As an inspector, when do I have to show proof of E&O insurance?

I think my inspector was negligent in performing the inspection. My brother-in-law says I might be able to recover a judgment. Do I have to file a complaint first?

If a licensed professional inspector is conducting a commercial inspection, is he or she required to use the inspection report form promulgated by TREC? Do the Standards of Practice apply?

As a licensed inspector I would like to advertise that my company performs wood destroying insect inspections. Neither I nor anyone in my company is a licensed wood destroying insect inspector, but we recommend or provide one if requested by the client.

I am a licensed professional inspector. I am also a licensed real estate sales agent. May I both inspect the home for and sell to the same person?

Is it true that home inspectors licensed in Texas, cannot inspect plumbing in a home nor report plumbing deficiencies in the TREC inspection report? Can the inspector advertise that he inspects plumbing?

Does TREC require the use of a “contract” for inspections which would outline the responsibilities of the parties to the contract or have a form inspectors can use?

On my inspection report, the inspector reported certain things in the house as “safety hazards” or “code violations”. Can TREC give me information about what codes the inspector is referring to?

It appears that the inspector who inspected my home before my purchase missed major termite infestation. The damage from the termites has cost me thousands of dollars to repair. Shouldn’t the inspector have noted this problem on his report?

I recently purchased an older home that was inspected before the purchase. After living in the home a few weeks, the dishwasher started leaking and had to be replaced. Shouldn’t the inspector have told me this unit was about to fail?
