I found bad work during a pre-cover walk and it is not my install

QA/QC, Inspection & Punch Listyellow

Flag the condition, do not ignore it because it is not yours. Document location, defect, photos, and whether it affects access, seal, support, TAB, rating, or inspection.

Open in Field Rescue Open category

Field checklist

Walk the run end-to-end before cover.
Mark defects by room/grid/system.
Take wide/close/measurement photos.
Separate quick fixes from foreman decisions.
Ask who owns the repair before ceiling/insulation closes.

Ask foreman

During pre-cover at [location], I found [defect] on [system]. It may affect [seal/access/support/TAB/inspection]. Do you want me to fix, tag, or report it to the crew lead?

Do not

Do not cover bad work because it belongs to another crew. Do not repair another scope without direction.

Why it matters

Pre-cover walks protect the whole job, not just the person who installed the piece.
