Kuhl's Contracting

Gustavo did an excellent job repairing woodpecker damage to our siding. He went above and beyond in fixing the flashing that was allowing water to drain down the siding, which attracts insects and in turn attracts woodpeckers. I would highly recommend Gustavo, a very respectful, knowledgeable and hard working man.

Clear quote upfront, personable/professional technician working on roof. Once the work was completed, he showed me the work he completed. Happy with the outcome. I did call again for a quote on another project and call wasn't returned.

They do gutter work and other things, I would use them again for that.

I had not heard of Kuhl before finding them on Angie's List. They were one of 4 estimates, and ultimately the company I chose to do the work. Luke managed the estimate. My late 70's house had an issue with heat loss and has some complex lines due to previous remodels. No doubt the two are related, Luke took the estimation and prep work very seriously, even bringing in a 3rd party energy efficiency company to consult on the project. Of the 4 bids, Kuhl was 5-6% higher than two. The outlined scope of work and thoroughness of the estimate justified the cost. The 4th company had a similar scope of work and put an equal amount of effort into the estimate, but the cost 15% greater. I signed the contract with Kuhl. I didn't have many questions, but the ones I asked were answered within 24 hours. Most within 1 hour. Luke went on to supervise the project. There were a couple of teams working at any given time and they seemed to work really well together. There were some minor issues: the ceiling was stepped-thru in one spot and the removal of the previous skylights cracked some interior drywall. More importantly, Kuhl brought out some folks to fix this within days of the project completion. The project was completed faster than they estimated and the crew removed all of the construction debris from the site. The work was clean and looked good. They next several days brought rain to test their effort; zero leaks. I'm really pleased with the entire process and, especially, the end result.

They are very good at replacing roofs!   Steve and Luke know their business well, and the crew did their job correctly.  A couple things needed to be addressed that had do do with gaps the original builder had created along the roof, and they sent out two excellent workers out who fixed those gaps.   The roof looks great!

Initially discussed project with Steve Kuhl, great guy. Luke was their roofing guy so he took over and provided estimates etc. Had to meet with insurance adjuster several times as well as having many discussions as insurance adjuster was quite "difficult" to work with. Eventually the insurance company approved and work could commence. From day one the entire crew was on time and cleaned up every evening. Luke was there in the beginning and stop by regularly. The construction manager was knowledgeable and friendly as well. The work began when they told me they would as well as finishing on time. The clean was great as well. I walked around the house and could hardly tell they had been there.

Luke came over on the 9th of October and the new roof was completely finished in one day on October 18th!

A real pleasure to work with; extremely efficient and cordial in all aspects of the work, including dealing with insurance.

I called Kuhl's and they promptly called me back within a couple hours.  They used steam spray to de-ice instead of picks and hammers to avoid physical damage.  They finished de-icing in 2 hours.

1. Seal all attic bypasses. Furnish and install new air chutes in every accessible rafter. Install R7 flex duct over dryer vent. Install R19 batting to skylight tunnels and install tyvack wrap to skylight tunnels. R19 batting to laundry chute. Installed and sealed R7

boxes to all can lights and bath fans. Replace 21 9x16 soffit vents. Install blown insulation in attic space to achieve level of R50 Cellulose.  Clean up and remove and properly dispose debris.  Everything is excellent and wished we found Kuhl's sooner.

We have a 90 year old home in south Minneapolis and had problems with leaks and ice dams last winter. Part of the issue was the metal flashing on our roof and chimney, in addition to leaking around our chimney with the original mortar falling apart. We had four masonry companies come and give us estimates. Two were very expensive and not very informative at all, while Kuhl and another company actually met with us, explained the issues and gave us very reasonable quotes. We decided to go with Kuhl and they were very professional and kept in contact with us throughout the process.
They performed the repair in two stages, weeks apart. The first repair was done in about one full day, repairing the roof and installing flashing and new shingles. The crew worked very hard and put in 12+ hour day, did a great job and cleaned up well afterward. The second repair was sandblasting old mortar out, masonry to the top of the chimney and retuckpointing the entire chimney. This took a few days but again the crew was very good and conscious of our landscaping and clean up.
Overall, they did a great job and our new chimney and flashing look great. We are very pleased with Kuhl and would absolutely use them again in the future.

The whole team was professional, nice, and punctual. I was very impressed. Kuhl came as a referral from friends and we wouldn't hesitate to use them again for roof repair. We had horrible ice dams last winter and Kuhl came out to assess our roof, address a leak we discovered this spring, and also discuss options for insulation in our attic and space underneath our kitchen.
The team did a great job explaining the problems, talking through our choices and pricing and giving us recommendations. All of the work (from the roof repair to insulation) were done in the same day - which made it really easy for us taking only 1 day off of work. We really appreciated how punctual and professional they were. We had issues in the past with other companies/contractors hiring young, inexperienced workers to do the job. But Kuhl was different - the people that showed up to quote the work, were the same people that showed up to complete the work. Kuhl may cost only a bit more, but the quality of work they did was fantastic. We will do more business with Kuhl down the road, no hesitation.

In about an hour and 45min, a 3 man team set up, steamed off the ice dam, shoveled our walkway where ice fell, and packed up.

We have used Kuhl's previously to remove an ice dam, and this year with the crazy amount of snow we had, we had more ice dams this year. I lost the contact information for Kuhl's and used another firm. Bad mistake! The other firm was a LOT more expensive. I subsequently found the receipt from previous years from Kuhl's and gave them a call when we had another ice dam leak this year. This time, we had them shovel the roof completely, and they came same day, and did a great job. Highly recommend them, and I will NOT loose their contact information again.

Everything went as expected. Both the owner, Steve, and the project manager, Tom, were very responsive. We appreciated having a detailed bid with different replacement options. All the work was completed in the time promised. We would recommend this company to anyone needing roofing.

They were extremely professional. They had excellent recommendations with the design. They gave us many options for price ranges and the design packages that coincided. The workmanship was exceptional. They were prompt and very easy to work with. When some unexpected things popped up, they were on task and were able to handle them quickly and efficiently.

I think they do their work very well. Their quality is very good and their knowledge is very high.

Great! They scheduled within a few days of calling, they arrived promptly, Carlos was very professional and knowledgeable. The two guys worked together for the hourly rate and they worked fast and furiously. Only issue was all the ice/snow from the roof avalanched on to the gas meter and outdoor intake/exhaust pipes for the furnace and hot water heater. The office promptly tracked them down and they came back within 2 hours to shovel everything out. They were reasonable in price considering the market for ice dam removal this year and very knowledgable about special roofs and resolution to prevent the problem in the future. I highly recommend this team.

It went well and they did a nice job. It was a pleasure to come home to see my clean roof, at least until it snowed again. I had trouble finding someone who would work on a metal roof. The came out within a day or two of my call. They used steam to clear the ice. The work took about as long as they said it would (2.5 hours for my ranch-style house). The most impressive part, in my opinion, is how they cleared the couple of feet of snow and ice that fell on my sidewalk and driveway. I do not think I could have cleared that myself. At least not before spring. There was electricity in the garage for them to use, but they needed to use water from inside the house (my outside faucets were frozen). Happily, it wasn't extremely cold that day. It was pretty expensive, but I would hire them again.
