Batting is a Much Better Roof Insulator Than Blown-In

Sorry, I can't help you with a reliable contractor but before you decide to blow in insulation, you might consider batting instead.
Blown-in insulation never stays in place and consequently, you end up with areas with sparse or no coverage (because it moves) and/or areas where the blown-in stuff flattens out.. You can get far better coverage (up to even R-30) with batting which never moves or changes.
You don't need to pay a contractor to do this. You can probably find a handyman to install the batting or if you're a little handy, you can do it yourself if you dress for the job properly.
