Insulation recommendations

Anyone had insulation installed recently and care to share price and how many sq m.

Also any recommendations for companies to install or avoid.

No recommendations other than to personally climb into the roof space and check their work before they leave. Installers have a habit of not putting the batts out the very edges of the ceiling where its hard to get to. You cannot see that they have left it out unless you get up and crawl right to the edges and look.

Am a ceiling fixer and R 4.1 is the most common standard ceiling inso. A lot of the big ceiling companies will supply and install, there are also several guys out there that specialise in inso supply and install. Ceiling Solutions is a big Perth company that do insulation!

We used earthwool instead of pink batts. Gee it makes a difference !! Looking up window film next as its so much cheaper than double glazing...

I've seen the Earth wool Batts on sale at Bunnings (I'm seriously considering DIY depending on cost of install).
