Our Proven Process
Initial assessment
Our team conducts a thorough inspection of your crawl space to evaluate its condition and determine the extent of cleaning required. We identify any issues such as water damage, mold growth, or pest infestations.
Preparing the Work Area
Before starting the Cleaning process, we prepare the work area by protecting walls, floors, siding, or nearby furniture. This precaution ensures that surrounding surfaces are shielded from any potential damage during the cleaning operation.
Tear Out and Packaging
Our experts begin the removal of debris, old insulation, and other contaminants from your crawl space. Damaged or contaminated materials are safely torn out and securely packaged for disposal, ensuring no further contamination occurs.
For attic cleaning, we employ special vacuum machines to efficiently remove and collect blow-in insulation and debris into designated bags for disposal.
Sanitizing Surfaces
All surfaces within the crawl space and attic are thoroughly cleaned and sanitized using professional-grade disinfectants. We meticulously treat all surfaces to eliminate harmful contaminants.
Hauling Away Debris
Filled bags of debris are carefully transported and disposed of in accordance with local regulations and environmental guidelines. We ensure proper disposal methods to
minimize environmental impact and prevent further contamination.
After the process, your crawl space or attic is left prepared and clean, ready for the installation of fresh, clean materials, creating a welcoming environment for future work and continued use.

Highly recommend.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Thomas Roberts9 March 2023Rob and crew from NW Crawl Space did full remediation for our crawl space and attic, after finding evidence of rodents (mice) in both areas. Removed old crawl space insulation & vapor barrier, replaced heat-ducts that were damaged, & vacuumed out attic insulation and debris. Sealed openings in both areas to prevent rodents from returning. Traps set, with rodent control plan. Highly recommended!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Emily Davis3 March 2023Northwest Crawl Space Services has been honest, professional, easy to work with, and has done excellent work on my home. I first approached the company looking for someone to reinsulate and clean out my mud room crawlspace-- it is an addition to the house and is open-air. Lior came by and noted that because NWCSS specializes in fiberglass insulation, they wouldn't be able to work on this part of my house, because it would require spray foam insulation to truly be rat and weather proofed. I really appreciated this up front honesty-- two previous contractors had given me bids to reinsulate with fiberglass, never mentioning the need for spray foam, and never saying that they wouldn't be able to do a proper job. I would have paid money to some other company for a shoddy, inappropriate "solution" if Lior had not filled me in. Lior even recommended some other companies to call that specialize in spray foam! After this helpful and informative experience, I knew right away when I discovered signs of rats in my main basement crawlspace that I wanted NWCSS to be the ones to work on the problem. Lior came by to check it out and did a very thorough inspection. His manner with clients is excellent-- I never felt like my questions were being dismissed. We set a date for a crew to come by to replace rat-infested insulation, remove the improperly installed vapor barrier, clean out debris, and reinstall vapor barrier to industry standards. The crew, Patrick and Chandler, were friendly, polite, and happy to answer questions. Savannah in the office has also been very friendly and quick to answer my questions regarding logistics and payment. Overall, my experience was excellent and I will re-hire NWCSS when it comes time to reinsulate and clean out my attic crawlspace.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.jan ostrovsky6 February 2023Matan gave us a fair estimate for the crawl space re-insulation and screening, and the work was done promptly. I was pleasantly surprised when the final bill came in about 15% UNDER the estimate. It’s nice to deal with a company which has the integrity to pass those savings on.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Dan Huang26 January 2023Northwest Crawl Space is a trustful company to work with. They helped me install the French drain, replace the insulation and vapor barrier. Matan and his stuff did a great job. They will carefully protect your home when performing the job, clean the waste after the work is done, and come back to inspect if the work is good.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Scott Taylor17 December 2022We had Northwest crawlspace come out to inspect our crawlspace and they identify a lot of standing water as well as rodent activity in the insulation. As a result, we needed a full clean out of our crawlspace and new insulation, vapor barrier, drain and sump pump. The crew was professional, friendly and fast. The work was extremely well done, we recently had them come out to check everything and the technician confirmed it was one of the best installs he had seen. I would highly recommend this company to anyone.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Ricardo Salvatierra16 December 2022My experience with this company has been amazing. Lior (the owner) goes above and beyon every single aspect, super professional and always providing the best advice to avoid unnecessary expenses. They did the whole work in my crawlspace, sump pump, french drain, vapor barrier, etc... and results are great, 0 moisture. I would definitely recommend it.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Torrey Olsen15 December 2022Lior and his NW Crawl Space Services team were everything we expected in professionals! They were on time, neat, though, communicative, polite, did the job as promised and then checked back with us as promised again to ensure that the job was done!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Wayne Appler18 November 2022I had Northwest Crawl Space Services remove all my rodent infested insulation and vapor barrier. They cleaned & disinfected my crawl and installed all new insulation and a sealed vapor barrier. The workers were very diligent and and skilled in their methods. I was given a quote up front and feel that I received a quality job that was worth every penny. I am beyond pleased with the company and would highly recommend them to everyone.
