  1. I would think the wall would need to bracing in the back to support the weight of the sign but I don't see any?????? Where are the other stores signs? Wierd place to mount a sign anyway. Wonder if any engineering was done.......yeah I know, stupid question!
  2. Looks like whoever put the sign up maybe didn't mount all points to the studs? Hence the weight of the sign pulled the sheetrock down.
  3. I had a similar experience happen to me a few years ago at a outside mall in Ocala FL. We were installing a set of CL's and a under canopy sign when the stucco ceiling came falling down around us! It didnt even start where we were working but to the left of us......the ceiling peeled away like a banana, turned the corner and keep going for about 200 ft. All the undercanopy signs went through the storefronts of about 6 stores. After it fell I took photos of the 1/2" STAPLES holding the mesh on the joists......1/2" STAPLES!!!!!! The contractor was held accountable for all damages and no one was injuried thank goodness.
  4. I got a interview with a great sign company tomorrow!!!!! Stay tuned!!!!

  15. Here in SW Florida the Commercial Real Estate properties have been in a major decline for over a year already. The strip Malls are empty and they are building more???? Makes no sense. The major Malls are losing tenants at a alarming rate too. Think we are ahead of the National curve.....unfortunately!
  16. I am terrible sorry that this has happened to you but I have to agree with Chubby about not shipping till you get the permit copy in hand. Did you say that you have already paid your installer? As a Install Coordinator for a National Company I always pay 50% up front then wait to pay the balance after I have recieved the survey/photos, permit, final inspection and invoice/final photos...........This avoids all problems. Good luck!
