Attic insulation

Kovar (Scott and an assistant) arrived in good time on January 9th. Scott explained very clearly to me that I could have a just as satisfactory R-60 insulation with new PRO PINK blown Fiberglass insulation over a foam base as I would with all-foam insulation. Scott took time first of all to report to me on the state of my attic as he found it before installing the insulation. Also during the work he explained the different stages such as the sealing of openings in the attic floor where wires, pipes, flues etc. entered, also about the installation of baffles and batt blockers and the need to keep the soffits clear. He afterwards showed me photos of the completed seals, insulation etc., all of which was very neatly done. He also explained the other steps undertaken. Scott and his assistant were very friendly and polite, and they thoroughly cleaned up the entry area to the attic afterwards. The job was finished in a shorter time than I expected. I am very satisfied with Kovar's work. Thank you.

Sun tunnel replacement

We had an original tube light in our 1988 built home which leaked but which is no longer available. Jason at Kovar Construction sourced a sun tunnel as they are now known. Although larger it serves our needs better by allowing in more light

Attic insulation job

This is the second time I have hired Kovar and am very pleased with their service! This time I had insulation blown into my attic! Scott showed up right on time and both his partner and Scott were very professional and went about their work with minimal disruption to my home! Upon completion, they left the place nice and tidy! Thanks Scott and Kovar Contracting for your great service!

Drywall Repair

This is not the first time I’ve used Kovar contracting for home renovations/repairs. I required some drywall repair and Jason from Kovar was able to schedule the work in a short timeframe. Kevin from Kovar did a great job and was also able to fit some additional work that came up during inspection. I will use Kovar again in the future.

Siding and roof repair

I had a chimney removed from my house and hired Kovar Contracting to repair the house where the chimney had been. This involved repairing the side of the house and the siding as well as the gap in the roof. Kovar was a pleasure to deal with, always prompt in replying to emails, and did the work on schedule. Kevin was professional and courteous in all his dealings with me. I requested one minor adjustment to the work after it was completed and Kovar replied to my email immediately, and Keving came back to do the work that week.

New Roof

Jason and the team re-did the roof quickly and well, missed a small section but came back to finish the job without a fuss. Great quality and professionalism for the price.

Insulation and Skylight

Very quick, solid work for both insulation top up in attic and skylight replacement. One of the few companies willing to install a skylight without doing a full roof reshingling during their busy season. Quote was very comprehensive and reasonable. Overall very happy!
