Can I install attic insulation myself or should I hire a professional?
You can install basic attic insulation yourself if the attic is dry, accessible, and you follow manufacturer instructions. Hire a professional if you have moisture stains, ice dams, air leaks, recessed lights, lots of wiring/ducts, or limited access. A pro can air-seal, set proper ventilation baffles, protect fixtures, and reach tight areas for consistent R-values. Many Nashua and Manchester homes choose pros for faster, safer results. Exact pricing depends on inspection; a technician will confirm costs on site.
