Castillo Construction and Painting

Castillo Construction and Painting works out of Malden and takes on the whole spread of residential remodeling: kitchens and bathrooms, decks and home additions, roofing, siding, drywall, carpentry and painting. The company says it has been at it for about a decade and lists Malden alongside Boston, Medford, Newton, Lexington, Arlington, Burlington, Winchester, Belmont and Wellesley as the towns it serves. Olvin Castillo is the owner of record. The Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor registration, #210532, is active and confirmed against the state registry in the company's own name — the check a homeowner most wants done, done. The track record is short but pointed. A July 2026 review from a deck client describes daily on-time arrival, updates through the build, the job finished as promised and the site left spotless; a separate directory mention describes the owner in similar terms, as unusually communicative and precise, though it carries no date. That is one recent review and one undated comment — genuinely positive, but not yet a body of work you can lean on. Worth pinning down before you sign: the HIC registration on file was issued in December 2025, which doesn't square neatly with the ten years the website claims, so ask how long the current company has been trading under this name. The site also advertises a construction supervisor licence, CSL 122934, that has not been verified against the state registry — ask to see it. For a Malden-area deck, kitchen or bath where you want a hands-on owner on site, this is a reasonable firm to get a quote from; get the scope, schedule and payment stages in writing, and ask for two or three recent local references.
