Pro Master Painting, Inc

Pro Master Painting is a one-man company in Franklin, and the name undersells what its permits describe. Across nine permitted jobs only one names painting at all — and there as one trade inside a larger renovation. The rest is remodeling: a $35,100 kitchen in Auburndale in 2020 with new beams, cabinets and wood flooring; a $26,000 kitchen and a $20,000 full bathroom in Chestnut Hill in 2016; a second Chestnut Hill bathroom in 2019; ceiling and wall demolition with electrical rewiring in Brookline in 2022 after ice-water damage; and a $47,250 commercial renovation in Somerville the same year. Siding is the other recurring line — 40 squares in Brighton in 2017 for $53,000, plus two vinyl-siding jobs in Methuen in 2018. The credential side is clean: its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, #173417, is active and held in the company's own name. Owner Evandro Ribeiro is the only employee listed. What is absent is any customer account. BuildZoom has received no reviews for the company, so its score of 94 — which the site frames as the top 24% of 139,240 Massachusetts licensed contractors — is built from permit and licence records rather than from anyone who hired them. One practical thing before calling: this is a Franklin business, roughly forty-five miles southwest of Methuen, and its only work up that way is the pair of 2018 siding jobs. If your house is in the Merrimack Valley, ask whether they still travel there. The permits point to a capable small remodeler — kitchens, baths, siding, demolition and repair — rather than a painting-only crew, and the active registration backs the scope. With nothing written by a customer anywhere, ask for direct references from the 2022 Brookline and Somerville jobs, and get the scope and schedule in writing.
