Attic Insulation

Insulation was previously at 3 inches, which is much lower than industry standards. Inspector recommended at least 10 inches. I called Metro Insulation which was a referral from Peggy from work. Work was done within 2 hours and cost $1000 and he added it to 22 inches. It looks terrible, like a Christmas display gone wrong. If we decide to finish the attic it would have to be removed and the insulators can pick up the material back up. He said I did not need extra ventilation.

Cost: $1000.00

Shelves

Needed to add additional shelves in the linen closet and in one of the kitchen cabinets. We found similar colored wood at Home Depot and asked the cutting staff to match size of samples we brought in. Both shelves were made of composite wood.
