Looking for a GC in New Orleans

Does anybody have any general contractors they recommend in the NOLA area? I'm looking to buy a quadplex that is going to need some substantial reno. Would prefer a smaller contractor who can do quality work for a good price and do it quickly. Thanks!

Haven't you heard the old joke about construction?  "You can have it good, you can have it fast, and you can have it cheap.  Pick two!"

Sorry, I couldn't resist telling my corny joke!  Alas, I wish I could give you a recommendation, but my husband and I are largely DIYers and have never used a GC.  But you have my sympathies.  We took on two Algiers duplexes in 2019 (next door to each other, same seller) that both needed substantial work.

Good luck with the quad.  If you end up needing a new roof, I highly recommend Garcia Roofing.
