    Residential Construction Services in Greater New Orleans

    Residential Services in Louisiana — One Licensed Contractor for Every Home Project

    Cajun Home Services is an owner-operated, licensed Louisiana Residential Building Contractor (LA #889646, with a Roofing subcategory) based in Metairie. Our home market is Greater New Orleans and Jefferson Parish — Metairie, New Orleans, Kenner, Harahan, River Ridge, Gretna, and the Westbank. We also serve select projects in the Baton Rouge area, the Northshore, and communities across Southeast Louisiana. We handle roofing, kitchen and bathroom remodeling, home additions, structural repairs, new custom home construction, and storm damage restoration under one accountable, licensed team.

    As a general contractor, we do more than just send a crew. We manage permits, coordinate inspections, oversee subcontractors, and take full responsibility for the finished product. That level of professional oversight is what separates us from companies that show up, do the work, and disappear. When you hire Cajun Home Services, you get a partner who stays until the job is done right.

    This page is your guide to every service we offer. Whether you need a new roof, a bathroom renovation, a room addition, or a custom home build, start here to find the right path and learn what working with us looks like.

    Why Hire a Licensed Residential Contractor?

    Major residential construction — roofing, additions, structural work, full remodels, new builds — is regulated work in Louisiana. Hiring a licensed general contractor like Cajun Home Services (LA #889646) protects your home, your wallet, and your resale value. Here is what you actually get.

    Louisiana License #889646

    Verifiable through the Louisiana State Licensing Board for Contractors. Licensed as a Residential Building Contractor with a Roofing subcategory — authorized to pull residential permits across Jefferson Parish, Orleans Parish, St. Tammany, St. Charles, and beyond.

    Fully Insured

    General liability and workers' compensation on every project. If a worker is injured on your property or something is damaged, you are not personally liable.

    Permit-Aware Work

    Roofing, structural changes, additions, electrical, and plumbing changes require permits in Louisiana. We file them, schedule the inspections, and make sure the work passes.

    Dedicated Project Management

    Every job is managed through JobTread with a single point of contact. Schedules, change orders, photo updates, and inspections flow through one person — not a rotating cast of unreachable subs.

    Subcontractor Coordination

    Roofing, framing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, drywall, and finishes have to happen in the right order. We sequence trades correctly so projects do not stall.

    Owner-Operated Accountability

    Owner-operated business based in Metairie — not a truck and a phone number. If something needs attention after the warranty walkthrough, you can reach us.

    Major-Project Experience

    We handle full roof replacements, second-story additions, foundation and termite repairs, FORTIFIED installations, and ground-up new construction — not handyman tasks. That depth shows up in the finished product.
