Roof and soffit replacement - storm damage

Jason and his team saved our house - they dropped everything following the Sept. 2018 tornado and made sure our roof was sealed up and secure for my family. They followed up later by replacing our roof, attic insulation, soffit and gutters. They did a fantastic job, were very friendly and willing to problem solve with me as we were navigating the aftermath of the tornado. Would highly recommend the Kovar team! Thank you

Roofing project

Top 6 reasons to hire kovar to redo your tired roof. Jamie. Kyle. Ben. Corbin
Jason and Cory. These guys are superb. Professional. Accurate. On time. Hard working Polite. And fun. Service was completely done to the highest standards. Communication with Jason was stellar and always prompt. Good honest quote. Quality advice. Not the cheapest quote. But the best job. Remember . It's not the quote or the shingle so much as it is the roofer. These guys are 10s in that department. Impeccable installation and cleanup. Choose Kovar you wont be disappointed. And make sure to ask for kyle and Jamie's crew.

Soffit repair

Two panels of soffit blown off by windstorm.
Called several companies on a Thursday looking for quick repair to discourage invasion by raccoons and squirrels. Kovar was only one able to respond by Friday, others were Monday at minimum. Repair was quick and efficient, first thing Friday morning. Price was minimum service charge, and $50 cheaper than quote from another company that I contacted.

Replacement of Fascia

Jason and his team Jamie and Brad responded to my online request in 24 hours. Jamie called and Brad was there in an hour. There were some issues with the fascia fit which was my problem and they came back the next day and got the repair done after adjusting the piece in their shop. It was at the peak of a 3 story home so a bit of a challenge. I could not find another firm in the city to do it. The price was their minimum for a call so although high, was understandable. Based on my experience, I would highly recommend the team at Kovar.

Upstairs and basement renovations

In January 2019 we had Kovar contracting renovate our upstairs. Had our old carpets removed and they installed hardwood floors new doors and trim with new updated baseboards and fresh paint. The upstairs is an amazing transformation with a new stair railing as well!
End of March we had the team come back to renovate our old basement. From head to toe it was redone! It looks like we live in a brand w home now! Kevin, Chuck and Brad are a great team and work hard!
Thanks guys for the amazing job! Looks absolutely stunning!

Attic insulation and bathroom fans upgrade

We had Kovar in for two projects that involved our attic. Prior to the work being done Jason was very responsive to all questions and concerns I had.

They first came in and fixed the way our bathroom fans were venting. They were originally venting into the soffit vent which was causing moister and mold in the attic. Kovar added two exhaust terminations to the roof for our bathrooms as well as replacing the fans with new ones we provided.
The next day Scott and his team came to air seal the attic and top up the insulation.

Overall we’re very happy with the work they did. We no longer have condensation in the bathroom during showers, and the insulation job has left our top level feeling much more comfortable on cold days.

Prompt and excellent service.

I required a siding repair from storm damage. I contacted Kovar via their website and someone was in touch with the very next day to tell me about their service and to set up an assessment appointment. The assessment was complete the next day and work was complete within the week. Service from Jason and Alex was alway prompt and courteous. I have already recommended this company to friends and will most certainly call them first next time I need a home repair.

Eavestrough and fascia repair and replacement

We recently required some unexpected repair and replacement work done for our eavestroughs and fascia. Alex from Kovar Contracting came out the day after I called them to give us a quote and had the work done before a couple of companies even returned my call. He went beyond our expectations providing excellent work. He was friendly, helpful and very pleasant to work with. I would definitely recommend him. They also came up the least expensive of the 3 quotes provided to us by other companies. Thank you!
