Shotguns, doubles, camelbacks and raised homes across Orleans, Jefferson, St. Bernard and St. Tammany. We know what is behind your walls before we open them — and we tell you about it in writing, up front.
Renovating in this city means dealing with conditions that a contractor from a drier, more stable market simply hasn’t met. Here’s what we handle as a normal part of the job, not a surprise add-on.
Orleans Parish Safety and Permits, historic district review (HDLC/VCC), and every surrounding parish's own process.
Formosan subterranean termites are a documented structural threat here. We identify termite and environmental damage during renovation and coordinate treatment with licensed pest control professionals.
We identify lead-paint requirements on pre-1978 homes at the estimate stage and coordinate lead-safe work practices and abatement with certified specialists as part of the project.
We identify water damage and moisture issues during renovation and coordinate mitigation and remediation work with licensed specialists as part of the project timeline.
Roofing, envelope, and structural repairs built to hold up against the next storm, not just patch the last one.
We document damage, help develop repair scopes, and coordinate with your insurance adjuster throughout the renovation process.
Shotguns, doubles, camelbacks, raised center-halls, and multifamily properties — each renovated the way it actually needs to be.
If you’re renovating the house you actually live in, you’re not solving the same problem as someone rehabbing a rental down in Gentilly or a shotgun double they just picked up at auction. You’re buying the next fifteen years of your life in that space. An investor is buying a return, on a clock, where every extra week on site is money leaking out.
So we run the two differently. If it’s your home, we build the schedule around your family still living there, and you get more say along the way. If it’s an investment or multifamily property, we lock the scope early and move fast to get units back in service — because a change order that shows up in week six is exactly what eats an investor’s margin.
What doesn’t change, no matter whose name is on the deed, is how we run the job: a written scope, a real schedule, one person you can actually call, and changes priced before they happen instead of argued about on the final invoice. That’s what “construction management” actually means around here — and it’s usually the difference between a renovation that finishes and one that just drags on.
Residential and light commercial across Greater New Orleans.
Whole-property scope: layout, systems, finishes and everything between demolition and the final walkthrough.
The two rooms where layout decides the result and the plumbing decides the layout.
Distressed and long-vacant property brought back to a habitable, lettable, sellable standard.
Unit turns and building-wide work, sequenced around occupancy and getting units back in service.
Tenant improvements, storefronts and small commercial fit-outs.
Scope, schedule, trades, permits and inspections run by one person who answers the phone.
Targeted work where a full renovation is not what the property needs.
Almost nothing goes wrong with the hammer. It goes wrong in the gaps —
the electrician sitting in his truck waiting on a decision, an inspection booked
after the work was already closed up, a change agreed in a hallway and
argued about on the final invoice.
Construction and project management is one of our eight services, but really, it’s how we run every single job. The scope gets written down before anyone shows up. Allowances get labeled as allowances instead of buried in a lump sum. We figure out the permit path — including whether your property sits in a historic district — right at the estimate stage, not three weeks in. And the trades get sequenced so nobody’s standing around on your dime waiting for someone else to finish first.
It also means you get one point of contact. You shouldn’t need three different phone numbers for the plumber, the framer, and the tile setter and you definitely shouldn’t be the one chasing them down to figure out what’s happening. That’s on us.
Orleans, Jefferson, St. Bernard and St. Tammany parishes and the surrounding communities. Shotguns, doubles, camelbacks, raised center-halls and post-war slab construction — each of which fails and gets fixed differently.
Meticulous attention to detail on every single project

On-time, on-budget delivery with clean workspace protocols
Completed renovations, rehabilitation and before-and-after work across the metro area.

Revitalizing aging and distressed properties with strategic improvements designed to restore functionality, appearance, and value.
Four stages. You will always know which one you are in.
You show us the house and tell us what you want it to become. We look at the parts you cannot see — the sills, the piers, the wiring, whatever the last owner covered up — and give you an honest number before anyone
draws a line.
A scope you can actually read, with allowances labeled as allowances. We check whether you are in an HDLC or VCC district and figure out the permit path now, not in week three. The price comes with its assumptions written next to it.
One person you can call, who picks up. Trades sequenced so nobody is standing in your kitchen waiting on somebody else. Inspections booked ahead. Anything that changes gets priced before it happens.
We walk the house with you room by room, build the punch list together, and close out every line on it before you write the last check.
Live from Google. Nothing on this site is a testimonial we wrote.
