A Contractor Who Knows How Prairieville Homes Are Built
Prairieville grew fast. Most of the housing stock along Hwy 42, Hwy 73, and Hwy 44 went up between the late 1990s and the 2010s — brick-veneer slab-on-grade homes with architectural shingle roofs, closed kitchen layouts, and builder-grade finishes that are now twenty to thirty years old. Those homes are hitting the age where the roof, the primary bath, and the kitchen all come due at once, and where slab movement from Ascension Parish clay starts showing up in the drywall.
That is exactly the work we do. Cajun Home Services is a licensed Louisiana residential building contractor running roof replacements, kitchen renovations, bath remodels, additions, and structural repair scopes across the Baton Rouge–Ascension corridor. Every project is permitted, insured, and documented — see the full range of residential construction services we provide.

Prairieville is unincorporated, which trips up homeowners and out-of-parish contractors alike. There is no Prairieville city permit desk — residential permits, plan review, and inspections all run through the Ascension Parish Permit Office. Additions and new construction go through zoning and setback review, drainage impact matters on the flatter lots off Hwy 74 and Hwy 73, and elevation certificates come into play near Bayou Manchac and the Amite River drainage.
We file the application, carry the plan set through review, schedule every inspection, and keep the approved card on site. You are not chasing the parish, and you are not discovering a missing permit at resale. Read more about how we run projects on our process page.
Hurricane & Roof Resilience Inland
Ida proved that inland Ascension Parish takes real hurricane wind. We build roofs to survive it: sealed roof decks, ring-shank nailing patterns, rated starter courses, and properly fastened ridge and hip components. Those are the same details that earn an IBHS FORTIFIED Roof designation, which carries a mandated Louisiana insurance discount and can be paired with the state grant program.
Comparing systems first? Our roofing materials guide breaks down architectural shingle, standing-seam metal, and low-slope options, and the FORTIFIED program guide covers what certification actually requires. When a storm has already hit, start with storm damage repairs.

Remodels, Additions & New Construction in Prairieville
The most common Prairieville remodel we run is a wall-out kitchen: removing the load-bearing wall between a closed 1990s kitchen and the living room, carrying the load on a flush beam, then rebuilding cabinetry, electrical, and flooring across the whole footprint. Second most common is the primary bath — converting a garden tub and framed shower into a single large curbless walk-in with proper waterproofing rather than the builder-grade pan that failed.
On the larger end, families in Prairieville tend to add rather than move: an in-law suite, a fourth bedroom with bath, a home office off the rear elevation, or a covered outdoor living space with an outdoor kitchen. Those are true addition projects — new footing, tie-in framing, roof marriage, HVAC load recalculation, and parish inspection. For homeowners doing everything at once, our whole-home remodeling service sequences the work so you are only displaced once.
Building new on acreage or an infill lot? We handle custom new construction, and homeowners who want a faster start can review our ready-made floor plans. Where the slab has already moved, start with foundation repair, termite damage repair, or water damage repair before finishes go in.
