Redstar Contracting

Redstar Contracting is a Newton general contractor whose name shows up on notable Boston-area commercial work — a 2015 trade report on the Borrego Solar Systems build-out credits the company alongside EDE Engineers, and a New England design-awards listing names it on the Drizly headquarters project. BBB's file also puts the company at 42 years in business under the Home Builders category. There isn't much of a customer record to go with that work. The only rating on file is a single 2024 Google review, one star, with the customer writing simply "stay away." Worth asking about directly: BuildZoom shows the company's General Contractor registration with the City of Newton (#78430) went inactive after expiring in March 2022, with no more recent license activity on record. With so little written record to go on — one review, one lapsed registration, and a scattering of project credits — it's worth confirming current licensing and getting recent references before booking.
