Osterville, MA Contractor: Roofing, Siding and Remodeling
Coast Carpentry Home Group works out of 14 Parker Road in Osterville. This is the village we drive home to, so a roof, a wall of cedar shingles or an addition here is a job down the street, not a job across the bridge. We have more than 25 years of experience, our own crews, and a lifetime warranty on our workmanship.
Who Is the Local Contractor in Osterville?
Coast Carpentry Home Group is a licensed and insured contractor based at 14 Parker Road, Unit A, in Osterville. We replace roofs, install white cedar shingle siding, build decks, additions and new homes, and do masonry and interior remodeling for Osterville homeowners, with our own crews and a free written estimate on every job.
The shop is here
Our trucks leave from Parker Road every morning. If something needs a second look after the job, we are a few minutes away.
One company, the whole exterior
Roof, siding, trim, gutters, decks and masonry are done by the same company, so the flashing where the roof meets the wall is nobody else’s problem.
The owner runs the work
Fagner Rodrigues holds the Construction Supervisor license and is on the jobs. You are not handed to a salesman and a crew you never meet.
What We Do for Osterville Homes
Most of our Osterville calls are one of these. If yours is not on the list, call anyway.
Roofing
Asphalt shingle, red cedar, metal and flat roofs, torn off to the deck and rebuilt in the right order. See roof replacement, cedar roofing and flat and rubber roofing.
White cedar shingle siding
The cladding this village is known for. We repair the rot behind the old wall, flash every window and nail with stainless. See siding on Cape Cod.
Additions and remodeling
Second floors, dormers, garages with a room above, kitchens and baths. See home additions, kitchens and bathrooms.
Decks and porches
Composite, PVC and cedar decks, stairs, railings and screened porches, on footings sized for Cape sand. See deck building.
Masonry and patios
Chimneys, steps, walkways, retaining walls and patios. See masonry on Cape Cod.
New homes
Custom homes and teardown rebuilds from foundation to finish. See new construction on Cape Cod.
What an Osterville House Is Up Against
Osterville sits on the south side of the Cape. Nantucket Sound is in front of it and East Bay and West Bay cut into it, so very few houses here are far from salt water.
That shapes the work. The southwest wind comes off the Sound most summer afternoons and carries salt with it, so the south and west sides of a house age first. Plain steel nails rust and streak a shingle wall within a few seasons, which is why we use stainless fasteners in cedar and hardware rated for the coast on decks. Winter turns it around: a nor’easter drives rain sideways into the opposite walls and tests every piece of flashing on the roof.
Inland, around the ponds and under the pines and oaks, the problem is shade. A north roof slope that never dries grows moss, and the moss lifts the shingle edges. On those houses we look hard at attic ventilation and at what is growing on the roof before we talk about what goes on next.
None of this is unusual for us. It is every house within a few miles of the shop.
Permits and Review in Osterville
Osterville is one of the seven villages of the Town of Barnstable, so permits come from the town offices in Hyannis. We pull them for you.
Building permits
Permits for Osterville are issued by the Town of Barnstable Building Division at 200 Main Street in Hyannis, phone 508-862-4038. The town assigns a building official to the Centerville, Osterville and Cotuit district, and applications go through its online permit center.
Historic district review
The Old King’s Highway Regional Historic District covers the part of town north of Route 6. Osterville is on the south side, so its exterior review does not apply to a house here. If you also own in Barnstable Village or West Barnstable, it does there.
Work near the water
The town’s Conservation Division at 230 South Street in Hyannis, phone 508-862-4093, protects Barnstable’s wetlands and shorelines with the Conservation Commission. A deck, addition or wall close to a bay, marsh or pond can need a filing there before work starts. We handle that filing.
How a Job With Us Goes
The same order whether it is a roof or a whole house.
We come look
We walk the house with you, look at what is there and photograph what we find.
A free written estimate
