A Lifetime of Experience
Attended U.S. School of Professional Paperhanging
Rutland Vermont -1976.
I had quite a career in Massachusetts until 2005
when I decided to move to Cape Town, South Africa
I got married! Conway Twitty and loretta Lynn’s
“Lousiana Woman, Mississippi Man” was nothing
compared to this!

My wife started Wallaroo Wallpapering in Cape Town
so that I could legally work, and we succeeded way
beyond expectations. We worked for the leading designers in
South Africa, and worked at many, many, prestigious
wine estates, and hotels.  
 
See our portfolio page for some photos and
descriptions of the wonderful places we worked and
the wallpapers we installed. 
 
In early 2019, though wallpapering was still flourishing in
Cape Town and South Africa, we decided to return to my
home country. The extremely high incidence of crime
in South Africa and the state of near-collapse
as regards to infrastructure made our decision easy.

We are very much enjoying being back in the good old USA
particularly in the Charleston, South Carolina area
and we are here to stay.  
 
I still enjoy installing wallpaper and put my all
into every job, regardless of size.
I want your wallpaper to look as
fabulous as you hoped.  
 
The testimonials below speak highly of my
professionalism and craftsmanship that you
CAN, and SHOULD expect of me.

Testimonials

"John was a pleasure to work with and prompt to get the job done. His work speaks for itself-beautiful. He was very knowledgeable about the process, and provided all the supplies. I will definitely ask him to help me with some more wall-covering projects in the future and I strongly recommend him."
