Remodeling Across Hyannis
What We Build and Renovate Across Hyannis and the Surrounding Villages
Hyannis is the commercial center of Cape Cod and a village of the Town of Barnstable. Downtown and the Route 132 corridor carry the Cape’s densest commercial property, while Hyannis Port and the streets toward Nantucket Sound hold older single-family and waterfront homes. That mix means a Hyannis job can be a kitchen in a 1950s ranch one week and a tenant fit-out the next, and we work across both.
Our Services
Kitchen Remodeling
Cabinet installation, cabinet refacing, countertop replacement, island additions and open-concept conversions. Much of the village housing stock went up in the 1950s and 1960s, so the kitchens are small, closed and set behind walls that may be carrying load. Finding out which ones are is the first site visit, not a mid-project surprise. See our kitchen remodeling services for the full scope.
Our Services
Deck Building
Hyannis Port and the streets running toward Nantucket Sound take direct salt spray, and hardware that lasts a decade a mile inland corrodes far sooner there. Barnstable County also sits in a high-wind design zone, which changes fastener schedules and footing depth on every exterior build. New decks, repairs, composite and cedar, railings and staining. Full detail at our deck building page.
Our Services
Siding
Vinyl, cedar shake, and fiber cement siding installation and repair, exterior trim replacement, and storm damage repair. Siding on properties north of Route 6 in Hyannis may require Old King’s Highway Historic District Committee review before a permit issues, that is a step we know and handle. See siding contractor services .
Our Services
Bathroom Remodeling
Full bathroom remodels, tub to shower conversions, walk-in shower installation, tile, vanity replacement, and master and small bathroom work. Mid-century Hyannis homes often still carry cast iron waste lines and original subfloor, and both tend to show their age only once the fixtures come out. Details on our bathroom remodeling page.
Our Services
General Construction
Home additions, basement remodeling, attic conversions, lead paint removal and second-story additions. Village lots in Hyannis are tighter than the rest of the Town of Barnstable, so setbacks and lot coverage decide what an addition can be before any drawing starts. Our office is on Ridgewood Ave, minutes from most of the village. For broader scope, visit our general contractor page.
Local Knowledge
What Should a Hyannis Homeowner Know Before Starting Work?
Hyannis sits south of Route 6, which places most of the village outside the Old King’s Highway Regional Historic District that governs the Route 6A corridor in Barnstable Village and West Barnstable. That removes one review step for most Hyannis addresses, but it does not remove the others. Properties near the water fall under Conservation Commission jurisdiction, commercial work along Route 132 and downtown carries its own inspection schedule, and any home built before 1978 brings federal lead paint rules into the scope, which changes containment, sequencing and cost before framing starts. We confirm which of these apply to your specific address during the estimate rather than after the contract.
Planning Your Project
Who Pulls the Building Permit for Construction Work in Hyannis?
West Mountain Construction pulls the permit on every permitted-scope project in Hyannis, and managing it is not the homeowner’s job. Hyannis is a village of the Town of Barnstable, so permits are issued by the Town of Barnstable Building Division at 200 Main Street, which also conducts inspections and enforces the State building code. A permit is required for construction, reconstruction, alteration, repair, removal or demolition of a structure, and for work to gas, electrical, plumbing and heating systems. Depending on the scope the Division may also require sign-off from Conservation, Fire, Health or the Zoning Board of Appeals. Marcelo holds Construction Supervisor license #CS-122691, the Commonwealth credential required to file permitted work.
Our Standard of Work
Why Homeowners in Hyannis Choose a Contractor Inspected Beyond the Town Level
Most contractors working in Hyannis have been inspected by one body: the town’s building department, when a project is done. West Mountain Construction has been an approved vendor at Hanscom Air Force Base since 2016. That status requires documented safety programs, verified insurance, screened personnel, and schedule accountability that is contractual, and it gets re-qualified year after year. A contractor cannot decide to earn that credential next week. It takes a clean record over time, and one failure ends it.
That same standard runs every residential job we take. Marcelo walks every project personally at completion. The punch list gets resolved before we call a job finished, and the one-year written workmanship warranty starts the day you sign off, not the day we started. If something we installed fails because of how we installed it, you call (774) 836-2241. We respond within two business days, inspect it ourselves, and correct it at no cost. No deductible, no debate about whether it qualifies. If you sell the property inside the warranty year, the coverage transfers to the new owner. Materials carry the manufacturer’s warranty separately, and if a product fails, we handle that claim for you.
The 4.8-star rating across 45 Google reviews reflects what that standard looks like from the customer side.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does West Mountain Construction serve Hyannis Port and the villages around Hyannis?
Yes. We work throughout Hyannis and Hyannis Port, and across the neighboring villages of the Town of Barnstable including Centerville, Osterville, Cotuit and Marstons Mills. Our office is at 195A Ridgewood Avenue in Hyannis, so most addresses in the village are a few minutes away and there is no travel charge anywhere in the town.
Is my Hyannis property inside a historic district?
Almost certainly not. The Old King’s Highway Regional Historic District covers the Route 6A corridor north of Route 6, which takes in Barnstable Village and West Barnstable but not Hyannis. That removes a review step from most Hyannis projects. Other approvals can still apply: property near the water falls under Conservation Commission jurisdiction, and any home built before 1978 brings federal lead paint rules into the scope.
Who issues the building permit for a project in Hyannis?
Hyannis is a village of the Town of Barnstable, so permits are issued by the Town of Barnstable Building Division, which is located in Hyannis itself at 200 Main Street. The Division also conducts the inspections and enforces the State building code. We pull the permit as part of every project that needs one. Marcelo holds Construction Supervisor license #CS-122691, the Commonwealth credential required to file permitted work.
Do you take on commercial work in downtown Hyannis and along Route 132?
Yes. Hyannis carries the densest commercial property on Cape Cod, and we handle new commercial construction, interior remodeling and ongoing maintenance along the Route 132 corridor and through the downtown. Commercial scopes run on their own inspection schedule and are sequenced around the tenant staying open wherever that is possible.
How does working near Nantucket Sound change an exterior project in Hyannis?
Properties in Hyannis Port and on the streets running toward the Sound take direct salt spray, which corrodes standard hardware and fasteners far sooner than a few streets inland. Barnstable County also sits in a high-wind design zone, which changes fastening requirements and footing depth on exterior work. We specify for that exposure at the start rather than replacing hardware later.
