crawlspace cleanup and replace insulation, vapors
Experience and Good Commentsreplace insulation and vapors looks good.they did the preparation works and replace the insulation and vapors as expected.
Not-So-Good Comments
the cleanup part horrible,, looks like they don't event did the cleanup. I get into the crawlspace and check after they told me all work done. and I can easily find mice feces, which is what I most expected to be cleanup things,,, then they come back and just cleaned up what I point at,,,
I would expect the initial inspector to come back check if all works have been done correctly.

Redo all floor insulation, duct insulation and vapor barrier. Seal holes with concrete on foundations for pest control.
Experience and Good CommentsThe crawl space insulation was old. I quoted 3 companies and they all suggested to redo the whole insulation. One company's price is about $3500, Crawl Space Cleaning Pros is about $5000 and another company is about $6000. I chose Crawl Space Cleaning Pros because they has a good review on both Angie's List and Yelp. They did a good job.
Not-So-Good CommentsMy crawl space entrance is inside the house so their work leave dirt inside. The estimator didn't really measure the size of the foundation but get the number from king county website instead. But that number is not the correct size.

Crawlspace cleanout, replace insulation, rodent proofing
Experience and Good CommentsHad them clean out huge crawlspace area, replace insulation and seal gaps that critters can get in. Their quote was the lowest among 3 that I got. However, the reason that I hired them was due to the estimator who explained the work needed (also showed photos that he took). It took 5 guys from 8am to 5pm to complete the work. They closed off areas from the crawlspace access to outside via our garage using plastic film during the work and cleaned up everything afterwards. The guys who did the cleanout took before and after pictures and showed them at the end of the day. They also took care of the PSE rebate that I qualified for using better insulation. Overall, it was a good experience.

Attic clean out and re-insulation (~800 s.f. Cellulose R-49). Remove existing insulation in attic. Air sealing and install baffles at every eave. Prescriptive duct seal in crawlspace
Experience and Good Comments
Very professional estimator who put full gear on and went into both attic and crawlspace and presented a detailed quote. They were the only contractor (out of 4 contractors) who offered to remove the existing insulation which was dirty after so many years. On the installation day 3 guys came with a big truck. They did very good preparation work by building a plastic tunnel to make sure no dust or dirt can get into other area of the house. They took two guys ~3hrs to get out the existing insulation out, do air sealing and install baffles. The 3rd guy was working in crawlspace.They also fixed one broken screen for me. Blowing in new insulation took ~1hr. The workers were friendly and working hard. Btw they take all kinds of credit cards
3/2016 Update
I found birds in the attic a while back and then I called them. The estimator came and did a fix inside attic. However the issue was still there. Another guy came and found 3 possible entries outside and he fixed all of them. This was free of charge because it was in the warranty. I uploaded a picture of the guy fixing the vent screen.

Crawl space cleaning, insulation, and sealing
Experience and Good Comments
Marcel is a home inspector himself and very professional. He provided me with free quot and help inspect the house at the same time, gave superb suggestions for fixes that's in line with our other home inspector Michael O'Handley.
The price he quote was also very reasonable and he gave discount for Angie's list.
He was very responsible person and some to check up on work and made sure the project is finished to customer's satisfaction.
