We use Tim "the toolman" Miller. If you search handyman on this site you'll see he has a lot of recommendations. In 2011 he charged us $290 for the aluminum attic stairs installed plus installing plywood flooring in the attic. If you want wooden steps he's about $200 or so, I don't remember exactly. I figured with all that heat in the attic, for the long term aluminum would be a better choice. I also found that if we leave the access door pulled down about a foot when combined with a garage door screen, we've raised our thermostat in the house a degree or two.
