Chinese Drywall

Chinese Drywall is an imported building material that has been determined to contain dangerously high levels of sulfur compounds that emit toxic chemicals that can harm your family and home. The defective Chinese Drywall was manufactured by a company called “Knauf Plasterbond (Tianjin) Co., Ltd”, (“KPT”). The defective Chinese Drywall, which often gives off a sulfur like odor (like rotten eggs), has been linked to serious respiratory problems, nosebleeds, dry eyes and severe headaches. In addition, the toxic chemicals corrode metals within buildings, causing damage to wires, copper pipes, air conditioning systems and electronic equipment.  

Chinese Drywall has also been reported to be friable, which means small particles can easily become dislodged thus enabling them to be inhaled. Many people have been forced to vacate their home in order to prevent health problems from occurring.

Tons of inexpensive Chinese Drywall have been imported into the United States over the last decade. It has been estimated by government sources to be enough to build as many as 100,000 homes. Some of these homes are in California communities.

If Chinese Drywall is discovered, it must be carefully removed by experts and replaced. Homeowners need to determine whether they have Chinese Drywall as soon as possible. It is dangerous to remove it yourself, unless you are an expert in this field.

If you have detected any of the warning signs described above, do not hesitate to contact us for a no cost consultation.
