After much, much preparation (reinforcing horizontal trusses,ridge blocking and reinforcement, pipe removal, roof patches, skylight installation, wall framing, and brick repair 'til the wee hours of morning the night before) -- the attic insulation was blown in -- TWICE in December. Really a third time would be nice, but that's never going to happen. NO, we will NOT recommend this contractor.... GRRRRR....
Before:
DARK! COLD! DRAFTY!
After:
BRIGHT!
YELLOW!
Much, much warmer and well, only drafty through remaining exposed bricks (more brickwork to come).
Phew. One thing down. What next??
