My wife and I did exactly that. We were quoted almost $4000 to remove old insulation (had a coon in there years ago and didn't want any leftover coon poop) and blow in new. We chopped a zero off that by DIYing, and noticed a 5 degree difference immediately (it was late November and just above freezing). Best $400 we ever spent on our house.
