"CDW (Contaminated Drywall, also known as 'corrosive', 'defective', 'imported', or 'Chinese' drywall) has been imported into the United States since 1999 with a large increase in those shipments, as a result of the hurricanes that hit the gulf coast of the US, since 2004. Nearly 275,000 metric tons have been brought into the US and property owners in Florida, Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana and a few other states have been battling the problem of contaminated drywall in homes reconstructed after the high demands placed on drywall manufacturers since that time. NORMI is now prepared to offer THE SOLUTION and guarantee that, once repaired, the problem will not return! A NORMI Certificate of Sanitization can now be offered to those contractors who are trained and certified in CDW Assessment and CDW Mitigation/Remediation protocols! This is the first step toward securing a NORMI Healthier Home Warranty guaranteeing that the indoor air quality of your property will always remain safe and comfortable for you and your family. If you are selling your home after repairs are made, what better way to prove that the problems have been resolved than to offer the potential buyer a third party confirmation and warranty? Finally, after two years of intense research, the SOLUTION is here!" D. Douglas Hoffman, Executive Director

The Contaminated Drywall Problem

The NORMIPro Management consulting team has identified, through independent published testing, the problems of contaminated drywall to be both biological and mechanical in nature, requiring a holistic solution that involves addressing all aspects of those construction materials affected by the contamination. As many as 67,000 homes throughout the effected states may be dealing with imported drywall issues and no single protocol addresses them all-until now! The problem is pervasive and requires an objective evaluation to assess the extent of the contamination. Once assessed, a specifically designed protocol can be developed to fit your specific and unique project.

Contaminated Drywall Assessment

NORMI, a not-for-profit certifying agency, has developed an assessment protocol that utilizes the expertise of well-trained assessment professionals (NORMI CCDWA) to determine the extent of the damage in each property and recommend solutions specifically and individually designed for that property. In some cases a full remediation may be necessary but, even in that case, the remediation protocol requires addressing all of the resulting damage, inside and outside of wall cavities. A single solution only masks the problem and the symptoms of "rotten-egg odors", elevated levels of H2S, potential health concerns and bacteriological contamination may, and quite possibly will, return. The assessment process insures the property-owner that the extent of the contamination has been properly evaluated so that a uniquely designed solution can then be implemented.

Contaminated Drywall Solution

NORMIPro Management provides a solution that is long-lasting and serves as the basis for an ongoing, annually renewable warranty for the security of the property-owner or the potential buyer. The NORMI Certificate of Sanitization is the first step toward providing a NORMI Healthier Home Warranty on each project that meets the approved protocol and guarantees the property-owner that symptoms will be reduced and managed over the long haul.
