Get matched with top contractors in Grosse Tete, LA

We called Jim to schedule a time to begin work on the driveway.  He scheduled a date when it would not be raining.  The driveway and front porch slab were removed on a Monday and the new driveway and porch slab were poured on a Tuesday.   The following Tuesday, Jim and his carpenter reinstalled...

It was a huge job, that lasted 3-1/2 months, and we lived in the house through it all! At the end of each day, when the workers left, everything was always swept up and all tools and materials were put away.  The house was always left usable at the end of the day no matter the state of work at...

Mr. Ferriday was one of the most responsive contractors I contacted. I added on 1200 sq.ft. of shop with engineered room in attic trusses. This was a very custom build and not your run of the mill slab and stick construction job. Some of the contractors contacted bulked right out of the shoute...

Jim Fereday with Homeworks of Louisiana came out to the house to provide an estimate for removing a 14’ long load-bearing interior wall that separated the Living Room and Den.  The project would consist of putting up a temporary support structure and installing a 14” x 3.5” x 14’ laminate beam to support the house where the wall stood.  Included in that project would be removal of two electrical outlets, a coax cable outlet (not in use), and a light switch.  I asked only for wall removal and a beam installation and I would do the finishing work.  Jim’s bid was a few hundred less than a competitor who tendered a bid without coming out to the house.  Honestly, Jim and that one other contractor were the only two bids we received.  I felt Jim could be trusted and that he knew what he was doing.  We accepted his bid and work was started about two weeks later; he probably could have done it sooner, but we were on vacation.  The real work was completed by a father-son team in one day.  When they came in the door around 8:30am that day, the wall was just as it had been when it was built 30 years ago.  By 6pm that day the wall was gone, the beam was in place, most of the electrical work was finished and the area cleaned up.  I was very impressed with the “Dan’s,” (Dan and Dan, Jr.).  They knew their stuff as well and were professional and fast.  Troy the electrician came in the next day and finished relocating the light switch and wiring a ceiling fan box I requested a couple of days before work began.  Troy was done in a couple of hours and was professional and competent as well.  Jim was easy to talk to and gave me several ideas on how to finish the beam install (e.g. Sheetrock it in, stain it, etc.).  I would definitely recommend Homeworks of Louisiana and use them again...

Great! Mr. Carter was very accommodating & prompt with scheduling. He arrived on time, had all the correct materials and tools needed - I just had to provide the paint. Mr. Carter and Mr. Sonny did excellent work and were very detail oriented. I would highly recommend them and will definitely...

I contacted Legacy Builders after their services had been recommmended by a friend. I moved into a house that is almost 50 years old and has never been through any major rennovations, so I needed help! I contacted the owner of Legacy (Louis) who could not have been more pleasant or...

Louis/Legacy was referred by a friend. Best referral ever! Louis listened to what I wanted and quoted us on the work in phases, as I requested. The quotes were reasonable an in line with others I had gathered. Lewis's subs were responsive and respectful. They started on time and gave a full...

Superior professional work. Addressed any problem areas to make things work exactly how I wanted them. From adding beam to support wall from bedroom to new kitchen area to moving gas and electric to middle island. Any outside contractors such as granite, were dealt with strickly through my main...

This is the second time we have hired Legacy Builders, 2013 and now, post-flood. Due to the overwhelming need for trusted builders during this time, we waited for them to become available. Legacy Builders is worth the wait. Legacy Builders rebuilt my Master Closet and provided more storage space...

When we first discussed the work we wanted done with various contractors, we were very specific in what we wanted and the quality we expected. Louis (Legacy Builders Owner) listened and asked questions that no one else asked. We were impressed with his apparent thoroughness and honest statement...
