Sure. You just have to find one willing to do so.

As I said before, this is not cost effective. The price a homeowner is
willing to pay for services is not commensurate with the liability
exposure.

Are you willing to pay more than $1000 so you can store some stuff in
the attic. If you are, then I might consider doing the work.
