From October 23 – November 17, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s ENERGY STAR program will be sharing expert tips and resources to help you check your attic’s insulation level and take actions to enjoy a more comfortable, energy-efficient home.
Follow the hashtag #RuleYourAttic on Facebook and Twitter, or visit ENERGY STAR for expert advice with do-it-yourself tips and suggestions for working with a contractor.

What do you do if ENERGY STAR recommends hiring a contractor? Check your local area for companies with good references and reviews. According to Maryland Department of Labor’s O’Connor, “Too often, we see that homeowners who hire the cheapest contractor end up paying the most money when they fall victim to an unlicensed contractor.” Complete Home Solutions is certainly an extremely accredited insulation contractor and would love to come out and help you Rule Your Attic!
