Ed and his team were fabulous throughout the whole process. They were polite, easy to communicate with and responsive. They were very clean and respectful and the work went smoothly. On time and on budget and any issues that came up were clearly shared. We are very happy with the end result and would recommend highly. We will use them again should another house project come up.

I honestly could not imagine it going any better. Ed and his crew are highly professional and the project came in on budget and within the margin for timely completion. Ed is unflappable and the client's happiness is truly his only objective.

Our Victorian house built in 1913 had ice dams in the winter and leaking into some of the windows, plus a large, open area in front of the house under the roof where boards had rotted. We had called other contractors, but they were not responsive. Ed McDonald came out to give us an estimate right after I called. He scheduled the work for a time that was most convenient for us, and kept in touch by email while the work was being done, explaining everything and updating us about any problems encountered - such as the fact that many of the rafters were rotted and needed their tail ends replaced. He and his crew were knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, a pleasure to have around. The crew worked hard, with care and precision, coming even on Saturdays, and regularly cleaning up the site. They did a beautiful job and the house looks so much better. We feel very reassured that we will not have further leaks. We are happy with the work done and impressed by the professionalism of Ed and his crew. We are so glad to have found McDonald Contracting.
Description of Work: Replaced gutters, fascias/soffit boards and crown molding. Installed new soffit vents and new aluminum gutters and downspouts Reframed rotted rafter tails, replaced damaged insulation. Repaired lower soffit on bay window roof. Patched bathroom fan/light fixture.

Description of Work: They removed ice dams from the roof of my house, at the height of the season when ice dam removers were in high demand. Other contractors I called either did not return my call or could not do the work soon. The McDonald team went to the roof with their ropes and large hammers and got to work promptly. The hammer blows on the ice seemed to shake the entire house. But they knew what they were doing. The roof was not damaged, and the ice was removed in such a way that no new dams formed for the rest of the season.
