Why Lapeyre Roofing is the Best Choice for Bywater & Marigny Homes

Shotgun House Expertise:

The colorful shotgun houses that define these neighborhoods have long, narrow rooflines that require careful attention to drainage, ventilation, and the integrity of the continuous roof plane. We understand these historic building types and how to maintain or replace their roofs while preserving their distinctive character.

Mixed-Use Property Experience:

Many Bywater and Marigny buildings combine street-level commercial or retail space with residential units above. We understand the different requirements and can coordinate work to minimize disruption to both businesses and residents. Learn more about the Bywater and Marigny neighborhoods.

FORTIFIED Options for Historic Homes:

You can have both historic character and hurricane protection. FORTIFIED standards focus on installation methods and underlying systems. We can often achieve FORTIFIED certification using period-appropriate materials like slate or standing seam metal with enhanced fastening and sealed decking techniques.
