West Mountain Construction — Hyannis, MA

A licensed general contractor working across every village of the Town of Barnstable

The Town of Barnstable is the largest town on Cape Cod, home to roughly 48,000 residents spread across seven distinct villages — Barnstable Village, Centerville, Cotuit, Hyannis, Marstons Mills, Osterville, and West Barnstable. Each village has its own character: the historic waterfront of Barnstable Village, the summer estates and yacht club culture of Osterville and Cotuit, the year-round residential density of Centerville and Hyannis, and the quieter inland pockets of Marstons Mills and West Barnstable.

West Mountain Construction is based inside the town, in the Hyannis village at 195A Ridgewood Avenue. That means no long-haul travel across the Cape to reach any Barnstable job — the crew is already in-town. The same Town of Barnstable Building Division at 200 Main Street handles every permit for every village, and we've filed with them since 2016.

How We Help Barnstable Property Owners

Kitchen and Bathroom Remodeling in Hyannis

Kitchen and Bathroom Remodeling

Kitchen work across Barnstable covers cabinet installation and refacing, countertop replacement, island additions, open-concept conversions, and full small-kitchen rebuilds. Projects involving new plumbing, gas, or electrical panels require separate trade permits alongside the building permit — a detail that catches homeowners off guard when they hire someone who doesn't pull all of them. Bathroom work runs the same range: tub-to-shower conversions, walk-in shower tile, vanity replacements, and master bath remodels.

Decks, Siding, and Exterior in Hyannis

Decks, Siding, and Exterior

The Town of Barnstable stretches from Cape Cod Bay on the north to Nantucket Sound on the south — waterfront and near-water properties across every village. Marine air corrodes standard hardware quickly, and fastening schedules for coastal wind zones are more demanding than the inland Massachusetts baseline. We build new decks, repair existing ones, install composite and cedar options, add railings, and handle staining and sealing. Siding work includes vinyl, cedar shake, fiber cement, exterior trim, and storm-damage repair.

Home Additions and Structural Work in Hyannis

Home Additions and Structural Work

Home additions and major renovations across Barnstable include second-story additions, basement remodeling, and attic conversions. Lead paint removal is part of this scope — West Mountain holds a Construction Safety Specialist certification and performs EPA-regulated work on older housing stock, which matters in a town where the historic building fabric of Barnstable Village and West Barnstable includes a significant share of pre-1978 construction.

Commercial Construction and Remodeling in Hyannis

Commercial Construction and Remodeling

Commercial work in Barnstable covers new commercial construction, interior remodeling, and ongoing commercial maintenance — from the Route 132 corridor in Hyannis to storefronts in Osterville and Cotuit. West Mountain has held approved vendor status at Hanscom Air Force Base since 2015. Work that passes federal inspection carries the same documentation and safety discipline to every commercial job in the Town of Barnstable.

What Barnstable Homeowners Ask Before Hiring a Contractor

Do I need a building permit for construction work in the Town of Barnstable?

Most construction work in any village of the Town of Barnstable requires a building permit, issued by the Town of Barnstable Building Division at 200 Main Street in Hyannis — the same municipal department handles permits across all seven villages. Every permit is also subject to Board of Health approval before it issues. Scope determines which permits apply: a kitchen renovation that adds or relocates plumbing, gas, or electrical service requires separate trade permits in addition to the base building permit. Work that touches a wetland buffer, coastal bank, or pond jurisdiction may also require a Conservation Commission filing under the Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act, on its own timeline. West Mountain pulls permits on every project as a standard part of the contract.

How do I know if a general contractor in Barnstable is actually qualified?

In Massachusetts, the qualifications that matter for residential construction are verifiable through the state licensing board, not through a contractor's own marketing. West Mountain Construction holds a Construction Supervisor License (#CS-122691), required for structural work, and a Home Improvement Contractor registration (#188708), required for residential remodeling. Both are checkable through the Massachusetts Office of Consumer Affairs and Business Regulation. Beyond license numbers, the question worth asking is whether the contractor's work has ever been evaluated by someone other than a local building inspector. West Mountain has held approved vendor status at Hanscom Air Force Base since 2015 — a relationship re-qualified annually, requiring documented safety programs, verified insurance, and work that passes federal inspection.

What happens if something goes wrong after the job is done?

Every scope West Mountain Construction installs in the Town of Barnstable carries a one-year written workmanship warranty — it is in the contract, not in a sales conversation. 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 argument. Materials are covered separately by the manufacturer's warranty — if a product fails, West Mountain handles the manufacturer claim on your behalf. Coverage transfers to the new owner if you sell within the warranty year. Marcelo walks every project personally at completion; the warranty year starts the day you sign off, not the day work began.

The Seven Villages of the Town of Barnstable

The Town of Barnstable is made up of seven officially recognized villages, each with its own zip code, character, and building history. West Mountain Construction works in all of them, with no travel fee for jobs anywhere in the town.

• Barnstable Village — the town's historic seat, along the Old King's Highway and Barnstable Harbor on the north shore.
• Centerville — a large residential village on the south shore, home to Craigville Beach and long-established year-round neighborhoods.
• Cotuit — a summer and year-round village on the southwestern shore, historic captains' homes and Cotuit Bay waterfront.
• Hyannis — the commercial and cultural hub of the Cape, home to our office, the Village Green, and the HyArts district.
• Marstons Mills — an inland village of the town, known for its ponds, cranberry bogs, and quieter residential streets.
• Osterville — a south-shore village of established estates, waterfront property, and the Osterville village center.
• West Barnstable — the town's largest village by land area, on the north shore, with heavily wooded residential lots and historic New England architecture.

Our office in Hyannis puts us within a short drive of every job in the town, and the same Town of Barnstable Building Division on 200 Main Street handles permits for all seven villages.

West Mountain Construction handles permit applications with the Town of Barnstable Building Division at 200 Main Street, Hyannis. The Division oversees building, electrical, gas, and plumbing permits, and all permits require Board of Health approval before issuance. A kitchen renovation that involves new plumbing, gas, or electrical work will typically require separate trade permits in addition to the main building permit.

Massachusetts requires a Construction Supervisor License for structural work and a Home Improvement Contractor registration for residential remodeling. West Mountain Construction holds both, along with a Construction Safety Specialist certification. Those credentials are issued by the state and the federal safety program, not self-reported. You can verify each one independently before signing anything.

Approved vendor status at Hanscom Air Force Base requires annual re-qualification, personnel screening, documented safety programs, and inspections by federal reviewers who have no interest in a contractor's reputation. West Mountain Construction has maintained that status every year since 2015. The same documentation, safety discipline, and schedule accountability that satisfies federal inspectors runs on every Cape Cod job.

Every installed scope carries a one-year written workmanship warranty, and it is in the contract. If something fails because of how it was installed, West Mountain Construction responds within two business days, inspects it, and corrects it at no cost. Materials are covered separately under the manufacturer's warranty, and West Mountain Construction handles that claim on your behalf. The warranty transfers to a new owner if you sell within the year.
