Adam and Ben have updated our 2 bathrooms to make them accessible, modern, and sleek!! > This is a company we can get behind- professional and accessible and excellent in communication. It is clear they take great pride in their work from the top down! > Thanks again for your contribution to our home! > e&jr **★★★★★ — Pat Cambridge, Dec. 2024** > Kevin from Kovar came and repaired the vinyl siding on my home that had come unsecured. He discovered that almost all the nails had come undone as they weren’t properly secured. He had to remove everything, replace a few broken pieces and reassemble it all. Kevin was polite and efficient and very knowledgable. He completed the job in good time and the cost was what was quoted. I would be happy to have Kevin, and Kovar do other work if needed in my home, > 2024-1915 **★★★★★ — Jean Lanouette, July 2024** > 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. **★★★★★ — Matt Moore, July 2024** > 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. > > Overall, I highly recommend Kovar Contracting. They delivered a beautiful, high-quality porch despite unforeseen challenges, and their communication and professionalism were top-notch. > > 2022-1142 > 2022-1174 **★★★★★ — cb2024, June 2024** > The Kovar team is professional and polite from beginning to end of the project (eavestrough replacement). Gave advanced notice to our start date, arrived exactly on time and began work immediately. Cleaned up well after, product installed perfectly, no leaks or issues but confidently backed by warranty. Would recommend to our neighbours. 2024-1126 **★★★★★ — Edith and Jean-Robert Anthony, Feb. 2024** > Kovar Contracting did a wonderful job. We are not only happy with the end result, we are happy with the way the work was performed. We, our home and our "dream kitchen" were treated with the greatest respect and integrity by Jason, Ben and Adam. They communicated transparently and regularly, arrived to work when promised, worked hard, cleaned up, clearly took pride in their work by showing attention to detail and showing up on the odd weekend to meet deadlines and showed great flexibility. We were told they wanted to make us happy. They are good at that! Jason went above and beyond for us- we would recommend them in a heartbeat! Thank you jr&e **★★★★★ — Alex Gordon, Nov. 2023** > We had our attic insulation upgraded to modern standards with Kovar. They provided a competitive and detailed quote, then came at the arranged time to complete the upgrade. After the attic insulation was installed, they cleaned up beautifully behind themselves. Every stage was very professional, I did not feel pressured and it was possible to schedule everything and pay online. The initial estimate also matched the final invoice which is always nice to see - no last minute hidden charges. Our job, \#2023-1708 was a 5/5 success! **★★★★★ — Dennis Riggs on the behalf of Brooke Valley Sch, Nov. 2023** > Windows at Brooke Valley School > > The 40+ year old windows at Brooke Valley School were in bad shape & needed replacement before any further damage to structure due to rot/moisture. > > Kovar Contracting handled procurement of new windows, removal of old and installation of new. They made several site visits beforehand to be certain of the job/windows to be ordered. > > They executed the demo & installation over just a few days, helping us to coordinate the work with our siding replacement that followed the window install. > > The windows look great and are great! We could not be happier! **★★★★★ — HU-153609962, Nov. 2023** > These are the guys you want!!!! Top quality work, professional in every way. No need to look any further then Kovar!! **★★★★★ — HU-852434201, Aug. 2023** > I have used Kovar service several times now, to put in a new skylight, and to find and solve roof leaks (cause was ice dams). This time the ice dammind and really built up while I was away and the weather was not good.... And the roof hard to access. But they were able to get the snow and ice removed at short notice and prevent further leaks. > > They are always polite and easy to deal with, and clear up perfectly afterwards. > > The skylight they put in is quite large, and was replacing a very old even larger home made strange construction. They were the only company that I spoke to that seemed to know how to go about replacing it. > > I highly recommend them and will definitely use their services again. **★★★★★ — Paul Hébert, May 2023** > Kovar Contracting Inc. re-roofed my house and garage in late April 2023. I am very satisfied with the level of service that they provided. Jason Kovar, the owner, sent an excellent team of professional workers with lots of experience. I do not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone needing a roof re-shingled. **★★★★★ — Christian Indra, Oct. 2022** > We had a great experience working with Kovar Contracting on our house renovation. Ben and Adam did such a great job in our house. The craftsmanship is top and they were always reachable when you needed to call them for some questions. > The whole invoicing was super fair and well handled. No surprises and everything as discussed in advance. > We will have to do some more work next year and we will definitely work with them again. > > 100% recommend them! ## Selected projects - [Colonial Style Home Roof Replacement](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/colonial-style-home-roof-replacement-pj-vj~2729503) - Location: Ottawa, ON - Photos: 8 - [Large Traditional Home Roof Replacement](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/large-traditional-home-roof-replacement-pj-vj~2729506) - Location: Ottawa, ON - Photos: 2 - [Rustic Home Roof Replacement](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/rustic-home-roof-replacement-pj-vj~2729504) - Location: Smiths Falls, ON - Photos: 2 - [Roof Replacements](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/roof-replacements-pj-vj~2321614) - Location: Ottawa, ON - Photos: 13 - [Before & After: Home Renovation Roof Replacement](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/before-and-after-home-renovation-roof-replacement-pj-vj~2321638) - Location: Ottawa, ON - Photos: 15 - Description: During Construction/Process Photos - [New Roof](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/new-roof-pj-vj~2729511) - Location: Ottawa, ON - Photos: 6 [See all 6 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/general-contractors/kovar-contracting-pfvwus-pf~1888589631) --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
