Let Ace and Sons Insulation provide your home with blown-in insulation

Dear Glenn: I noted in an earlier column you recommend blown-in cellulose insulation for attics. Will you recommend an installer in the Northville-Livonia area?

Robert, via e-mail

Dear Robert: I would place a call to Ace & Sons Insulation, (888) 500-4223, www.aceandsons.com. They have been serving the Metro Detroit area since 1981. Remember to inquire about the many tax credits that you can receive from the state of Michigan utilities program plus federal and state programs.
