An extension adapter assembly includes a cylinder that has a first well extending therein and a second well extending therein. The first well insertably receives an end of an extension pole and the second well insertably receives a handle of a paint brush for attaching the paint brush to the extension pole. A nut is threadably coupled to the cylinder and the paint brush extends through the second nut. A compression fitting is positioned in the nut and the compression fitting compresses against the handle of the paint brush when the nut is tightened. In this way the handle of the paint brush is inhibited from being removed from the second well.
