How much does it cost to paint a house on Cape Cod?

It depends on the size of your home, its condition, and how much prep the surfaces need. In Massachusetts, interior painting generally runs about $2 to $6 per square foot for walls (roughly $4.70 per square foot once you add trim and ceilings), and most homeowners invest between $2,000 and $7,500 on a typical interior project. Exterior painting on Cape Cod typically runs $3.00 to $6.50 per square foot, and older or pre-1978 homes that need extra prep or lead-safe work can reach $8.00 per square foot. Cape and Boston-area labor rates run about 20% above the national average, so national calculators tend to undercount. The only way to know your real number is a free, written estimate — call (774) 836-7424.

Q: Do you offer free estimates?

Yes. Every estimate is free, written, and line-itemed — with no obligation and no pressure. Jeff comes to your property in person, and you will have your written estimate within 24 hours. Call (774) 836-7424 to set it up.

Q: What kind of paint do you use?

We use premium coatings only — Benjamin Moore and Sherwin-Williams. On Cape Cod's coast, salt air and UV break down cheap paint fast, so we use durable, weather-tested finishes that hold their color and protect your home for years.

Q: Do you repair rotted wood and trim?

Yes — and it is one of the biggest things that sets us apart. We handle carpentry and rot repair in-house, before we paint. Rotted trim, soft shingles and damaged clapboard get fixed first, so you do not need a second contractor and your new paint job is not sitting on bad wood.

Q: What areas do you serve?

All of Cape Cod — Hyannis, Barnstable, Marstons Mills, Osterville, Centerville, Chatham, Yarmouth, Dennis, Brewster, Orleans, Falmouth, Mashpee, Sandwich, Harwich, Bourne, Eastham, Wellfleet, Truro and Provincetown — plus Plymouth, the South Shore and jobs throughout Massachusetts. Not sure if you are in range? Just call (774) 836-7424.

Detail. Quality. Excellence. Premium interior and exterior painting for homes and businesses across Cape Cod and Massachusetts, plus carpentry, roofing, siding and power washing. Free written estimate, usually in your hands within 24 hours.

About Jeff Marotta

When you call Marotta Painting, you get Jeff. Not a call center, not a salesman on commission. Jeff walks your property himself, listens to what you have in mind, and writes the estimate by hand. That is how it has worked for 33 years, and it is why people keep calling him back.

Jeff has been painting on Cape Cod and across Massachusetts since the early nineties, Hyannis, Barnstable, Falmouth, Chatham, and plenty of jobs over the bridges. He knows what salt air and Massachusetts winters do to a house, and he knows how to prep so the work actually holds. Full prep every time, Benjamin Moore and Sherwin-Williams on every job, and a crew that treats your place like their own.

And when there is rot behind the trim, a tired roof, or siding that needs attention, you are not chasing down a second contractor. We handle carpentry, roofing, siding, power washing and furniture repair in-house.

“Built on experience. Driven by excellence. Trusted for generations.”

Our Story

Built on Experience. Trusted for Generations.

Marotta Painting started with a simple promise: do honest work, treat every home with respect, and stand behind the result. Thirty-three years later, that is still the whole business plan. We are not a franchise and we are not a crew passing through, we are local, based in Hyannis, and we understand these houses. The cedar shingles that grey in the sea air. The clapboard and detailed trim on the older places. The salt, wind and Massachusetts winters that wear them all down. That knowledge shows up in how we prep and what we use, so your paint job protects your home for years, not months. Your home deserves nothing less than the best.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you offer free estimates?

Yes. Every estimate is free, written, and line-itemed, with no obligation and no pressure. Jeff comes to your property in person, and you will have your written estimate within 24 hours. Call (774) 836-7424 to set it up.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. Marotta Painting is licensed and fully insured in Massachusetts. That protects your home and gives you peace of mind from the first day on the job.

What kind of paint do you use?

We use premium coatings only, Benjamin Moore and Sherwin-Williams. On Cape Cod’s coast, salt air and UV break down cheap paint fast, so we use durable, weather-tested finishes that hold their color and protect your home for years.

How long does a painting job take?

It depends on the scope. Most interior rooms take one to two days each, and a full-home interior often runs three to seven days. A typical exterior job usually takes several days, depending on the size of your home, the condition of the surfaces, and the weather. Jeff will give you a realistic timeline with your written estimate.

Do I need to leave my home during interior painting?

No. Most homeowners stay right at home during interior work. We protect your floors and furniture, work room by room, and keep the space clean and livable. We will plan the schedule around your routine.

What is the best time of year to paint on Cape Cod?

The best window for exterior painting on Cape Cod is late spring through early fall, when temperatures are mild and humidity is lower, that is when paint cures properly and lasts. Cold, wet and freezing conditions can hurt adhesion, so we watch the forecast and schedule exterior work for the right weather. Interior work and cabinet refinishing can be done year-round, including winter, a great time to book so you are ready for spring.

Do you repair rotted wood and trim?

Yes, and it is one of the biggest things that sets us apart. We handle carpentry and rot repair in-house, before we paint. Rotted trim, soft shingles and damaged clapboard get fixed first, so you do not need a second contractor and your new paint job is not sitting on bad wood.

What areas do you serve?

All of Cape Cod, Hyannis, Barnstable, Marstons Mills, Osterville, Centerville, Chatham, Yarmouth, Dennis, Brewster, Orleans, Falmouth, Mashpee, Sandwich, Harwich, Bourne, Eastham, Wellfleet, Truro and Provincetown, plus Plymouth, the South Shore and jobs throughout Massachusetts. Not sure if you are in range? Just call (774) 836-7424.

Do you work on rental and vacation properties?

Absolutely. Cape Cod has thousands of second homes and seasonal rentals, and we paint plenty of them. We can schedule around your rental calendar, including the off-season, and use durable finishes and thorough house-washing to protect properties from salt, mildew and coastal wear.

Do you do more than painting?

Yes. Alongside interior and exterior painting we handle carpentry and rot repair, furniture repair and restoration, roofing, siding, power washing and deck staining. It is the same crew and the same standard, so you are not coordinating three different contractors on one house. Call (774) 836-7424 and tell Jeff what you need.
