Best wishes on getting an economical ceiling repair. I have some water damage in a corner of my bathroom ceiling from a roof leak in 2005. I've since left it the way that it is.Came home from trip to find water damage in MBR ceiling and nonfunctioning AC in that room despite blower working. Investigated and problems both came from AC air handler for that section of the house. Condensate drain pipe had fallen apart and the sheet metal overflow pan had overfilled, causing the ceiling damage and triggering the deadman switches that prevented the outdoor unit from functioning.
Squeezed up to the attic with a shop vac, emptied the overflow pan (not fun bringing the full shop vac back down the pull down stairs!), and re-assembled the condensate drain pipe. AC now works! (Need to get to the ceiling repair at some point....)
