Helm Paint

Helms paints live up to a customer expectations! I was at A another paint store across the street and stood there and waited for about twenty minutes no one acknowledged my presence or even greeted me! I left and drove across the street to Helm paint immediately upon walking in the door someone greeted me and ensured me that someone would be with me in few minutes....and literally a few minutes is all I waited for, meet an paint expert named Ronnie and the rest was smooth sailing he addressed all of my needs threw in discount and assisted me with some extra stuff and boom I was done! Helm Paint second experience and I must say y’all Rock! More...

I couldn't be happier with the service I received at Helm pain on Earhart Blvd. I went in one Friday after work and Mr. Ronnie Helm helped me find a paint color and reassured me that i would be able to tackle the project myself. Sure enough, he was correct. My new Kitchen color is beautiful. Great prices and Great Service. More...

I recently went into Helm Paint's store on Magazine Street near Washington Ave. with a chip of paint about the size of my fingernail. When the paint specialist offered the paint colors to match my chip, I thought the colors didn't necessarily match my chip; however, he showed me the inside color of my paint chip that had not been hit by the sun for years on my wrought iron fence and that was a perfect match to what he showed me and the actual color I wanted. It's great when a local store takes the time to help you solve your problem that you're not going to get from the bog box stores. More...

Shows that I haven't purchased my own paint in awhile since I've never reviewed Helm. I needed replacement paint for some touchup work at my house. I had the old cans (one was from 11 years ago) and brought them into Helm since that's who my painter had used. They took a quick look (rusty cans were not a deterrent) and said on you need X and Y. And with 15 minutes my colors were mixed and I was checked out and ready to go.Yes, the paint is pricey. 2 cans (one interior semi-gloss and one exterior) set me back $100 BUT the paint lasts. If I wasn't replacing doors, I probably still wouldn't have needed to repaint that back door.Staff was lovely and on it. Plus beaucoup parking out front. They even offered to carry my paint to the car, but I need to practice my Travolta from Saturday Night Fever walk. More...

Knowledgeable, clear answers, quality product and great staff. I love a good specialist and Helm on Magazine St. is an awesome paint store. Ask for Chris or Tanya for assistance that is particularly well-informed, thorough and kind. More...

I'd like to thank Joe Helm. He sponsored 5 gallons of paint and rollers to cover the Grafitti in my neighborhood. It is a constant battle, but what a huge help with staying on top of the problem. You are a good man, who obviously cares about this community. Thank you!!! More...

As a professional paint contractor in New Orleans since 1993 I appreciate the quality of the product and the excellent service of Helm's staff. We have always been treated as the most important customer they have. I appreciate that more than anything. More...

The employees at Helm paint couldn't have been more helpful...especially Burnie, Wadell and Stacy. We recently built a house and all of the paint was purchased at Helm. Stacy also helped me pick out every color...interior and exterior. Stacy's husband, Joe Helm, custom mixed the stain for my front doors and stairs at one location and delivered it to another so it would be more convenient for me to pick up. I also purchased my plantation shutters from Helm. I LOVE them. Jay installed them throughout the house in one day and he was great to work with. My husband and I built our house over 6 months and were in Helm paint almost everyday. We never had a bad experience. I don't know how we could have built our house without them! More...

By far the best paint & decorating store in the entire New Orleans & surrounding areas.. I hate to bash other companies, but I've done a lot of renovation & painting in my life and I can't think of a more well rounded and knowledgeable company that I've dealt with than Helm Paint. From Sherwin Williams to any big box stores, they all compare in comparison.  I was suckered in by the promise of better prices from the other guys, only to find out that I was being price gouged the whole time.For example: I was told by the manager at Sherwin Williams that if I got an account, I'd be given a contractors discount.. But what I didn't know is that their prices were so overly inflated to start that even if they gave me a 50% discount I was still over paying.I went to Helm Paint and told them of my experience with the other guys and to my surprise, I got better service, knowledge, and way better prices without even needing an acct.  I will never again shop for my paint at any other place. Hats off to the crew at Helm Paint... They're doing it right! More...

Helm paint is everything you want in a paint store, quality paint, great customer service, and a great sales team that will spend the time with you to determine which type and color of paint will meet your specific needs. I have tried all of the different types of paint from the standard to the specialty Aura. They cover well and the Aura has been really good in the bathrooms. More...

All the Helm's Paint stores:  Best paint and paint stores by far!  They are always so knowledgeable and helpful.  Amazing customer service.  Too many little things to name.  Just above and beyond.   Benjamin Moore Paints go on beautifully with a richness of color and excellent coverage and are no more expensive than anything else.

This by far the best paint store in town. They have Benjamin Moore paint which is as good as it gets as well as all the typical stains and finishes. They also have a great selection of metallic and other decorative paints as well as accessories for faux finishes. Finally, and this is the best, your name and the paint you choose goes into their computer so if you go back and need a bucket of that awesome yellow you painted your kitchen but can't remember the name--they have it. This is especially handy on custom stain and paint mixes which they also do. They will have the proportions in their system as well. Oh and fair pricing as well and great service. Don't go nowhere else , dawlin'. Ya wastin' ya time. More...

Great products, pretty well stocked store. You can't beat the folks that work here as far a good service. The store is so convenient and the employees take as much time as you need, are knowledgeable and are willing to work with you to tailor to your needs and desires (no strong upsell to more expensive products!)

We have painted more surfaces than I care to think about, and I've bought paint just about every place in town. So I know what I'm talking about when I say this is the best place to get your paint. I almost went to a big box store to get paint to match existing fence boards. Luckily, we came to Helm; otherwise I wouldn't have known that what I was trying to match was not actually paint, but an opaque stain. In other words, they know their stuff, and, they won't sell you what you don't need.Their premium paints are more expensive, but they are absolutely the best on the market. If you don't want to pay for premium, ask about the contractor grade. It's still a superior paint, and the help you'll get on your project particulars from these experts is priceless. Don't hesitate to buy brushes and other supplies here as well. Their pricing is competitive when you compare the same quality as the big boxes. More...

After countless trips to home depot, and thousands of dollars spent there on paint, I realized that paying a little extra for super high quality paint goes a LONG way and ends up being cheaper in the long run. stop buying paint from the big box stores and get it here now. More...
