Well this is for Mike especially, I, just, a thought maybe the licensing if not repealed could of been a start to improve the Home Inspector’s position and would make a statement but I was wrong and I admit it. I sat down with my wife and we talk about everything going on and she said why? You have worked so hard at your trade and made forty two years of always caring and helping others succeed in this field. The way Florida gave licensing away was a insult to you and your trade that you love so much. Either way you will not be hurt by this you earned the respect that made you what you are today.
I have a question specifically as related to the wind mit inspections. We currently are able to provide the home inspection license # on the wind mit form and the wording was to have been changed on the form but never was. The revokation of the licencing program and requirement will not revoke the validity of the licenses aready issued(mine expires like all yours in 2012). Will we be able to continue to issue these reports? The next question is who knew what was coming at OIR.
If they take these away again it will hurt operators who lack the GC licenses. I think an appropriate action for all the associations would be to climb on OIR’s back and ride them until they let us continue to do them.
Well then, I am glad I didn’t or wasn’t the guy issueing that compliance report! I was just doing a favor and taking the photos. John, did you note the interior cieling cover plate on the exterior box for the garage light fixtures that were not installed?

I can most definitely see a contractor needing a license. Its a public safety issue. I have been in the construction industry for 20 years. Some things I have seen while remodeling have utterly dropped my jaw on the floor. Previous work was obviously not licensed. Wires run under aluminum thresholds, bearing walls removed with no support, etc.
