Attic Insulation

From initial assessment to completion this company's reps were knowledgeable, helpful & on-time. They solved some specific problems we knew about, then identified & proposed solutions for some we didn't. The price was fair and the bonus was ... they cleaned up inside & out before they left! Would definitely use this company again.

Replacement of soffit, facia, downspouts 108 linear feet.

Kovar did an excellent job replacing our soffit, facia, and downspouts. Service was fast and very responsive. The work looks great, very professional and they did exactly what they said they would. Work was completed on time and service was transparent. Jason even took a phone call on his birthday to help me bump up the dates because we had a squirrel problem. Thank for all the hard work and flexibility!

Best communication and advice from a contractor

Choosing the right contractors is difficult. We have used many and this was the first time with Kovar. Jason and the team were very honest about what was needed and what WASN"T- also how to keep costs down. I don't think I can recall a service that was this easy to phone, email, or keep in contact with... let alone a big contracting company. Our job was not huge, but they still treated us like a priority and made sure all questions were answered. Kyle the installer and sales rep is EXTREMELY knowledgeable, friendly and honest. A real pleasure and took a lot of care with our skylight install. He even went back to the store to make SURE our replacement shingles matched even though they were discontinued. I will definitely be using their services again.

We definitely recommend them.

Bathroom renovation

My husband and I were very pleased with the bathroom reno. The work is excellent and the cost stayed very close to the estimate. The workers were very polite and explained all the steps to us. The work was done in a sufficient amount of time and did not drag out.

Emergency Ice Dam and Snow Removal

We contacted Kovar Roofing as we were very concerned about the huge ice dams and snow load on the roof of our home. We had called several other companies but had no response. Kovar got back to us right away and were able to come the same day. They did a great job under difficult circumstances on our very steep and complex roof. It took them two hours, so the cost was higher than we had hoped, but we are happy they came quickly and took away our worry about potential water damage in our home.
