The heating bills for 2-family townhouse have been quite high this winter, because we have to crank the furnace so the upstairs apartment gets heat. One of the heating specialists we had in suggested that we get our roof insulated, as most heat is lost thru the roof. When we bought the house in July we had the roof resurfaced, but we didn’t think to insulate at the time (and the roofers and contractor never suggested it). It is a hundred year old, brownstone-type house with no attic. I have heard bad things about the blown-in insulation. Has anyone had the roof of their brownstone insulated. Can anyone recommend a company to do this? Many thanks!
