MWC is currently accepting applications from independent home inspectors interested in becoming certified to provide inspections for the Dryvit national class action settlement and any future class action settlements in which Moisture Warranty Corporation is a participant. MWC-Certified inspectors will also be eligible for future non-settlement inspections that are a part of its growing  warranty business.

 

 

Costs – Two components are required to perform MoistureFree inspections. The ReportMaker Pro/DC Companion software, used for all reporting, is priced at $395. The MoistureFree training and certification program costs $395. The two can be purchased together for $695 which represents a savings of $95. This covers the cost of a video-based training film (VHS Video) and the ReportMaker Pro/DC Companion software. For those individuals who have already purchased the ReportMaker Pro software, the training video and certification testing are available at a cost of $295.

Certification Process –

  1. Complete MoistureFree Warranty Inspector Certification/Training Order Form and provide prerequisite credentials: information sheet on your company including certifications and experience, and a copy of a recent inspection.

  2. Purchase MoistureFree Warranty Inspection and Repair Video Training Series.

  3. Receive training materials from Moisture Warranty Corp. Training materials will include a Certification Number for access to testing.

  8. For those who do not qualify, an e-mail will be sent indicating those questions missed and a new certification number (your password to retake the test).  Candidates will be allowed to take the test twice at no additional fee.  Should additional testing be required, these test sessions will cost $95.00 each additional time.

  9. Upon certification, the inspector’s name will be added to the MoistureFree Warranty list of certified inspectors.
