our story

Splash Painting began over 35 years ago when Debbie and Tony Filice started the business together with a simple goal, to provide honest, high-quality painting services to their community. Debbie built her career in the trade at a time when very few women were in the industry and became the first woman to join the Hamilton Painters Union, a milestone that reflects the dedication and skill she brought to the profession.

As the years went on, the business became a true family tradition. Their son Angelo joined the trade, and today Debbie’s grandson Shawndel continues the legacy as the next generation of the family business.

Although Tony has since passed, the work he helped build continues every day. Debbie, Angelo, and Shawndel still paint together, bringing the same pride, experience, and care to every project.

Splash Painting is a licensed painting business specializing in residential and commercial interior and exterior painting throughout the Greater Hamilton area. Debbie is also known for her specialty work, including detailed piano stair finishes and beautifully refinished wood staircases.

More than three decades later, Splash Painting remains what it has always been: a family-run business built on trust, quality workmanship, and pride in every job.
