Our Story
Welcome to OnePoint Alliance!
I wanted to take a moment to personally introduce myself and share the story behind OnePoint, our family-owned business that I’m incredibly proud of.
It all started with a passion for painting and improving homes. My brother-in-law, William Helu, and I have deep roots in the painting industry. I began my journey with Student Painting while attending UC Davis, and William gained his experience working in Reno, Nevada. In 1995, after marrying William’s sister, we decided to launch HSP Painting Company. Over the years, we expanded into California, Idaho, and Colorado. Like many, our business faced challenges during the Great Recession.
I relocated to Austin to rebuild and reopened the business alongside my children. William, meanwhile, continued to operate successfully in the Reno/Tahoe area.
In 2019, I recognized a need in Austin to bring together high-performing contractors who shared the same vision of quality and service. That’s when I founded OnePoint Contractors Group. Even during the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic, we were able to expand our services, adding make-ready, design and staging, renovation, and construction to our offering
OnePoint, a Combination
That Works
By 2023, we merged HSP Painting Company and OnePoint Contractors Group into one unified company: OnePoint. Our mission is simple: to deliver an exceptional customer experience through what we call our “Four Points of Value”
- Exceptional Customer Experience
- Exceptional Quality
- Exceptional Timing
- Exceptional Value
These core principles guide everything we do. Today, we’re proud to offer services such as:
MAKE-READY
PAINTING
DESIGN & STAGING
RENOVATION & CONSTRUCTION
As a family business, it means the world to me to provide not only quality services but also a personal, trustworthy experience. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and show you firsthand what sets us apart.
Thank you for considering OnePoint for your next project.

I am proud to introduce our family’s business to you and your family
