    ** lived up to his company name when he took on the painting and wallpapering of our hallway and living room. He was reliable, fully transparent and did outstanding work.

    JD's work was top-notch. Our job was one of the three worst he said he had ever seen, and it turned out SPECTACULAR!! He painted our living room and had to install wallpaper on a main wall and hallway. His work was professional. He kept us informed throughout the process even though my wife was out of state. To say we are happy with the work done is a major understatement. The Pickle Guru is one of the best trade companies we have ever dealt with. He saved us money on the materials and helped us to troubleshoot many areas that needed special attention. The Pickle Guru should be your one-stop shop for painting and wallpapering. If the job can be done, he is the one to do it.

    I recently had the pleasure of working with JD, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From start to finish, he was incredibly communicative, ensuring I was informed every step of the way. His straightforward approach made the entire process smooth and hassle-free, even when we hit a few bumps with the wonky walls in my house.
    The quality of his work is truly outstanding. The wallpaper looks absolutely stunning, with flawless attention to detail and perfect alignment, despite the crooked canvas he was provided. He went above and beyond to make sure everything was done to perfection, and it shows. On top of that, JD is extremely thoughtful and considerate, making sure to clean up after himself after each day and make sure my dogs couldn't get into anything. He even baked us banana bread one morning!
    I highly, highly recommend The Pickle Guru for anyone looking for a professional, reliable, and talented wallpaper installer. Thank you for transforming my space into something beautiful.

    When I first met J.D. he exuded kindness and professionalism. He takes pride in his work, and it shows in his attention to detail. He makes the customer feel important and has a genuine love for what he does. He wallpapered an accent wall for us in a small bathroom, and his work is perfection. He is a true artist. My husband and I are so happy with the end result. I would highly recommend The Pickle Guru for your next wallpaper job.

    JD (aka The Pickle Guru) is an incredible artist in wallpaper installation! I've never seen anyone take such care in every aspect of the work. No detail is too small for his intense attention, and he doesn't stop until EVERYTHING is perfect. My wallpaper pattern contains soft tree images, and he placed them so the EXACT same leaves on every tree line up at the ceiling--on three contiguous walls! On top of it all, he is just a terrific, thoughtful guy, and it was a pleasure to have him in our home. I cannot recommend him highly enough. He is a gem!

    It was perfection in the making. JD did not waste a minute. He went from one project to another and was very sensitive of his time on the job so as not to overcharge. Totally will use his services again. Next up - utility room and possibly deck staining!!! Thank you JD

    The Pickle Guru is AMAZING! He did my backsplash in the kitchen and it turned out simply beautiful. Breath taking & extraordinary. The time, patience, and, artistic craft that he has is shown through his work. Hands down, I recommend The Pickle Guru!!!

    JD just finished a wallpaper job for me (it was my first!). It turned out beautifully. He is pleasant and completed the work promptly. ** has a passion for detail and kept me well informed along the way. I didnt know much about the art or science of wallpapering, but Im so much more knowledgeable after this experience. I shared pictures with my family and they couldnt believe the difference. **, thank you very much for a job well done.

    My husband and I truly appreciated JD keeping us updated on all of the steps taken to remove our wallpaper, how the walls were going to be repaired before the new wallpaper was to be installed. ** is a great person to work with, on time, very neat, very professional and left our home clean and we are very happy with the job he completed. We would definitely recommend ** and we know you will be just as happy as we were.

    We are so very grateful for JD and his creativity. Hes kind of A Big ****. Hehe. Get it! The time and focus he put into his art shows in every space he touched. I truly appreciated the way that he would include my husband and I through out the process, making suggestions, asking what we liked or didnt like, and explaining things in detail. We have a family of four small children and after explaining our concerns for, what if the kids get something on it, he came back to us with suggestions and things we could do to possibly prevent or care for the paper. **, along with *****, showed passion in what they do and that gave me great confidence. I appreciated their timeframe for working hours and communication. I was hesitant on spending extra money on vent covers and outlets, but it was so very worth it!! Everything lined up so beautifully. It was clear to see that he cared about the results as if it were his own home. Thank you Pickle Guru and *****. We hope to have you back soon for our next project.
