Is $800 to insulate two crawl spaces and attic touch ups a fair price?
Project Details
The homeowner is looking to insulate three crawl spaces (approximately 250-300 sq ft each) and an attic. One crawl space needs touch-ups, one has missing insulation, and one has no insulation. The attic requires minor touch-ups. The homeowner is skeptical of the lowest bid and noted that the highest bidder specifically mentioned maintaining proper venting.
