Yes. Crescent City Builders, LLC is a licensed Louisiana general contractor and carries insurance. We’re also a member of the Home Builders Association of Greater New Orleans, with our founder serving on its Board of Directors.
We serve Greater New Orleans including Orleans, Jefferson and St. Tammany parishes — New Orleans, Metairie, Kenner, Slidell, Mandeville, Covington and surrounding communities.
Custom home construction, commercial construction and build-outs, whole-home and kitchen/bath remodeling, home additions, green and energy-efficient building, hurricane-resistant construction and retrofits, and CAPS-certified aging-in-place modifications.
Yes. We provide free, no-obligation estimates. After an initial consultation and site visit, we deliver a clear, itemized estimate so you can make informed decisions.
CGP is a National Association of Home Builders designation for builders trained in energy-efficient, resource-smart construction. In practice it means lower utility bills, better moisture control and a more durable, comfortable home — built in as standard, not sold as an add-on.
Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist is an NAHB credential for contractors trained in modifications that help people live safely and independently at home as they age — things like curbless showers, zero-step entries and universal design.
We focus on the continuous load path (roof-to-wall-to-foundation connections), wind-rated and sealed roofing, impact-resistant windows and doors, reinforced garage doors, and elevation where appropriate. These measures can also qualify for wind-mitigation insurance discounts.
Yes. House elevation is a specialty in flood-prone areas. Raising a home above base flood elevation protects against flooding and can significantly reduce flood-insurance premiums.
Yes. We manage permitting and inspections with the City of New Orleans and surrounding parishes, coordinating with architects and engineers as needed so your project is fully compliant.
It depends on scope. A bathroom remodel may take a few weeks; a custom home typically runs 8–14 months. We provide a realistic schedule up front and keep you updated throughout.
Cost depends on size, finishes and site conditions. We’re transparent about pricing and provide itemized estimates so you understand exactly where your investment goes.
Yes. We stand behind our work with a workmanship warranty and conduct a detailed final walkthrough to make sure everything meets our standard and yours.
