HORRIBLE contractor? we hired Jason and his company 03/22/25 to renovate our basement. Work supposed to be done 4-6 weeks that was a lie. It took them over 2 months to some what finish. We payed $40 thousand for half done job?Jason brings one handyman to work alone . For the firs three weeks nothing was done and when l call Jason he was literally arguing with me telling me he have no money to continue working and it will be done on time. This man is delusional and have no sense of time passing by. He?s worker told us he doesn?t give him to come to work. Jason will only show up to ask for money we would see him any other way. At the end my floor is uneven, door can?t close properly, cover for hitters are cheep plastic it will melt once heat is on, panting is poorly done and so on. This was far WORST contractor that we have. I will continue complaining about them this isn?t company it is big SCAM.
Response from Presto Construction

"We are truly sorry you are not happy with the work and with this review. We did multiple walk throughs with your husband and made sure he confirmed the work was satisfactory and he was happy with all that was done. In regards to the extended time of 2 weeks to complete the job, we did uncover additional work when demoing that was agreed upon by you folks and we did the work at no additional cost to you. We made you aware at that time the timing could increase."

Ro,the technition politely introduced himself and immediately assessed the problem. He allowed me to watch as he removed the old pump and then installed the new one. He then ran the new pump to insure that it was working properly. Ro worked efficiently and explained what he was doing throughout the procedure. I learned about the importance of a check valve!"He was courteous and fun to watch. When he finished,he cleaned up all unnecessary materials and gave me the papers I needed to keep. He instructed me to take a picture of the white tag on the subpump so that I would have it for the warrenty.I was very comfortable with his work and appreciated his telling me about the importance of keeping a picture of the warrenty tag.I highly recommend Presto construction.!

The customer service was great. He was so patient with us and he explained thoroughly what had to be done. His workers were professional as well as courteous. Everything was cleared and replaced original space. In Spite of bad weather, which included rain the job was completed in a timely manner. We would definitely recommend them as a trustworthy company.

BEWARE of this contractor, but if you donâ t mind HIDDEN CHARGES then proceed. I hired Jason for a waterproofing job on 8/16/24. Initially, he was nice and even provided details on how I could secure financing from a bank for the job (almost $5000!), as well as a $500 â discountâ . On the day the repairs were supposed to begin, he called to tell me that I needed to pay an additional $500, so the â foremanâ can replace the wall and flooring after the job. The same $500 that was supposed to be a discount! yep, he took it back. I paid the additional $500, just so we could remain cordial and he gets the job done. When the repairs started, he told me it would start at 9am and end at 4-5pm on the same day, however, that was entirely FALSE. The repair took 2 days, in which he kept hounding me to call the bank to release the funds from the LOAN I took out for this repairs, and while the job was still NOT COMPLETED! On the second day, he reached out to me that the job was completed, however, what he didnâ t mention is that there was a gaping HOLE in the ground which he refused to cover unless I paid an additional $450! This is a total of $950 ADDITIONAL besides the initial cost of the job! This is where I drew the line on being EXPLOITED. So, I had to get someone else to complete a job that I paid thousands of dollars for to Presto Construction LLC!
Response from Presto Construction

"This customer was made aware that the removal of drywall and flooring was not included in her estimate before we started. Upon the start of the job her tenant was unhappy that the landlord did not arrange for the put back of drywall and flooring for her. We decided to help the customer by returning the drywall and flooring at an agreed upon price of $500 and proceeded. We finished the job exactly as what was explained and the tenant was unhappy that the sump pump cover was exposed and wanted the sump pump to now be boxed in to cover the appearance of the sump pump. The owner then contacted us and asked us to do her a favor and do the work for free and she would leave us an amazing positive review because she was so happy with the work but needed to make her tenant happy and she just did not have any money left. I proposed that we could do the box out of the sump pump for what the cost of material and labor would be and the owner declined. Now I believe this negative review is a retaliation of is not doing free work for her in return for a positive review. We always stand by our price and our work is always top of the line. We apologize we could not provide a free service for work that was never contracted or discussed. Again we appreciate all our customers comments and hope the other review will reflect on our integrity and company. We also have a copy of the text message this owner sent that shows she asked for free work in return for the positive review. (We are trying to get Angi to upload our text message records to show, but if any customer has any questions we would be happy to provide.)"

I looked up their license number (147246) included on an estimate (Link Removed) and am not getting a result. Based on that, I believe Presto are lying to consumers about being licensed in the state of MD which from my understanding is against the law (Link Removed) Additionally, I am not sure if he is an employee or owner but Jason has liens related other parties against them. You can look up the various cases on the MD courts website (Link Removed) Lastly, I am not getting a building when I search up their address which leads me to believe they are hiding something. Overall, between the potential misrepresentation and court items, I would NOT recommend working with this company.
Response from Presto Construction

"This customer not only has our license # that he was able to verify but also made sure to receive our Certificate of Insurance. Upon asking for additional work to be done at no cost we obliged at the time of doing the work and went above and beyond to make this man happy. Bringing one of our employees personal financial information onto a public platform is beyond outrageous and egregious. We Try to make all of our customer very happy and as you can see by all our reviews we do that and go above and beyond. We appreciate the comments and will take them as they are. - Jeffrey Ventura"

Presto was hands down the best option to complete our project. They were the most transparent and reasonable among several other companies we spoke with throughout the whole process and delivered a high quality of work in an insanely timely manner. They completed a visit, estimate, and the project within four days. We also ran into a couple of issues during the project which they discussed with me openly and at no point did they try to upsell me on additional work, products, etc. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Jason was the guy we hired. He was AWESOME!!!! Kept in touch with us everyday because of the weather forecast. Very helpful and informative. Once him and his guys started the work on our backyard, in a blink of an eye, they were done. Wonderful work! My husband and I are very satisfied. We will be using Presto again. Thank you guys so much!!!!

The customer service was truly exceptional. The value was truly exceptional. We interviewed multiple Class A contractors before choosing to go with Presto and discussed the differences between the different approaches and materials of each. Jason was extremely knowledgeable and forthright about the differences in our options, why he stood by his recommendation, etc. His price was extremely competitive as well and included a few little extras like installing the conduit and outlet box for the sump pump, that other contractors didn't offer. Finally, the crew completed their work quickly and did a great job cleaning up the site!

Jason was incredibly helpful explaining what they needed to do to repair my foundation and why. He had his crew out the very next day and they worked tirelessly to get it all done in one day. Phenomenal!
