Stephen Navarro Painters works out of Newton, taking on interior and exterior painting along with the carpentry, plaster, and masonry repair that often comes with maintaining older homes in the area. The company describes itself as locally owned and says it has been doing this work for 36 years, though BBB's file — tied to an 8/2/2010 start date — lists only 15, a gap worth asking about directly. It's also a listed member of the Newton Chamber of Commerce. What stands out most recently isn't paint at all — it's the roof. Two homeowners who called this past winter describe the same thing: a Sunday call about snow buildup and ice dams, and a crew clearing the roof within about two hours before water got inside. That kind of same-day response to a weather emergency is the freshest look at how the company actually operates. Zoom out and the pattern holds. Twenty ratings on Google average a perfect 5.0, and BBB backs that with an A+ grade, though the business is not BBB-accredited. Across five sources going back to 2021, nothing negative turns up — reviewers over the years keep pointing to clean, dependable crews and careful attention to detail on painting jobs. There isn't much to flag: no complaints on BBB, no negative reviews anywhere in the mix. The real question is that years-in-business gap between the site's 36 and BBB's 15 — worth clearing up before booking. And since only two reviews have landed in the last six months, it's fair to confirm current availability and lead times directly rather than assume the pace of past years. This reads like a small, hands-on outfit suited to detailed painting and repair work — and, based on this winter, storm-emergency roof clearing — rather than large-scale remodeling. For a paint job or an urgent ice-dam call, the record backs them up; just settle the years-in-business question and get a firm timeline before signing anything.

Stephen and his team came on a Sunday to remove snow and deal with ice dams before we had too much damage inside the house. I would highly recommend his services. He is knowledgeable and has been in this business for a long time. His work is thorough and he is a really nice person who knows what he’s doing. You will be in excellent hands if you use his services.

My roof was leaking due to all of the snow and ice dam formations. Stephen and his team come out right away to clear the snow off of my roof and break up the ice damns within 2 hours of my call. They made a stressful situation a lot easier to manage with their quick response and clearance of the snow from the roof. He also provided a helpful explanation of what caused the ice dams and what to watch out for going forward. I also appreciated the care that his team took as I also have solar panels on the roof. While I hope the weather permits and doesn’t require roof snow removal in the future, I know who to call if it does and I’ll definitely be using his company for other services like painting going forward.

Stephen Navarro really came through in an emergency. Our upstairs washing machine overflowed, soaking the floor below: half our living room ceiling collapsed three days before Christmas. Steve was at our home the next morning to assess the damage, and his crew was here a short time after. They were thorough, clean and professional, and completed the job the next morning. The work they did was exceptional. We can't even tell where the repair was made. Highly recommended.

Highly recommend. We had a great experience with Stephen and his team. Their work is excellent — the attention to detail shows in every part of the job. They were dependable and very pleasant to have in our home. They painted our entire interior and I really appreciated how clean and tidy they kept everything. We’re thrilled with how it all turned out.

Fantastic crew very capable and cooperative. I would highly recommend Stephen Navarro painting and contracting. They did 2 jobs for me over the past month and we are very pleased with their attention to detail. The 2 houses they painted for me came out absolutely superb.
