We get questions from time-to-time about how a person can determine whether they’ve got Chinese drywall in their house. One of the most-telling symptoms is the smell of rotten eggs, caused by sulfur fumes coming from the Chinese drywall. These sulfur fumes also cause corrosion of metal in the house, such as plumbing, wiring, and air conditioner coils. Another hint is, if you live in a condominium or development and have neighbors with Chinese drywall, you may have it, too. But the definitive way to determine whether you have Chinese drywall is to have your home inspected by a qualified inspector. The Chinese Drywall Attorney Alliance is offering to inspect homes of clients and, if no Chinese drywall is found, the client owes no money. If the presence of Chinese drywall is confirmed, your claim will be filed in the fast-track Chinese drywall MDL litigation in New Orleans. If we do not collect money for you, we do not charge a fee or expenses.
One thing a home inspector looks for is access to the back of the drywall to see if there are markings that identify the drywall. Some Chinese drywall has the word “Knauf” on the back. You can arrange for a prompt home inspection by calling the Chinese Attorney Alliance at 1-800-509-5357 or by filling out our free Chinese drywall case review form.
