ROOF REPAIR - BLOWN OFF SHINGLES

Got a problem with the roof in May; blown off shingles; a fair patch.
FRI over night. Just one phone call made it.
A live person on the other side - a rarity these days, isn't it -
very knowledgeable and professional, recall, it was the owner,
Mr. Kovar. Appointment - fixed within a minute.
After about an hr (might have been 2 max) a young roofer showed up.
Also acting professionally, explained what is needed after a recon of the roof and went to work. Was watching him, knew exactly what he was
doing. Within 'bout an hr the roof was fixed, looked as if nothing happened. Debris cleaned. No mess left.
Was the first on the whole street with roof fixed before noon after
over night storm. What else to say;
bloody well done-bloody good show. Thanks to Kovar Contracting.
Definitely recommend. Peter G; Kanata

Roof replacement, townhome, shingles

Great team, very receptive to our feedback, Jason has a very dedicated group of guys that did a great job. They communicated clearly about scheduling and planning even though the weather was not cooperating. They showed up early and worked diligently all day, the debris from the job was all cleaned up very well by the time they left and the roof looks great!

DEFINITELY WOULD RECOMMEND FOR ROOFING NEEDS

Called Kovar as we had some roof damage from the wind storm a week ago. Jason, who answered the phone, explained that he could send someone out within the next few days. Surprised, the roofer (Jamie) showed up today - same day! Jamie was very polite and explained what he was going to do. He quickly fixed our area of missing shingles and checked others in the area just to make sure others were not loose. He cleaned up his debris and gave me a full report on what he did and the overall shape of our roof. These 2 guys were above and beyond my expectations, and when it comes time to replace our roof, I have no doubt I will return to them to complete the job

Attic insuilation

Kovar was very knowledgeable about the product. They informed us about the features and benefits of fiberglass insulation. A throrough inspection of the attic was done before offering a quotation and photos were taken to show us where some of the builders deficiencies were located. All gaps around pipes were filled in with foam insulation and baffles were upgraded. Workmen were efficient and left the house very clean.

Vent and insulation work

Jason's team was professional and great to deal with. Came and checked out the problem quickly and identify the issue right away: Leaky roof was due to bad vent location, and ice built up under roof and making the insulation wet. Provided a quote and came back again quickly and to fix everything properly. Scott and Jamie and team are all very professional and did a great job. I would recommend them if you have similar issue.

Soffit Repair

Repaired 2nd story soffits on our house immediately, in -30 cold of January. Very thankful and grateful. Polite and professional and prompt. A+.

Job was done within 8 hours of calling. Courteous and professional workmanship. The extreme cold weather was a big complication, especially with a high ladder in the snow/ice. Thank you. Scott&Di

Excellent workmanship - always!

After 2 roofs and a skylight install, we would recommend Jason and his crews to anyone looking for his services. Yard, driveway and evestrough cleanup was great as were the installs themselves.
