Minneapolis Attic Insulation

Have to insulate the attic in my duplex (frost forming on the underside of roof causing a leak).  I got a bid from the people we had used for our own house.  They were fantastic (we had shopped around for bids at the time and they were the cheapest) but they quoted me $2700.  Looks like the average (on home advisor) is half that.  Just wondering if anyone has experience with negotiating/modifying a plan to get decent insulation with moisture barrier blown in without spending that much.  Thank you!

I ran a lawn care and landscaping business on the side last year and Homeadvisor was the absolute worst company to work with for lead generation, they have a super high pressure sales team to get contractors on their site.  Their estimates are bogus and the contractors on there have been sold a sales pitch.  Others may have had good experiences with them, but that was not my experience.  Just my two cents!
