We've been following this closely since we sell plumbing piping and fixtures in the Florida area and this sulfur corrodes everything. Unbelieveable. Never seen anything like it. Year old plumbing looks like it's been outdoors for 40 or 50 years.

Me and my partner are first time home buyers and trying to find the right house and it states on a house we are interested in the following “ Must sacrifice due to possible Chinese drywall usage”. I think this is outrageous that the house is still being sold to others knowing. I thought the government is responsible for providing homes that are suitable for home owners to live in but if houses are still being sold in this condition it shows us how our system works… Unlike the suppliers when they purchased the material from china me and my partners looked it up and have been researching before making our purchase. The problem here isn’t china it’s the fault of the authorities who allowed the import of such material. “No one is certain yet what is causing the problem. The health aspects of this are not fully known yet”, this quote also proves that no one knows yet what the problem really is but of course we put fault towards the Chinese. Great to blame but not realize it’s a mistake that could have been stopped from happening by just researching the supply. I had no idea what Chinese drywall was until now.

This just goes to show that we cannot buy cheap shoddy quality materials from China. Buy sustainable products from your local area, stimulate the economy locally first. Wow.
