All Cape Painting & Carpentry, LLC

All Cape Painting & Carpentry, LLC has worked out of 19 Quashnet Road in Mashpee since 2008, doing painting and carpentry on the upper Cape. Its listings describe it as a women- and veteran-owned and operated home improvement business, naming Ms. Jyl Hendricks as owner, with an Air Force service record behind the veteran half of that description. That is more than a marketing line. The company appears by name, street address and owner on a regional transit authority's disadvantaged business enterprise participation document, filed under the painting-and-wall-covering and finish-carpentry NAICS codes with Jyl Hendricks as the named contact — a public-agency record rather than a self-written directory profile. The work spans both halves of the name. Alongside interior and exterior painting, the carpentry side covers decks and porches, deck repair, doors and windows, framing, cabinets and finish carpentry. Three East Falmouth building permits filed between 2008 and 2020 show what that means on the ground: window and siding replacement, and reframing to swap casement windows for awnings. The one thing to settle before hiring is the registration. Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor registration 156887 stands in the company's name, and a check against the state registry returns it expired. BuildZoom's listing tells the same story from the other side — it records the number as inactive with an expiration date of 12 August 2015, and reports that Mass.gov's Consumer Affairs and Business Regulation showed the registration as having been cancelled at one point. HIC registration is what opens the state Guaranty Fund to a homeowner on a residential job, so ask about it directly and check the number yourself. For a Cape homeowner who wants a painter that can also hang a door or rebuild a deck, this is a long-established small outfit with a public-agency record standing behind its ownership claim. Ask for the current registration number, and for two or three recent references in your own town.
