Is $6,000 to blow in insulation and add reflective barrier a fair price?
Project Details
I had contractors out to blow in 5in of insulation plus add the reflective barrier. I'm not experienced in insulation but am curious if this is pretty standard for how it should be installed? I am questioning if this is what should be expected here.
