Ray Chatagnier grew up in Metairie, Louisiana. His father and grandfather are both in the construction business. Ray began working for his father when he was just 15 years old. Under his father’s direction he gained knowledge in the framing trade and by 20 years old he ran his fathers framing company. At 21 years old he married his childhood sweetheart, JeanneMarie and together they have three beautiful sons. Over the years, he gained experience in the building process, and enjoyed seeing a house go from a set of plans to someone’s dream home. After Katrina, in 2006, he made the decision to start his own company. Ray is unique in the building industry because of his firsthand knowledge in the field of framing. This allows him to not only work with new construction, but also with existing spaces. Ray specializes in turning old, lifeless homes into an updated work of art. He has worked hard to establish himself as one of the top builders in the greater New Orleans area, specializing in new construction and large scale renovations.
