Job description

Marine Painter Jobs in Hampton Roads | Overtime Opportunities + Growth Potential

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.

Candidates with an Active Secret Security Clearance are strongly encouraged to apply. Active security clearances are a significant advantage for current and upcoming shipyard opportunities.

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
Ready to Get Started?

If you're a Marine Painter in Hampton Roads looking for steady work and the chance to earn more through overtime, we want to hear from you.
