Our services

We love what we do and most of all derive great satisfaction from making our customers exceedingly happy with our work.


Below are the main services we offer to our valued clientele.

  • Need help picking the perfect colours?

    Picking the perfect colours that compliment your room well can be a real challenge and discovering if it works or not after you’ve had your room painted is not ideal. May we recommend Sherwin-Williams’ ColourSnap® Visualizer? This sophisticated application allows you to try colours on different preset photos or simply upload your own photo to see how things will look in different shades and colours. Click Here to give it a try and discover the colour palette that is perfect for your next painting project.

  • How long will it take to paint my home?

    We are professionals so we can paint a room or an entire home quite quickly—all while ensuring every aspect is done with precision and care. Small jobs are usually completed in two days, while a major job could be two to three weeks depending on the magnitude and complexity.

  • How do you feel about recycling?

    We are a little unique when it comes to painters in that we are very green in our thinking. We take the time to wash out our paint cans, clean our drop cloths and minimize any unnecessary waste. At the end of a project our trash bin remains almost empty because we are meticulous to not induce waste. Just one way that we stand out from competitors if the environment is important to you as well.

  • Do you do specialty work?

    Yes. Whether it’s a railing, mantle, or a decorative hutch that needs staining or painting, we do it all. Most staining projects require sanding and special priming before the stain is applied. We take the time to ensure your specialty project looks fantastic when completed.

  • What about nail pops and wall repair?

    The first thing we do before any taping, trim work or painting is repair all holes, nail pops, cracks and small damaged drywall areas. We carefully repair, fill and sand each area to ensure a smooth and pristine finish once the paint is applied. Best of all, there is no extra charge for this service. It is our way of ensuring the final completed job looks the best it can be.

  • Why the name Helios?

    We take our job very seriously and have a warrior mentality to completing each project to the highest of levels. The sword and outstretched arm of Helios represents the precision and detail we endeavour to achieve with our clean, sharp lines making your fresh paint look crisp and clean. Helios  seemed to be the fitting name to identify with our business.

  • Do you remove stucco (popcorn) ceilings?

    Yes, it can be a tedious job sometimes but the finished work does look great and modernizes the look of your home. If your stucco has been painted, it does increase the labour significantly. Considering having your stucco removed? Give us a call and let’s discuss the options available to you.

  • What paint products do you prefer?

    We are willing to use any paint supplier you desire but our preference is to use Sherwin-Williams. Their products are very high quality, they can colour match to other suppliers and their expertise is second-to-none. We’ve found that over the years, they stand behind their product ensuring peace of mind when using any of their paints, stains or finishes.
