An entire interior, including closets, plus sanded and stained decks: a September 2025 Google reviewer described that combination of work by Cole and the Bushnell Painting team. The customer said the crew arrived on time every day, finished within the estimated time, stayed neat and clean, and also did light carpentry. The Lakeville Journal describes Bushnell Painting LLC as serving Massachusetts and Connecticut. The company's website says it has 21 years in business, offers free estimates, and uses brush painting as well as spraying and automatic taping machines. In November 2023, one Google reviewer described a meticulous paint job inside and outside their house. Another, writing that same month, said the company had painted several rooms and their entire house the previous summer. A separate November 2023 reviewer described repeated repairs and repainting of an aging pool over the preceding five years, saying the crew worked quickly despite weather demands. An April 2025 customer praised the crew's work reaching high, tricky spots. Google lists a 4.6-star average from 22 ratings. Local news coverage also links Bushnell, identified by the Lakeville Journal as the company's owner, to a murder case involving a shared-job dispute. The Lakeville Journal attributes an allegation about stolen money to prosecutors, while the Berkshire Edge describes a conflict over a shared job. Those are attributed news accounts, not customer complaints about the quality of painting.

“Bushnell is a member of the Sheffield Planning Board and operated Bushnell Painting, a residential painting contracting company, according to corporate filings.”
“Bushnell operated Bushnell Painting out of Ashley Falls, while Moore operated Perfect Stroke and Maintenance out of Winsted, Conn. The press release states, “Prior to the murder, there was a conflict between the Defendant and victim regarding a shared job.””
“He is the owner of Bushnell Painting LLC, which services Massachusetts and Connecticut. Prosecutors said Bushnell believed the victim had stolen money from him in connection with a job they were working on together.”
Cole and his team are highly professional, did an exceptional job, they are neat and clean and always courteous. We had our entire interior house painted, including closets, and they were on time every day, completed the job in the estimated time, and went above and beyond in many cases. They also did some light carpentry work. They also sanded and stained the exterior decks of the house, and thry even changed some lightbulbs that were otherwise unreachable at 30 feet high. Just a great experience and I highly recommend them.
We so appreciate the Bushnell painting crew. They did a great job reaching high tricky spots! Very professional and easy to work with.
It's easy to tell Cole and his guys have been painting for decades. Check out his website for completed jobs, top level stuff. If you want a bargain one coat hack special call someone else. Bushnell Painting did a meticulously good paint job on the inside and outside of my house.
Bushnell Painting does great work. I have had them do both inside work on a few rooms and paint my entire house last summer. Cole makes sure the job gets done right.
Cole and his team have multiple times over the last 5 years done excellent work repairing and repainting my aging pool. Each time they handle the job professionally and are in and out quickly despite constant weather demands. Thank you!
