This home could alter tainted-drywall time line

The Norton home in Waterlefe Golf & River Club in Manatee County has all the telltale signs of drywall trouble. The home was built in 2002.

The home of Jim and Joan Norton, in WCI’s Waterlefe Golf & River Club, has all the telltale signs of defective drywall: blackened copper coils, pipes and wiring; failing air-conditioning coils; and a distinct odor. At first glance, the Nortons seem to be just the latest in a string of victims struggling with the tainted drywall.

But what makes the couple’s home especially notable is when it was built: 2002. The Nortons could very well turn out to be among the first owners to be sold a home built using Chinese drywall in Southwest Florida, and possibly anywhere.

The discovery could stretch out the timeline of the drywall problem, previously considered to have started in 2004, to a full seven years.
