Painting in Davis Shores
Single rooms or whole-house. Quality prep, two coats, clean lines, no rushed corners.
St Johns Handyman is a locally-owned handyman service based in Ponte Vedra Beach. We've been handling painting work across St. Johns County since 2010. Davis Shores is one of our most-served towns — about 37 minutes from our HQ.
Davis Shores paint work also splits by era. Pre-1950s homes need multi-layer interior prep and respect for original detailing; mid-century and contemporary homes are standard. COA may apply for visible exterior changes in the locally-designated historic-eligible sections.
Common Davis Shores painting jobs: multi-coat interior prep before repaint in pre-1950 homes, original-wood-window glaze and weatherstrip during paint cycles, standard repaints in mid-century homes, and exterior repaints within COA-allowed scope.
What we typically do in Davis Shores
Davis Shores has the most varied housing stock of anywhere we serve — original 1920s Mediterranean Revival homes alongside 1950s-1960s mid-century modern alongside contemporary new builds. The job mix reflects that range. Common Davis Shores jobs: plaster patching in 1920s and older homes, original-wood-window weatherproofing on Mediterranean Revival originals, settled-door rehangs on 1950s-1960s mid-century homes, interior repaints across the full age range, and standard exterior maintenance on Salt Run-adjacent and Matanzas River-adjacent properties. We see fewer brand-new builds because Davis Shores is essentially built-out.

Questions homeowners in Davis Shores ask about painting
How much does painting cost in Davis Shores?
Most painting jobs in Davis Shores run $250–$700. Pricing depends on room size, two coats, trim work, ceiling included, color change vs refresh. We give a firm written quote before any work starts — no call-out fee, no surprise bills.

Where is Davis Shores?
Davis Shores is on the north end of Anastasia Island, directly across the Matanzas River from downtown St. Augustine via the Bridge of Lions. The neighborhood faces Salt Run on one side and the Matanzas River on the other, with the Atlantic Ocean nearby east of Anastasia Boulevard.
How is Davis Shores different from St. Augustine Beach?
Same barrier island (Anastasia), but very different character. St. Augustine Beach is the separately incorporated city south of Davis Shores, more commercial, more tourist-driven. Davis Shores is part of St. Augustine proper (the mainland city), historically older, residentially smaller, and Mediterranean Revival-anchored architecturally.
How much to paint a room?
Most single rooms (10×12) with two coats run $300–$500 including patching and trim. Larger rooms or two-tone walls run higher. Ceilings add $100–$200.
Do you supply the paint or do I?
Either way. If we supply, we use Sherwin-Williams or Benjamin Moore mid-grade and pass through the cost. If you supply, we recommend you buy enough for two coats (about 1 gallon per 350 sq ft of wall).
