Gentilly’s housing stock is defined by two distinct realities. The Gentilly Ridge is home to older pre-flood homes with early 20th century construction characteristics — strong candidates for renovation that preserves the home’s character while modernizing function. The areas that flooded in 2005 were largely rebuilt with post-Katrina new construction — conventional layouts with builder-grade finishes that benefit significantly from whole home renovation investment. We work throughout all of Gentilly with experience in both contexts.

Yes. Whole home renovations are one of our primary services in Gentilly and throughout Orleans Parish. We manage complete home transformations from planning through final walkthrough, handling all trades, permitting, and project coordination under one roof. Our approach starts with a thorough assessment of every room and system before we write the scope.
Most whole home renovations in Gentilly take between three and six months depending on scope, the condition of existing systems, and whether the project involves structural changes or significant plumbing and electrical work. Projects that involve phased occupancy — where the homeowner stays in the home during renovation — often take longer than full vacate renovations. We provide a realistic schedule with every estimate.
Whole home renovation costs in Gentilly vary significantly based on the size of the home, the condition of existing systems, the quality of materials selected, and the extent of layout changes involved. A basic cosmetic update across all rooms costs far less than a full gut renovation that includes new plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and high-end finishes throughout. We provide a detailed written estimate after a thorough site visit so you have an accurate number before committing.
Yes. We manage all permitting and inspection coordination with Orleans Parish on every whole home renovation we complete in Gentilly.
