I love the new crawlspace access door that Marco constructed for us. Not only was this project very affordable, Marco went way above and beyond my expectations. The owner was also very helpful in the initial estimate process and I had several nice phone calls with a woman at their main office who kept me fully informed of details/arrangements. This company did everything to make me a very happy customer!

I set up an appointment for an inspection of my house for evidence of rodent intrusion, having had previous evidence of rodents in the attic and in the basement ceiling. Inspector Chris called about 2 hours before the appointment and asked if he could show up early. I agreed, although I ended up meeting him about 20 minutes after I had told him I'd be home, but he didn't mention it or seem annoyed at all. Overall Chris was very friendly and helpful.
Chris performed a thorough inspection of the basement, attic, and the entire exterior of my house, crawling under bushes and under the back porch, looking for evidence of rodent intrusion. He found a few small areas where rats could enter the house, and told me that I could save my money by fixing these myself, and explained how to do so. While on the roof above the back porch, he identified one area that needed to be filled with steel wool to prevent rodent intrusion and again recommended that I could do it myself to save money; I offered to give him some steel wool that I already had, and he agreed to install it while he was up on the roof.
In the end, Chris made sure I understood what I needed to do, and didn't find anything that he wanted to charge me for, so the visit (about an hour) was free of charge.

We love Jessica! Absolutely the most knowledgeable and down to earth woman I have come across in the field! SO happy to work with her and can't wait to work with her again.

I chose American Crawlspace Cleanouts because they do the cleanout and rodent access seal out work on one day. They also set traps that day to ensure no further rodent activity. After a week they verify there has been no rodent access. After verification of no rodent activity, they return and complete the installation.

Very detailed, and long initial inspection. Very thorough for all aspects in regards to insulation (type, amount, cost, length of work, and location), and for pest control (including vapor barrier replacement, checking for insect or rodent damage, cost for routine maintenance, types of insecticides used, and interval of service).
They were more than willing to work with us in regards to cost, payment plans, and Angie's list discount.
They were punctual, and their people were very thorough, and careful, both for themselves and our house.
We are happy with all they did.

I had a concern about my attic and when I called they said they would come out and do a free inspection of both the attic and crawlspace and give an estimate for any work needed. Chris came within the scheduled time and did the inspections. He said there was no current problem with the attic but pointed out some current and potential problems in the crawlspace. He said he would send an estimate. I received it on the 19th and am reviewing it.

I got two bids and this was about $200 higher but Mark, the estimator, was very knowledgeable and explained everything in great detail. I knew exactly what I would be getting and he and prepared the estimate in a very professional manner. Mark told me that I was eligible for Puget Sound Energy rebates for insulating the floor and that American Crawlspace would deal directly with PSE. The amount of the rebates was deducted from the invoice, sparing me the need to apply for the rebates myself. The other company didn't mention PSE rebates at all. I'm pretty sure the other company would have done a good job but the extra confidence I got from the way the estimate was prepared was worth the slightly higher price. The 3-man team arrived exactly when they said they would and completed all the work by mid-afternoon. Since then, I got underneath the house and inspected the work and everything was done exactly as described.

The initial work went well and we were pleased. We retained the pest control service for a year and no problems. Then another year later, after our warranty had run out, we had rats again. I looked and they had pulled out wire mesh and spray foam that had been used around the crawlspace access door. I called them to tell them of my problem and mentioned that I didn't think that repair was done properly in that area. They promptly called me back and the owner came out to look at the problem and agreed. At no charge to us, he sent someone out to fix the problem.. No more rats! So nice to be treated so well by a company!

Impressed with the result.
After a timely followup Chris came out to check my crawlspace and make recommendations. American Crawlspace Cleanouts is the third crawlspace cleaning company to bid for the work, and when he discussed his findings, I was surprised at how low key he was. No pressure, no sales pitch, not recommending things I didn't need.
American Crawlspace beat both of the others WITHOUT me sharing the other bids. I'm not kidding. Just their regular pricing, which included replacing the crawlspace door (which was rotted and hard to remove/replace), and replacing the vapor barrier, with cleanup. Quite fair and significantly lower than the competition. I got the sense that they were a smaller company that was hungry for business and reputation; hard to find out here in Western Washington.
The other thing that impressed me is that Chris made it clear that I didn't have any pest issues; didn't need a sump pump simply because of some small water pools; didn't really need any insulation work. He did recommend upping the insulation to R30 which I do plan as Phase 2, but he stressed that what I had was fine if I wasn't freezing (I'm not). The other providers were throwing in all sorts of "optional recommended" things.
The guys came out on schedule (in fact 15 minutes early), were polite and respectful. It took three guys just under 2 hours to complete the work, and I was impressed with what I saw. I do plan on eventually painting the door to match the rest of the house, just to be picky, but it's perfectly fine as-is.
Fully intend to continue using them for Phase 2 (the insulation) and have them bid for attic insulation and cleanout which was something I'd planned on doing myself because everyone was so overpriced; but if they come with a reasonable bid, I'm happy enough with their work to give them the business.

