BACKGROUND:

The above referenced case is a contractor complaint filed on August 7, 2015, against Respondent, Thimothy Sowell d/b/a Sowell Roofing Company, Inc. Ms. Cynthia Trimble, Complainant/Homeowner, is contesting the December 2, 2015 decision of the Contractor Competency Board wherein it found lack of probable cause that Respondent violated a Code or statute. The Board announced its decision to dismiss the case based upon evidence presented that Respondent obtained a permit; the roof repair project passed final inspection; and no proven Code Violations exists.
