Re: Sewer gas smell in home.
Mike,

That answer the 'what type of contractor' question I had.

Being as you are considered a 'contractor' in Oregon, I would read up on any laws and regulations governing 'contractors' (and I am sure you have) so you will be aware of certain requirements which may now apply to you.

In Florida, Chapter 95, Limitations, would put you on the hook for a maximum of 15 years, if we (HIs) were contractors.

Then there are all of the requirements in Chapter 489 which would apply ... but let's not go there.

My other question was 'what does it take to become a contractor', in this case, a 'contractor - home inspector'? What qualifications, tests, etc., or can anyone just walk in and buy a 'contractor - home inspector' license?
