Describe any problems in your home that could be related to Chinese Drywall

Drywall is a board made of minerals and plaster, wrapped in paper, and is used to finish walls and ceilings. The type of Drywall commonly known as "Chinese Drywall" contains harmful chemicals that do not meet U.S. standards. These dangerous chemicals are causing damage to people’s health, their belongings, and their homes.

Chinese Drywall was imported into the U.S. between 2002 and 2008. The impact on the Gulf Coast region is thought to be severe, as this time period includes both the housing boom and rebuilding after the Storm.

Chinese Drywall causes a smell that reminds people of rotten eggs or sulfur. This smell is caused by a chemical reaction between the chemicals in the drywall and moisture in the air.

Chinese Drywall can emit hazardous gases that can corrode Heating, Ventilation & Cooling (HVAC) systems, and refrigerators. Electrical systems, TVs, Microwaves, Washers, Dryers, and other appliances may need to be repaired or in some cases replaced after contact with these hazardous fumes.

How Can I tell if I have Chinese Drywall in my Home?

How Can I tell if I have Chinese Drywall in my Home?

The easiest way to tell is to check the Drywall in your home. A good place to look is in your attic. If you pull back the insulation, the Drywall stamp may be visible. Some words to look for are "Knauf" and "Made in China".

Sometimes it is difficult to find Drywall to inspect since it has been plastered or painted over, or the area where Drywall was installed is in only a portion of the home. There are scientific tests that can be performed. The samples for these tests can be taken from areas that will not be noticeable, preserving the appearance of your home.

Another sign that Chinese Drywall is present in your home is if you or your family members have begun to develop serious health issues. These may include nosebleeds, breathing problems, rashes, burning or itchy eyes, and sinus problems.

The gases produced by Chinese Drywall may also cause copper, silver and other metals to pit and corrode. Jewelry may tarnish more quickly than usual. Faucets, drains, and pipes may corrode and develop holes.
