French Quarter handyman — respectful renovations on 200-year-old buildings.

Working in the French Quarter takes patience, the right insurance, and a craftsman who actually understands historic plaster, courtyards, and short-term rental turnover.

Frequently Asked

Answers for French Quarter homeowners.

Can you do major renovations inside French Quarter properties?+

Yes, with the caveat that anything affecting exterior visible elements requires VCC approval. Interior renovations — microcement bathrooms, plaster repair, fixture work — we handle directly.

How do you handle access for second-floor Quarter units?+

We coordinate with property managers for elevator/stair access and minimize disruption to neighbors. Most of my Quarter clients are repeat work because of that.

Is microcement allowed in historic French Quarter bathrooms?+

Microcement is an interior finish that doesn't alter the historic structure — it bonds directly to existing tile or substrate. It's a common upgrade in Quarter STRs and full-time residences.
