Why you should install or replace your home's insulation?
Here at Northwest Crawl Space Services, we find that the most common reason is animal damage to the insulation.
Rats, mice, raccoons, and possums are common animals in our state. They like to use insulation to warm up and nest in it, causing significant damage and filling it with bacteria. This can happen in your attic, crawl space, or even inside your walls.
- Old material that isn’t up to new codes or has excess wear and tear.
- Poorly installed insulation that reduces its efficiency.
- Water and moisture damage to the insulation
- Missing insulation from the original construction.
- Animal damage to the insulation
Air Seal for Your Home
To maximize the energy efficiency of the insulation project, gaps that leak air must be eliminated before the new insulation is installed. Northwest Crawl Space Services performs an air seal service as part of every attic or crawl space insulation project.
In this service, we look for any penetrations in the ceiling or floor where plumbing, ducting, or electrical goes through and seal them to prevent air leaks.
If you notice high energy bills, difficulty keeping your house warm or cool, rodents in crawl spaces, or believe your insulation needs to be updated, call Northwest Crawl Space Services.

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.
Frequently asked questions
What does R-value mean in insulation?
The R-value measures the thermal resistance of insulation material. It indicates how effectively the insulation resists heat flow, with higher R-values signifying better insulation performance and greater resistance to heat transfer.
Can I always reach the required r-value?
No, in cases of older homes that were built under old codes, some of the structures may not allow enough depth to accommodate the thickness of insulation required according to today’s standard codes.
How can insulation services improve the resale value of my home?
Insulation services can increase the resale value of your home by making it more energy-efficient, comfortable, and attractive to potential buyers. Well-insulated homes typically command higher resale values due to lower utility costs and improved overall comfort and livability.
What types of insulation materials do you use, and how do you choose the right one for my home?
We offer a variety of insulation materials, including fiberglass, cellulose, mineral wool, and foam sleeves insulation. Our selection is based on factors such as energy efficiency, durability, environmental impact, budget and specific requirements of your home. We assess your insulation needs and recommend the most suitable material accordingly.
How do I know if my home needs insulation services?
Signs that your home may need insulation services include uneven indoor temperatures, high energy bills, drafts, moisture issues, and excessive noise transfer. Our team can conduct a thorough assessment of your home to determine its insulation needs and recommend appropriate solutions to improve energy efficiency and comfort.
What are the differences between blow-in and batt insulation?
Blow-in insulation and batt insulation are two common types of insulation used in buildings, each with its own set of advantages and applications.
Blow-in insulation, also known as loose-fill insulation, consists of small particles of fiber, foam, or other materials. It is applied using a blowing machine, making it ideal for insulating areas with irregular shapes or hard-to-reach spaces such as attics or walls with obstructions. This method provides better coverage in difficult-to-access areas and can be more effective at reducing air leakage.
On the other hand, batt insulation is composed of pre-cut panels or rolls made from materials like fiberglass or rock wool. These panels are installed by fitting them between studs, joists, or rafters. Batt insulation is more straightforward to install and is commonly used in standard wall cavities and attics with ample space.
Ultimately, the choice between blow-in and batt insulation depends on factors such as the specific requirements of the project, the structure of the building, and budget considerations. Both types of insulation have their advantages and are suitable for different applications.
