Defective Chinese drywall is becoming a major problem for many Florida homeowners.

I, John A Pelland owner of Accent Construction and Remodeling, personally understand what homeowners are going through. I discovered defective Chinese drywall in my own home purchased 1 year ago from Meritage Homes. I have been working diligently with other experts to find permanent solutions for myself and many other homeowners. My 20 plus years in the residential construction and renovation business gives me great insight as to what will be required to completely and permanently correct this problem. I will not settle for any band-aid solutions to this problem in my home and I don’t expect you will either. I have dedicated months of research to this topic and I am committed to protecting homeowners .

Unfortunately this isn’t just a matter of drywall replacement. Each residence is unique and will require its own plan for remediation. HVAC systems will need to be inspected and most systems will need at a minimum replacement of coils in air handler. Electrical systems will need inspection and corroded plugs, switches and breakers will need to be replaced. Corroded and pitting plumbing fixtures will need to be replaced. Insulation, carpet and padding that have absorbed odors and gases more than likely will need to be replaced. The list goes on.
