The Crawlspace Crew was created by Dillon Rivera and Harlan Gross, long-time friends who have been working in the vicinity of one another for many years. As time passed, they gained the managerial experience required to run large crews and even whole companies. At that point it was only natural that they go into business together in the area where they had a combined 11 years of experience: restoration. They have been serving the Portland/Salem areas for all these years and are committed to providing top-notch service for many years to come.
"I contracted with this company at the beginning of May. Their original estimate was discounted to $4k from $4700. Upon having the work done they found an issue that would cost an additional $500. They did not complete the work and said they would call and schedule to complete. The next day they call me and say that they estimated my crawlspace at 450 Sq ft for an 1800 Sq ft 2 story home and my crawlspace is actually 900sq ft and they wanted an additional $3400 but since this was completely their error they would do it for $1900. Considering these are professionals and the owner is the one that quoted me, I expect accurate measuring. Also, why did they not mention this information while at my home? Lastly, Harlan, the owner admitted to them having multiple problems with estimating. Either the team needs to be re-trained or put on performance improvement plans. Underestimating a space by 50% is not quality work. "

Many major home improvement retailers offer free machine rentals when you purchase a minimum quantity of insulation material, often 20 to 30 bags. These promotions vary by location and season, so calling ahead to confirm current offers is recommended. Be sure to understand any time limitations that apply to these free rentals, as they may restrict you to a specific return window, often 24 hours from checkout.
For most residential attics under 1,500 square feet, a standard consumer-grade blower available at rental centers will provide adequate performance. Larger spaces or projects requiring greater insulation depth may benefit from higher-capacity equipment.
When consulting with the rental provider, mention your attic's square footage, desired insulation depth, and accessibility conditions to receive appropriate equipment recommendations for your specific situation.
DIY installation saves between $160 and $560 in labor costs for standard attic installations requiring four to eight hours of work. These savings must be weighed against equipment rental fees of $50 to $210 per day and the value of your personal time. For more complex installations like wall insulation, which can require 20+ hours of professional labor (costing $800 or more), the potential savings increase substantially, though so does the project complexity.
While there's a learning curve, most homeowners can master the basics with some practice. Key techniques include maintaining consistent material flow into the hopper, controlling hose direction effectively, and preventing clogs in the system.
Starting in less visible areas allows you to refine your technique before moving to more prominent spaces. Thoroughly reviewing the equipment manual and watching instructional videos beforehand significantly improves first-time success rates.
Standard rental periods provide 24 hours of use, though specific terms vary by provider. Some locations calculate this as a calendar day, while others track a full 24-hour period from checkout time. Clarify the exact return deadline when renting, and plan your project timeline accordingly. Late returns often incur additional daily charges at the full rental rate, which can quickly increase your project cost if not managed carefully.
