Marine Painters

Location: Hampton Roads, VA
Job Type: Full-Time | Temp-to-Hire Opportunities Available
Pay: Competitive + Overtime Available

Overview

We are currently seeking skilled Marine Painters to support active shipyard projects across Hampton Roads. If you take pride in clean finishes, proper prep work, and working as part of a solid crew, this is your lane.

Work is steady, projects are active, and for those ready to put in the hours, overtime opportunities are consistently available.

What You’ll Do

• Prepare surfaces by sandblasting, grinding, and cleaning
• Apply coatings, primers, and paints using brush, roller, or spray systems
• Ensure proper coating thickness and finish quality
• Follow all safety procedures, including PPE and ventilation protocols
• Work on ships, barges, and industrial marine structures
• Maintain tools and equipment in safe working condition

What We’re Looking For

• Previous experience as a Marine Painter or Industrial Painter (shipyard experience preferred)
• Knowledge of surface prep and coating applications
• Ability to work in physically demanding environments (heights, confined spaces, varying weather)
• Familiarity with safety standards and PPE requirements
• Reliable attendance and strong work ethic

Why This Role Stands Out

• Overtime = Higher Paychecks: Consistent overtime available for those who want it
• Temp-to-Hire Path: Opportunity to move into long-term roles
• Benefits Available: Health, dental, and telehealth options
• Steady Work: Ongoing shipyard and industrial projects
• Skill Growth: Work alongside experienced crews on large-scale marine jobs
