Anyone have any input on how much they charge for insulation installation LABOR per square foot? No tear out, just want to add some batting to my existing crawl space insulation and wonder what labor charges run.
 
really? i had my entire crawl space insulated last year for $560, 1300 square feet, that included the insulation. it took 8 guys about an hour to do. insulation inc was the company.
 
I re insulatd my crawl space a year or so ago.
Plannd to do it myself, bought the maerial at home depot...in the parking lot a shady hispanic dude comes up and says, "We insult for you?" (thats what it sounded like)
I said I was going to do it myself.
"We cheaper than you free."
So him and 2 friends did the whole house for $125 in like 4 hours and hauld all the old stuff away.
I even gave them a 12 pack as a tip.
 
We just had our garage apartment project insulated and it was right at $2000 for labor and materials. That included the walls of the garage (24'x24') and floors, walls, ceiling, and attic of the upstairs (24'x32'). I started looking at material prices, and if I was calculating right, it was almost the same price for me to buy materials as it was for them to provide materials and labor.
