Nolan Kienitz Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 Not a wise thing to be inspecting in Texas with an expired license. TREC will catch up with you. Below clip was in the list of fines from the November TREC Advisor newsletter that was released yesterday. Click to Enlarge 33.81 KB .

Scottpat Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 That should get somebody's attention! Woof, that is one of the largest fine I have ever seen issued to a HI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolan Kienitz Posted November 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 Another HI out of Spring (near Houston) got fined for $2K or so as he did not make note in his report that the attic access was not sufficient to remove/install a furnace/A-C system. Mind you this is a "code specific" item and TREC Legal fined him as part of the new Penalty Matrix that we are working under. TREC Legal did not specifically state the code item, but their verbiage quoted a reference to the TX SOP that has some vague language. He was also cited for not having formally advised TREC of the name of the company he was doing business as an inspector. Can't just have your name ... you also have to formally advise TREC of the name of your company so they can cross-link and associate. The Penalty Matrix also allows TREC to fine you for not advising of your current address and contact information and on and on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
