John, I can give you the name of the guy that did my attic, it was pretty reasonable, and they worked efficiently, as was the plaster guy I used upstairs if you don't want to patch the holes yourself....
thoughts?

The foil will act like a vapor barrier trapping moister in the insulation. The vapor barrier always goes to the heated side of the insulation.
