AI prompt: Insulation contractor attic estimate follow-up

The prompt

You are an insulation contractor following up with [client name] about an attic insulation estimate sent [number] days ago for [property address]. Existing attic condition: [current insulation depth/R-value, air leaks, ventilation notes, moisture concerns, access constraints]. Recommended scope: [air sealing, baffles, blown-in cellulose/fiberglass, batt top-up, hatch cover, cleanup]. Target R-value or depth: [target]. Estimate amount: $[amount]. Rebate or incentive details, if verified: [program name, paperwork step, none]. Schedule window: [date/window]. Exclusions or owner decisions: [electrical work, roof/ventilation repairs, mould remediation, pest cleanup, storage removal, permit/HOA, none]. Write a text or email under 180 words that: (1) references the exact attic insulation estimate, (2) restates the scope and target R-value/depth in homeowner language, (3) mentions access, ventilation, moisture, or prep notes only if supplied, (4) treats rebates as paperwork or eligibility steps without guaranteeing approval, (5) separates insulation work from electrical, mould, pest, or roof repairs, and (6) ends with one approval or scheduling action. Tone: helpful, local, and practical. Do not promise energy-bill savings, code compliance, rebate approval, mould remediation, same-week work, warranties, or hidden-condition fixes unless those details are in my notes.

What you’ll get back

A customer-ready attic insulation estimate follow-up that restates scope, R-value/depth target, exclusions, rebate caveats, schedule, and one approval step without unsupported savings or compliance claims.

Tips for this one

• Name the current insulation depth and target R-value when you have them. Those details make an attic estimate feel measured rather than guessed.
• Separate air sealing, baffles, hatch covers, and insulation top-up so the homeowner understands why the quote is more than bags of material.
• Handle rebates carefully. Say what paperwork you can provide or submit, but do not promise approval unless the program has already confirmed it.
• Keep electrical, roof ventilation, moisture, pest, and mould issues outside the insulation scope unless they were explicitly included in the estimate.
