"Dan and Josh were incredible. Not only were they both friendly and extremely knowledgeable, but the were early on the day the work was to be done. They explained exactly what they were doing. They showed me progress along the way. They had recommendations and were adaptable to my schedule. The results were shocking. We live in an old lake house and really needed to improve the insulation. There were spots where there was little to no insulation and some where there was insulation but not enough. Even the first night the difference was amazing. I can't recommend Dan and Josh enough. So worth the money I spent. You need insulation hire them. I promise you will be thrilled."

"Roy was very nice and the price seemed right. Communicating was a bit difficult as you have to text or leave a message and wait for a response. He showed up as planned with a very young helper. Overall, the job was ok (a little messy looking) but an expensive piece of furniture was damaged - they did not cover it and the covers were sitting right next to it. My floors were clean before they came, after they left it was a mess. They also broke a window that was purposely removed and placed out of the way."

"Insulation really does the trick. They did leave a mess on basement floor even though Maryellenwas told it was to be taped off . She spent half the day scraping out the trough for draining as neither Ray nor Dan would return calls. We need our attics done now and Ray is not returning calls after at least half dozen. Dan finally called and said he would be out to meet with me on Friday as I am off . Didn’t show and can’t reach any one . All 4 phones have full mail boxes. Who runs a company that for Pete’s sake,!!! Guess they don’t need the business."

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.
