well & septic inspection in Ohio

[tvanvranken]

I am expanding my business into well & septic inspection. I need to know from anyone who does the same in Ohio what the requirements are. I know what to inspect, I just need to know what the State and/or county requires of an inspector to be certified and/or licensed. I am aware that you need to be bonded, but are there other state requriements?

Thanks, todd

I personally stay away from septic systems. I refer all Septic systems to a qualified septic contractor. Too many things that come back at you. The only thing I offer that are along those lines are lateral inspections and I sub those out. As far as I know there are no state requirements. Although there may local requirements.

Start here.
