Having a 150 year old Victorian house with a slate roof is both a blessing and a curse, no more so when trying to find adequate craftsman who can do repairs properly. Finding contractors who can also do more complex projects like replacing all the metal linings of your wooden gutters is even harder; in our case we looked for almost two years to find a crew that actually seemed to know what they were doing. JB Kidney was that company, and I have say they are probably one of THE best that I've ever had do work on the house (of any kind, not just roof-related).They were that extremely rare combination of being absolutely thorough down to every detail, AND efficient (so efficient that they finished a week sooner than expected). Many crews may have one guy who us the most highly skilled and rest are OK enough to follow his lead. Not the case with the crew we had; they had a "lead" but everyone was clearly very experienced and knowledgeable. Having been a professional craftsman in the past I can spot pretty quickly any shortcuts taken, or if the skillset of the workers is uneven; to a man these workers were absolute pros.Lastly, unlike most crews that start from scratch once they show up, they arrived with sections of the copper gutters that were going to be installed already formed and cut to rough lengths! Once all the old tin or lead lining was stripped out, they were able to very quickly lay in the new copper. Each section was given plenty of overlap to the next and the seams were all soldered together. As they said once they were done (which was plain to see from my windows): These gutters will outlast the life of any adult in the house, and maybe more.All the slate repairs were top-notch as well, with any flashing that needed fixing being replaced along the way. There was even an unexpected small section of regular asphalt shingles (over a porch) that needed replacing which they rolled into the project WITHOUT adding to the bill.Really, I can't see how you could ask for better service or results than we got.Services: Gutter repairs, Roof repair

We had to replace a flat, rubber roof that was under a second floor deck and called JB Kidney and Sons, because they had installed a standing seam, copper roof on another section of our house. Scott Kidney and his crew arrived promptly on the agreed-upon date. The roof was in worse shape than we knew and had electrical wiring that needed replacement, but Kidney met these unexpected problems with no hesitation. The final product was well-crafted, with red copper flashing and sloping high R-value insulation. The quality of design and implementation is much higher than what we originally had. Moreover, the job required coordination with a number of other trades, and Scott and his crew were a big help to the other contractors. They were professional, meticulous, and polite. I heartily recommend JB Kidney and Sons.

Waited for weeks for another company to call back; one call to Scott at JB and I had a decent sized custom order delivered in a matter of days. Super responsive, easy to deal with and reasonable cost for high quality work. Will do business with again!
