Who We Are
About Us
We’re a proud Chalmette-based, family-owned construction company with deep Louisiana roots. For over 15 years, we’ve helped families across Southeast Louisiana and New Orleans turn their home dreams into lasting legacies. Our story began long before we officially opened in 2008 — with industry roots reaching back to the 1980s. Today, that same dedication to honest work, craftsmanship, and community values drives everything we do.
We believe in working as a team which makes us stronger - when we pull in the same direction to get things done. Southern Builders ensures that all jobs have the highest quality and workmanship possible.
We believe in transparency while working with our clients. We treat each job like it’s our own. Our credibility comes from the hard work and dedication we put into each job-site, using different challenges as unique opportunities to grow.
We Believe the quality of our work speaks for itself through the testimonies of our clients. Our goal is to ensure that our clients receive the highest quality service possible throughout the building process.
