X-Pro Home Improvement is a small carpentry outfit in Medford, MA, run by Edgar Prestes, and the reviews on file share a theme: getting a tricky job done right, from a deck repair to a garage framing project. The company says it has been in business two years. The most detailed reviews carry the most weight here. One homeowner needed a deck fixed and got more than a patch job: the crew traced the actual cause of the problem, corrected it, and caught other issues along the way that could have caused worse damage down the road. On a garage framing project, a customer described a crew that handled the harder sections carefully, communicated throughout, and cleaned the site thoroughly when finished. A third customer, in a hurry to sell a home, said Edgar fit them in the same day and finished within hours. There's nothing negative in what customers have said, but that history is thin: all five detailed reviews and the 5.0-star average come from Thumbtack alone, across two years and eight total ratings. That's not a warning sign so much as a young business still building its name one job at a time. X-Pro looks like a solid call for deck repair, framing, or general carpentry work around Medford — particularly a job that needs someone to actually diagnose the problem rather than just replace a part. Given how new and small the review history still is, it's worth confirming current availability and getting a written scope before booking.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from X-Pro Home Improvement. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
A typical single-level deck is 12×16 — about 200 sq ft.

we had moss covering our back deck. Edgar came and made the deck look like new!
I was very impressed by X-Pro's professionalism, ingenuity, and quality of workmanship. The repair I needed was not a simple fix or replacement, but the X-Pro crew carefully identified the underlying problem and came up with an ingenious solution to complete the job properly. While working, they also went above and beyond by noticing and repairing additional issues that I had not been aware of. Those extra repairs may have prevented much more serious damage to my deck in the future. I am extremely pleased with the work they performed and would highly recommend X-Pro to any homeowner looking for a knowledgeable, dependable, and skilled general contractor.
Absolutely thrilled with everything! This young man is a hard worker and very pleasant. We are still doing more but we are pleased with everything! He's now our go-to carpenter. 👍
Edgar was extremely quick and professional. I reached out to him in the morning, and although he originally said he could come the next day, he contacted me a few hours later and said he could make it the same day. He showed up, got right to work, and had the project finished within a few hours. He was polite, professional, and clearly talented at what he does. He has a great eye for carpentry and should absolutely be trusted with home projects. I'm selling my home and needed this done quickly, and Edgar really helped me out in a pinch. I'm very thankful for his work.
I highly recommend this framing contractor. They arrived on time, were professional and communicative throughout the project, and delivered outstanding quality work. They handled some difficult framing areas with excellent technique and attention to detail, discussed options and recommendations along the way, and made sure everything was done properly. When additional materials were needed, they took the initiative to get them so the project could continue without delay. They also kept the work area clean and thoroughly cleaned up after completion. The garage framing came out great, and I would not hesitate to hire them again.
