Repaired it years ago and it's still good! Thanks a lot!
Job went beyond smoothly. At every step Kovar exceeded my expectations. They communicated professionally and rapidly, and were able to send someone out the following day to conduct the inspection. The folks who carried out the inspection were friendly and explained things clearly and were quite thorough. They answered all my anxious homeowner questions and left me feeling much better with a plan to fix the problems with our roof.
For more than 15 years, my house suffered from icicle formation every winter because the heating cable was installed incorrectly, and ice damming was a constant problem. With the heating cable installed by Kovar, I do not see any icicle formation or ice damming. It is a lovely work. Extremely good and professional work.
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 werent 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,

What to check before you hire
Worth checking yourself
Always confirm credentials and quotes with the business directly before hiring.
Trade licensing in Canada is set by each province or territory. Electrical, gas and plumbing are licensed trades almost everywhere (for example ESA for electrical and TSSA for gas in Ontario), so check your provincial regulator that the contractor is certified for the work before you hire.
A construction lien is a real risk: in every province an unpaid subcontractor or supplier can register a lien against your home even if you already paid the main contractor. Hold back the statutory amount (commonly around 10%) and get signed lien waivers as you pay.
Confirm they cover your area and can actually come out in your timeframe before anything else.
