"Marcio did a great job on my steps. We encountered some unforeseen problems, but he took care of those items and completed the job above and beyond my expectations. This is the third project that he has done for my home, and I will continue to call on him when I need work done."

"I can’t recommend Kennon Crockett, P.E. enough. He’s been an incredible help through a really stressful situation with my home’s foundation and a city-side sewer line issue. From the start, he was thorough, professional, and honest — helping me avoid getting taken advantage of by a plumbing company and instead understand the real cause. He prepared a detailed, sealed inspection report and has continued to guide me step-by-step on how to get the city involved for proper repairs. He’s also been consistently communicative and genuinely invested in helping homeowners. I’ve already recommended him to coworkers and friends — and funny enough, my dad had him help years ago after Hurricane Ida which won me brownie points once he heard Crockett. That says a lot. If you want an engineer who’s knowledgeable, ethical, and truly cares about his clients, Kennon is your guy."

"Loay Jabbar provided the information I needed quickly and clearly. I immediately signed up for full coverages for our two homes because of the discounts offered and because of the quality of service that Loay is saying and promising Choice Home Warranty provides to its customers. I have bad experiences with other home warranty companies so I am hoping I found the best company that would deliver the best service."

"This is a follow-up review to the last one I wrote for this company, which wasn't too favorable. The owner was very concerned that I had a bad experience and gave me a complimentary day of painting with 3 painters. I almost couldn't believe it since my original service was a day with one painter, so I couldn't refuse even though I was apprehensive. It went much better this time. They listened to what I wanted, not just doing what they assumed I wanted. They worked 8 hours with a few short breaks. I can now say I am a satisfied customer and would consider using this company in the future.

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

Successful home building merges functional climate control with regional style. Elevated foundations protect against floods while offering visually appealing wraparound porches and decorative skirting. Steep-pitched metal roofs effectively manage heavy rainfall and high winds in Covington while matching traditional aesthetics. Open floor plans with high ceilings improve air circulation in the humid climate. Include a mudroom to handle wet weather gear and ensure compliance with neighborhood architectural guidelines.

Helpful?

Navigating FEMA flood zones and elevation requirements adds significant complexity to home building projects. Properties near local rivers require strict compliance with base flood elevation standards. Expansive clay soils and high water tables demand engineered foundation designs and careful soil testing. Heavily wooded lots in LA require extensive land clearing and stump grinding before construction begins. You must also follow strict local regulations and historic district design reviews.

Helpful?

Underestimating flood zone regulations is a major error during home building. Always secure an elevation certificate early. Plan your site drainage meticulously to direct water away from the foundation. Never skip soil testing, as expansive clay causes severe foundation cracking. Verify that your soil receives proper termite pre-treatment before pouring the slab. Select roofing and windows that strictly meet the wind load requirements for LA to withstand severe weather.

Helpful?

A properly engineered foundation is the most critical factor for home building success in Covington. Manage moisture with correct vapor barriers, crawl space encapsulation, and an accurately sized HVAC system. Build at or above the required flood elevation to prevent water damage. Maintain continuous termite protection contracts to preserve structural integrity. Hire experienced local professionals who understand the regional soil, drainage, and climate conditions to ensure long-lasting results.

Helpful?

Ignoring routine maintenance during home building and upkeep causes major issues in Covington. Clean your gutters and check drainage regularly to prevent moisture buildup, wood rot, and mold. Maintain your HVAC filters to control indoor humidity. Keep tree roots, pine straw, and leaf debris away from your foundation to deter termites. Always schedule annual termite inspections to protect your structural framing from severe damage in this humid environment.
