Presto describes itself as a family-owned carpentry, painting and roofing contractor on the North Shore. An April 2023 customer praised interior painting, tile replacement and front porch repairs. In a February 2021 review, a couple said they chose Presto to replace their roof and siding and paint their home. The company's site says it is an EPA Certified Renovator and has held a BBB A+ rating since January 2007. Google shows 4.7★ from 19 ratings. In July 2018, a customer said Presto claimed it would create an estimate for a complete gutter job, and that after more than 10 follow-up calls the company never responded. **Strengths:** - Long-time clients — February 2023 customers describe 10 to 25 years with Presto - Painting and carpentry — an April 2023 customer had painting, tile and porch repairs **Concerns:** - Gutter estimate — a July 2018 customer got no reply after 10-plus calls ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - Several February 2023 reviewers said they had used Presto for ten to twenty-five years _(confidence: medium)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUNoc2VhRnRRRRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0x5789de501eb038ce!3m1!1s2@1:CIHM0ogKEICAgIChseaFtQE%7C%7C?hl=en) — “5★ Highly recommend Presto CPR.
