The Chinese Drywall Complaint Center is aggressively expanding its investigation of a specific type of imported Chinese drywall called Knauf Tianjin into South Carolina, North Carolina, along with the nearby states of Georgia, Alabama, Florida, and Louisiana. The group is saying, "Homeowners in South Carolina, North Carolina, and Georgia mistakenly may not think they are effected by toxic Chinese drywall-they are, and we need to get them identified-especially if the home has a specific type of imported Chinese drywall called Knauf Tianjin." The Chinese Drywall Complaint Center is saying, "Our biggest fear is that only 1 out of 30 Knauf Tianjin drywall homes have been identified by the Federal Court in New Orleans. If these homeowners do not get identified, they may be up the creek." For more information homeowners can call the Chinese Drywall Complaint Center anytime at 866-714-6466, or contact the group via its web site at Http://ChineseDrywallComplaintCenter.Com (PRWeb Mar 9, 2010)
