"Great! Mr. Erion came on time and took his time to do the job right. The wallpaper removal was difficult because it was 20 years old, but he was patient and prevented damage to the drywall."

"You have to factor in the pandemic and shortage of materials. We started with a pool that had not been renovated in over 30 years with leaves and hidden issues where pipes had not been properly glued. The 1600 sq ft of brick pavers were coming up and had air gaps. What was amazing was that he was able to get us the marble we wanted, glass tile and diamond brite selection. He and his wife came in and removed all the loose bricks, installed the new marble tile in the French pattern, and decko drain. They then creatively poked access for the new jets and got the main drain setup (which for some reason had been disabled). The prior setup was a 2 inch skimmer, no main drain, and a 1 inch jet. Now we had a 2 inch skimmer, 2 inch main drain, and 2 1 1/2 jets. We went with a smaller light which was much cheaper and has plenty of light with it's 14 different light variances, As far as the quality of work he is very particular and several times pulled everything out to redo a simple issue. An example was when the skimmer pressure test failed at high pressure. Another person would have let it go, but he pulled out all the decking around the skimmer to dig into the area about 2 feet below from the original work. He found the problem where original joints had not been properly glued and rectified the situation, (this was not his work, but from the original installation). This was an additional expense to him, but he did not charge us for this. The electrician was not very reliable, but Fabio would come and wait for him for hours to ensure that this got done. The tile was beautiful and Fabio asked if he could add additional tile to the floor for a flourish. It looked beautiful and my wife loved it. We went through a number of Diamond Brite people and he was able to get the McCintosh brothers to install this and that was beautiful. The finished job is sensational. When we get rain now the rain flows out and there are no puddles. Previously we had these for days. Fabio and Neci are very hard workers and very honorable. The price did change a few times, but there were huge reasons for this. Plumbing was not in place or broken as mentioned in this review which was not his fault. When you start a job there are sometimes unknown variables. Here we had leaks, air gaps and all sorts of issues which Fabio had to account for. The finished job was excellent! We would be willing to act as a reference and show the work he has done for everyone. My comments may come out as some negatives, but really only are meant to demonstrate all of the various challenges Fabio had to deal with to complete this job. There were no negatives with him or his work. There were several delays due to materials, waiting for the commencement documentation, and of course the electrician.... I've heard horror stories and know this went great. We had our first pool party and are extremely happy."

"They arrived exactly on time for the estimate and the removal. The price for the wallpaper removal and drywall repair was very reasonable. They completed the job cleanly and quickly, including removing and then reinstalling medicine cabinets and a large mirror. They even repaired damage to the drywall that I had done when I tried to remove the drywall myself. I will have them back to do some other ceiling and drywall repair in my home. I recommend them highly!"

"I could not ask for a more beautiful job. I had just short of two rolls of wallpaper and that's all the store had as it was on clearance. This made a very expensive paper affordable but it meant that in order to do the job there could be almost no waste. My intention was to have the lower half of the foyer wainscotted but my contractor jumped ship so Ron Couch jumped in and was able to make the wallpaper stretch. The pattern is expertly matched and it looks like a million bucks. Terrific job!"

First meeting with company's owner, Mr. Wolf, included a detailed assessment of work to be done:  Pressure washing, caulking, structural repairs, removal and replacement of wall decorations, furniture/gas grills & smoker, etc., from porches.  Mr. Wolf knows his business!  In less than an hour he provided me with a quote for the job (materials and labor) and an estimate of the time required.  Within 24 hours, he emailed me a detailed list of work to be done along with a contract to agree with all particulars.  Good business practices exercised!  No questions left to be resolved later on the job.


The crew showed up first thing the following Monday morning and commenced the project.  They worked steadily from early morning 'til late in the afternoon for four days, accomplishing everything on the to-do list with a few extra touches thrown in.  They were exceptionally professional, providing detailed work smoothly with minimum interference with my household routine.  The crew leader conscientiously consulted with me and/or my wife when anything came up during the process that needed clarification or a decision from us.  Job complete on time and priced as quoted.


What a pleasure to work with professionals in this day and time, when, too often, hit-and-miss, "pay me now and I'm out of here" is the order of the day.


These guys are good----I've already got a quote and tentative  commencement date for an interior paint job.


You're safe and satisfied with Mr. Wolf and crew.

"OMG! I highly recommend Giddens Painting for any type of painting services. Cody is so professional and friendly. I was there with my 3 kids, but he made me feel comfortable having him at my home. My deck looked like crap and he made it look brand new! He will be who I hire to paint my interior once I'm done remodeling. THANK YOU CODY!!!"

FAQs for wallcovering or wallpaper removal projects in Saint Johns, FL

You can determine your wall type through tactile and visual tests. Start by checking the surface by inserting a thumbtack, feeling the texture, tapping to listen for a hollow sound, and examining cut edges under outlet covers. Drywall feels soft with a hollow sound, while plaster is hard and solid. These checks are especially useful in older homes where plaster is more common.

After removing wallpaper, you can dispose of small amounts in your household trash. However, if you are removing wallpaper from your entire home, you’ll need to contact a waste removal service, rent a dumpster, or arrange a special pick-up with your municipality’s waste service. Wallpaper cannot be recycled, so it is important to keep it separate from the recycling stream to comply with local waste guidelines.

It takes a professional from several hours up to a full day to remove wallpaper from a single room. The removal duration depends on the type of adhesive, the age of the wallpaper, the condition of the wall, and the number of layers present. High ceilings and additional layers increase the time required, as extra care is taken to protect the wall surface while ensuring a complete removal.

Using fabric softener with water is an option for removing wallpaper, but its effectiveness is limited and depends on the type of wallpaper being used. This low-cost method is most effective on modern, less porous wallpaper and may not yield optimal results on vintage or textured varieties. It might also affect wall surface preparation for new coverings if the residue is not completely removed. For stubborn adhesive or textured surfaces, professional solutions are recommended to ensure a thorough removal without damaging the underlying wall.
