Roof vent replacement

Needed a quick turnaround on a roof vent replacement after squirrels ate through a plastic one leaving roof open for rain and other critters. Kovar responded fast and had the work done a few days later.
First class work and will be recommending to friends and colleagues.

Fascia inspection and repair

We would like to thank Kevin for his professionalism and sincere effort in responding to our initial request for assistance. Kevin not only provided an estimated cost for the work to be completed but also provide a simple approach on how we could quickly proceed.
What was also most important for such a project was the on-site implementation of the work which was successfully done with a quality tradesman eliminating our worries. Our family sincerely appreciated the courtesy and respect. This once again is significant and is to be highly commended in todays reliable services and expectations. Overall, the work was completed with pride, in a professional manner and with care. Well done
It is greatly due to Kovar Contractings dedication, reliability and quality workmanship that we as a client customer can appreciate and trust such professional services.
We remain sincerely thankful for Kovar Contractings professional assistance.

Roof repair

I contacted Kovar Construction for a roof repair estimate in February of this year. I needed to replace the fascia, soffits, and eaves. The response was quick and a work order was prepared for the work to be done sometime in early summer. I later requested that the gable vinyl siding be replaced as well. The house looks great. Minor issues arose and were quickly resolved. Without a doubt, this company employs very skilled professionals. It is nice to see workers who take such pride in their work. I would definitely recommend this company for any work they advertise. Thank you Alex and Kevin.

Teardown and rebuild of two-storey porch

I recently had Kovar Contracting tear down and rebuild my two-story porch, and I love the results.

From the start, owner Jason impressed me with his professionalism and friendliness. He was upfront and communicative throughout the project, keeping me informed of any challenges that come with having an older house. He provided options, detailing costing and the pros and cons of each choice.

The crew at Kovar were friendly and great to work with. They were diligent, thorough, and meticulous. Their precision drew compliments from people walking by!

The project took longer than initially estimated, but some of that was due to winter weather and material delays. However, I know delays happen in any project.

Overall, I highly recommend Kovar Contracting. They delivered a beautiful, high-quality porch despite unforeseen challenges, and their communication and professionalism were top-notch.
