Living in New Orleans means living with beauty, history, and weather that never plays fair. When you need roof restoration here, you’re not just fixing shingles. You’re protecting your home, your family, your business, your memories. Gulf Coast Construction understands the weight of that responsibility. We’ve restored roofs after hurricanes, helped families prepare for storm season, and strengthened historic homes that need extra care in this climate.
We know the fear that comes when the radar turns red. We know the pressure of humidity and heat slowly breaking down an aging roof. And we know the relief of hearing rain hit a roof you trust.
That’s the peace of mind we deliver.

New Orleans homes carry character — from Uptown cottages and Lakeview rebuilds to Gentilly ranch homes, Algiers Point bungalows, and historic properties along Esplanade. Each style faces its own roofing challenges, and every one of them deserves protection built for this region.
We handle:
Shingle Replacements and High-Wind/Hurricane-Rated Upgrades
Tile, Metal, and Slate Roof Restorations (perfect for older NOLA homes)
Flat Roof Systems for Modern Builds & Traditional Shotgun Homes
Skylight, Gutter, Soffit, and Fascia Enhancements
Your home shelters everything that matters. We make sure your residential roof keeps doing that, no matter the season.
From warehouse roofs along Jefferson Highway to restaurants in Mid-City and offices near Downtown, New Orleans businesses need reliable protection. A small leak in this climate can become a shutdown. That’s why our commercial services focus on durability, energy efficiency, and fast, no-nonsense repairs.
Our services include:
Leak Repairs, Moisture Control, and Preventative Maintenance
Flat Roof Coatings That Perform in Heat and Humidity
Metal Roof Restoration for Long-Term Savings
We work quickly and cleanly, keeping your operations running even while we restore your roof.

Storm damage in New Orleans is different. You don’t just deal with wind. You deal with wind plus rain, wind plus debris, wind plus hail, wind plus the fear of “Is my roof going to make it through this one?”
Our storm damage services are built for that reality:
We show up fast. We secure your property. Our professional roof restoration work helps you breathe again while the storm cleanup begins.
We’re not storm-chasers. We’re not out-of-state companies. We are your Gulf Coast neighbors — a team that knows New Orleans roofs because we’ve rebuilt them for years.
Here’s what makes us different:
Local Knowledge: We understand Orleans Parish codes, historic-home requirements, and the unique vulnerabilities of neighborhoods like Broadmoor, Gentilly, and the Westbank.
Expert Craftsmanship: From slate repairs in older homes to modern flat roof systems on rebuilds, we’ve seen every roofing challenge this city creates.
Weather-Resistant Materials: We use products designed for humidity, salt air, and hurricane-level wind — because anything less won’t survive here.
New Orleans homes deserve honesty, durability, and care. That’s what we promise on every project.
Because of the humidity and constant storms, New Orleans roofs often hide their damage until it’s too late. Watch for these early warning signs:
Missing or lifted shingles (a sign wind is getting underneath)
Water stains or damp spots on ceilings
Moss, algae, or mildew (very common here)
Sagging rooflines, especially in older homes
Higher energy bills due to poor ventilation
Even a small issue can become a major leak in the next heavy downpour. A free inspection now can save you from a 3 AM emergency later.
We work across New Orleans, Metairie, Kenner, Gretna, Chalmette, Harahan, River Ridge, Marrero, and the entire East & Westbanks.
We understand the quirks and demands of:
Historic Creole cottages with original slate
Uptown and Mid-City homes with mixed rooflines and older structures
French Quarter and Marigny buildings that require specialized materials
Lakeview and Gentilly rebuilds needing modern wind-rated solutions
Shotgun homes with long, narrow roof systems
Commercial buildings facing flat-roof drainage challenges
Every neighborhood is different. But the need for protection is the same.
Peace of mind is priceless in New Orleans, especially when storm season approaches. A quick inspection today can save you from costly damage tomorrow.
We’re proud to help New Orleans families and businesses protect what matters most — one roof at a time.

Gulf Coast's Replacement Process
We start by removing all existing shingles or tiles, then proceed to repair any issues with the original roof decking. We also replace flashing and other essential roofing components, especially in areas prone to leaks, such as around chimneys and roof-to-wall junctions.
Install durable weatherproofing and moisture-barrier underlayment.
Apply new shingles, tiles, or metal roofing.
Secure each shingle with Gulf Coast's nailing technique, exceeding manufacturer specifications.
Perform a thorough clean-up around your home, treating it with the same care as our own.
Remove and discard all debris, old materials, and packaging.
Ensure no nails are left behind by meticulously checking the area for any stray nails.
Conduct a comprehensive final inspection alongside our quality control supervisor to ensure everything meets our high standards.
