the reference wording: 7 of the 11 observed line items (63.6%) were written with this code.
The co-occurrence data below comes from processed scopes; the strongest pairing is with TMP|TMPBIDITM — the same scopes, 3 times.
How to use it
Measure the work in SF: 11 of the 11 observed line items (100.0%) used SF. There is no unit variation for this code in the processed scopes.
This code accounts for 7 of the 11 sampled lines (63.6%). Estimators also write “Seal/prime PVA 1 ct” (1 line).
Often used together
Two kinds of related codes are listed below. First, codes that appear in the same scopes as PNT|PNTACS — 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: “Seal/prime PVA 1 ct”, SF, qty 1.
- In a real claim, this line appeared as: “Seal/prime surface - one coat”, 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: “Seal/prime paint ceiling (popcorn) texture”, SF, qty 1.
