So, you are looking for precise, useful information?

What are you basing your 'guess' on?

Sounds like you are preparing to spend "a few hundred bucks" which might go higher. I just re-insulated a wall in my kitchen, so I know that it might go higher.

It might be useful and cheap for you to get closer than 'guess' if you're actually looking for non-anecdotal information.
