Chinese Drywall issues in Florida

Most home buyers and sellers are concerns about the Chinese drywall mess in Florida. I have compiled some information and data to help you along with this concern. This is a very informative link concerning Chinese drywall http://www.heraldtribune.com/article/20090201/ARTICLE/902010371 First I would suggest legal counsel. Second there are a numerous tell tale signs to look for:

• Strong smell (like rotten eggs or sulphate smell)
• Knauf manufacturing band or stamp on the drywall board. Got the attic access or pull down ladder and check to see if the stamp is visible.If you cannot read or get into the attic call an inspection company to verify the markings.
• Air conditioning coils are corroded. Electrical wires are also tend to corrode.
• Chinese drywall tends to be lighter than regular drywall.
