Crawlspace Doctor

You would not believe the quality of the work the team did. Incredible. I wish I had before/after pictures to show, because it is simply remarkable. They were professional and did the highest quality work. Would use them again, and we have used them more than once for different jobs. Both times, cost was very reasonable and quality of work is unbelievable.

Couldn't be better.  Before: our crawlspace was damp, had mice raceways on drain lines, as well as various insect nests.  After: the crawlspace is drier (wood is still drying out) and there are no access points for unwanted visitors.
We encapsulated our crawlspace because our home has extraordinarily high energy consumption.  With very cold floors this past winter it seemed likely that a large part of the problem was the vented crawlspace.   Recent studies suggest a conditioned crawlspace is more energy efficient winter and summer and can lead to healthier indoor air.
We were researching crawlspace encapsulation techniques and companies when we developed a large plumbing leak in our crawlspace.  Mold was starting to grow on the wood near the leak.  We decided to move up the crawlspace encapsulation project without 100% certainty we would recoup the cost in energy savings.  We thought it couldn't hurt and at least we could dry out the crawlspace and stop any mold.
We called Patrick and requested his advice.  Very pleasantly surprised at his professionalism, depth of knowledge and training in crawlspace encapsulation technology as well as mold remediation.  Patrick came out for a site visit and put in concrete terms what we had learned about this technology.  He identified more leaking pipes, a dryer vent with a hole that was pumping humid air into the crawlspace, poorly draining gutters and downspouts, sweating lines that were keeping insulation wet, lot's of mouse foot prints (we had been catching them in the kitchen) and he reviewed possible changes.  Low-key, fact based, no pressure.  He knows what he's doing.
We hired Patrick and his team to do the work.  Hard working, polite, up beat.  Courteous and helpful.  A pleasure to have them on the property.  The end result surpasses our expectations. Clean, dry and getting dryer. Cold floors are now warmer.  (Energy savings are likely but it will take time to tell what the impact is.  Patrick, to his credit never claimed any savings.  He indicated that some people report this but it's hard to make a definitive statement about any potential savings for a particular house.)
Patrick and I inspected the finished results and now that the space is much brighter and cleaner (highly reflective white vapor barrier) a number of developing problems were easily observed.  Our house is roughly six years old so our crawlspace before was in pretty decent shape, yet those developing problems confirmed that for us this was the right decision and right contractor.
A job well done.  Thank you CrawlSpace Doctor!
