# Joel’s custom Painting **Trade:** House Painting · **Address:** 131 Industrial Dr, Mashpee, MA 02649 · **Phone:** (774) 392-3620 · **Website:** https://joelscustompainting.com/ · **Languages:** English **Rating: 3.5/5** (medium confidence) — from 10 reviews across 3 sources. 90% of sentiment-scored reviews read net-positive. Last 6 months: 1 reviews, 1 negative. ## The honest read Joel’s Custom Painting is based in Mashpee and presents itself as a residential and commercial painting company offering interior and exterior work, cabinet painting, built-ins, shiplap projects, and power washing. The website identifies the business by name but does not state how long it has operated or identify an owner beyond the Joel name in the business title. People describing completed work repeatedly mention careful preparation, detailed finishing, and a broad painting scope. A 2023 homeowner described power-washing and staining an entire home, then basement painting and stair staining with custom stain matching and return touch-ups. Reviews from 2021 and 2022 describe a two-week, 3,500-square-foot interior project with extensive taping and repeated spraying, refinished kitchen cabinets, exterior trim and siding, and power washing. The written history is strongly positive but small: ten reviews from 2021 through 2026, with one recent one-star complaint about unsafe driving by a branded company truck. The complaint concerns road conduct rather than workmanship, while the other reviews praise responsiveness, professionalism, quality, and speed. The company appears suited to homeowners seeking detailed painting, staining, cabinet work, or power washing, including larger interior projects. Before booking, confirm the exact business name used for the estimate, since older reviews refer to BQ Painting, and confirm scope, schedule, and crew. **Strengths:** - Detailed preparation — reviewers describe extensive taping and repeated spraying - Custom finish work — stain combinations matched flooring and touch-ups followed - Broad painting scope — interiors, exteriors, cabinets, siding, and decks - Responsive crews — customers cite timely, professional project delivery **Concerns:** - Driving complaint — one recent review alleges unsafe conduct by a branded truck - Name continuity — older reviews refer to BQ Painting rather than Joel’s Custom Painting ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - The official website describes residential and commercial painting, cabinet painting, built-ins, shiplap projects, and power washing. _(confidence: high)_ - [Official Website](https://joelscustompainting.com) — “The official website identifies Joel's Custom Painting and describes residential and commercial painting, custom cabinet and built-in work, …” - A 2023 homeowner described power washing, staining, custom stain matching, basement painting, and return touch-ups. _(confidence: high)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUN4czlMSTh3RRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0xe3bba0e62a74da34!3m1!1s2@1:CIHM0ogKEICAgICxs9LI8wE%7C%7C?hl=en) — “5★ Joel and his team power-washed and stained our entire home a few years back and we were so pleased with them that we hired them recently …” - A 2022 review described a 3,500-square-foot interior project with extensive taping and repeated trim spraying. _(confidence: high)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUN1X3BIejRnRRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0xe3bba0e62a74da34!3m1!1s2@1:CIHM0ogKEICAgICu_pHz4gE%7C%7C?hl=en) — “5★ Joel’s crew came to stay at our building site for two weeks and painted most of the interior 3500sf.