All has gone well. They provided all documentation necessary for PUD reimbursement. PUD rebate $946. More vents had to be added per PUD requirements. Not included in the original estimate, these were added at no cost. Clean up was complete everything was hauled away for disposal.

Response from American Crawlspace Cleanouts
"Thank you for your business and taking time to write a review on Angie’s List. We understand that it can be frustrating to go through the multi-step process of properly cleaning out an infested crawlspace, removing the rodent population and then re-installing the insulation. With severe infestations, this process can even take longer. The inspection for this project was performed on September 30th and we explained that it was our busy season and we were two to three weeks out. The initial cleanout of the crawlspace was performed on October 20th, within the expected time frame. All our technicians are highly trained and experienced so that every job is completed correctly. We do not hire seasonal employees during busy months as this would compromise our standard of quality. After the initial cleanout and rodent exclusion of the crawlspace, we monitored the traps for the next three weeks until all the rodents were removed. Once the crawl area was identified as rodent-free, the re-installation of the insulation was scheduled for the following week. All appointments were communicated in advance and our technicians arrived promptly at the scheduled time and performed the work specified. While our multi-step approach to restoring an infested and damaged crawlspace can take a bit longer, we have found that it does not pay to rush the process. We have performed several projects for clients who had other companies clean out their crawl area and replace the insulation without addressing the rodent infestation. Unfortunately, after only a couple years, the insulation was damaged again and in need of replacement. Our process of cleaning out an infested crawlspace includes taking care of the root of the problem - the rodents. Once the crawl area is cleaned out and exclusion work is performed, the rodents are trapped until gone. Only then do we re-install the insulation. We also warranty the crawl insulation we install against damage from rodents indefinitely as long as the client remains on our recurring pest service. Thank you again for your business and please contact our office with any questions or concerns. American Crawlspace & Pest Services"

The office staff, the pest control workmen, the inspector (Chris Townsend) who provided cost estimates and supervised the work were wonderful to work with. They did an excellent and thorough job, got rid of our problems, and gave us discounts as well. The estimate was free of charge and the total cost shown here included the cost of materials, labor, crawlspace cleanup and pest control services, discounts and taxes . The workmen also cleaned up after each phase of the work was completed. They were also careful to avoid damaging shrubs when they navigated our narrow driveway with their large truck.
I would definitely hire this company again and would highly recommend them to other homeowners.

The initial bid went well and Chris was very informative, answering any and all questions I had.
Scheduling was fine with Julie who kept me informed all along the way, including working around some schedule conflicts I had.
The installation team showed up on time (early, in fact) and the job was done in a couple hours. They were very careful about laying down protective plastic on the floors and walls and you could hardly tell they'd been there once they left. The team lead, Manuel, was very communicative throughout.

Look no further! This is the company you want to hire if you are having any problems with your crawl space or attic.
They are thorough, protect your home while working and remove everything after they are done - you can hardly tell they were there. The complete staff, from Thaddeus coming out to give us a 'diagnosis' (totally honest about the current condition and recommendations for what is a priority and what can wait for later according to our budget), as well as Julie and Crystal handling the scheduling of the appointments (very easy to reach and they worked to accommodate our schedules also letting us know of cancelations and offering us the opportunity if convenient ). to the crews ( I wish I could name everyone) coming out to do the work - everyone is friendly and professional. They are prompt (even a few minutes early always arriving within the time they said they would), they start right away and both major jobs were completed earlier then the ETA I was given.
This company also works with Puget Sound Energy (PSE) so they can apply any energy rebates that you could be eligible for regarding the work that they complete -- which saved us $500 + Angie's list 10% discount for a total saved of: $629.03. They also handle all of the paperwork for the rebates so you don't need to do anything.
I can't say enough about how easy this company is to deal with and the quality of their work and how efficiently they complete the job.
