[Chat] Chat Digest, Vol 120, Issue 12

[Maya Kosok]

In terms of attic insulation, we recently worked with HELP - Home Energy
Loss Professionals - and some friends have had good experiences with Terra
Logos. If you get a home energy audit (at the subsidized rate of $100) then
you can get half the cost covered through a state rebate program. (Up to
$2k of your $4k bill can be reimbursed for all kinds of home energy
improvements including attic insulation and a whole lot more.) I definitely
recommend taking advantage of this program!!

In terms of a skylight or solar tube, we looked long and hard to get a
skylight that was also a roof hatch for easy access from our bathroom. We
ended up going with columbiaskylights.com - though if you don't need a
hatch there are lots more options out there. In terms of installation, I
highly recommend Tim Bittner - his company is Precision Roofing. He has
done a lot of roofing for us on a couple properties as well as two
different skylight installations. His number is (410) 235-5753

Hope that helps, -Maya
