They are professional and take care of every detail. Above all they are trustworthy and stand behind their work- we rebuilt my dads home and I live out of town and couldn’t come in weekly so the Tysons would email or text me pics of the progress. Before each phase was about to start, Patricia would work with us to pick out colors, styles, fixtures and appliances. She went above and beyond to narrow down choices since I couldn’t come in often and I trusted her to make some decisions. The vendors were all so friendly and easy to work with as far as helping to stay in budget and making final choices. Larry handled all of the construction side of things and kept me posted with each step along the way. The home was actually finished ahead of schedule and we couldn’t be more pleased with the whole process from start to finish! Thank you Larry, Patricia and Zack!! **★★★★★ — jeffersonstreetideas, May 2021** > We would highly recommend Tyson Construction to anyone planning to build! Tyson Construction gave us exactly the house we wanted down to the smallest detail. Their experience and expertise was invaluable during the process when tough decisions presented themselves . Throughout the stages of building we had complete confidence in the fact that their intention was to give us the finished product that began our dream of a custom built home and we were NEVER disappointed! **★★★★★ — Curtis and Brenda Portinari, May 2021** > I was very apprehensive to begin construction on a new home at age 74, but after meeting with the Tyson's and the architect they recommended, my greatest fears were relieved. They were in constant contact with us during the entire process, giving us the names of the places that they used for the appliances, lights, flooring and tile. All of the sub contractors were very helpful and spoke highly of the contractors. If there was any question about the construction work or any concern that we had, al I did was text or email them and I had an answer either that evening or early the next morning. The work was finished in a timely manner and if there was any "little" problem, even after we moved in, Larry Tyson took care of seeing that it was rectified asap. I am totally pleased with my new home and highly recommend Tyson Construction LLC. Larry, Patricia and Zachary Tyson were very pleasant and patient people to work with. **★★★★★ — CHARLES SEIBERT, Feb. 2020** > Great Company and people to have building your dream home. Tyson's work quality is second to none. They are extremely knowledgeable, professional and easy to work with. If we ever had to build again, we would use Tyson in a heartbeat. **★★★★★ — HU-842163488, Jan. 2020** > Love my Tyson home. I actually found them on the Houzz.com website. The team was very easy to work with, answers questions quickly and let me know up front what would fit in my budget. People still stop in the street after being in the house a year to tell us how beautiful it is. **★★★★★ — Gary & Claudia Levy, Dec. 2019** > Thoroughly impressed with their commitment to timeliness, daily communication updates, quality of work, attention to detail and subs. All on time and within budget **★★★★★ — Sydney Sago, Aug. 2019** > When my husband and I decided to build, we had no idea what to expect and had little knowledge on the process. We met with several contractors and none came close to the Tysons. We were immediately impressed with their professionalism, friendliness, and knowledge on all things construction. They thought of everything and guided us through what could have been an extremely stressful process with ease, and quickly handled any issues that arose. I would recommend them to anyone without hesitation! **★★★★★ — Donna Sullivan, June 2019** > Tyson Construction – Sorry no horror story here. From start to finish our experience with Tyson Construction for our custom built home in Old Metairie was a dream. My husband and I contacted and met with several contractors before meeting with Tyson Construction about building our new home. The Tyson’s immediately made a great impression on both of us. Choosing Tyson Construction to develop our house plans and build our new home was one of the best decisions we have ever made. The Tyson Team, Patricia, Larry and Zach are experienced, organized and professional builders as well as patient, friendly and courteous. They were very patient with us as we emptied and tore down our old house before building new. The Tyson’s listened to us as we explained the vision we had for our new home and with their incredible attention to detail they truly delivered a beautiful home that surpassed our expectations. Their vendors and sub-contractors were extremely helpful, friendly and ready to answer our questions, and we had a lot of them! We can’t thank Tyson Construction enough for making our first custom home experience a pleasurable one and for delivering us a beautiful, quality home on time and within budget! I highly recommend considering Tyson Construction for your building needs. **★★★★★ — Arden Ballard, June 2019** > Tyson helped us recently with a rental renovation. We installed an entirely new kitchen, floors, paint and electrical work. The crews were swift, polite and good at their crafts. If a problem came up, Zach was quick and professional handling the situation. I have no regrets using Tyson for our renovation and will call them again for our next job! **★★★★★ — lizlorio, June 2017** > Tyson Construction built my husband and my single family home. They build every house as if they are building their own with incredible attention to detail. They were great to work with and promptly responded to all communications. I would highly recommend them to anyone. **★★★★★ — Mike Kelley, May 2017** > We were very pleased to have Tyson Construction build our new house. From developing our plans through final completion, Patricia, Larry and Zach were a pleasure to work with. We found them to be not only experienced and professional builders, but also friendly, courteous and patient. They kept everything on-schedule and well organized, coordinating building crews and supplies so that everything went smoothly with no delays. They were on-top of everything during construction, checking onsite that the work was done right. I was also pleased with the subcontractors and vendors that they use, who were polite and friendly. Patricia, Larry and Zach answered all our questions promptly and went out of their way to satisfy our concerns and requests. They built us a quality home with attention to detail and craftmanship. I can’t say enough good things about them and would highly recommend Tyson Construction for your building needs. **★★★★★ — Brian Waldrep, Feb. 2017** > My family highly recommends Tyson Construction for any renovation or new construction. From the first meeting with Larry, Patricia and Zach, we felt so comfortable and at ease that they would do an amazing job, and we were correct! We had our entire house renovated after it was flooded and Tyson Construction made the entire process from the first meeting, to picking our new items from their vendors, to the final walk through very simple. Larry, Patricia and Zach are very professional and their work definitely shows it. Again, if you are in the need of a little renovation to your home, or new construction, please contact Tyson Construction. You will not regret it! ## Selected projects - [Exteriors](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/exteriors-pj-vj~3497558) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 113 - [Kitchens](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kitchens-pj-vj~3497552) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 103 - [Baths](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/baths-pj-vj~3497556) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 59 - [Interiors](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/interiors-pj-vj~3497559) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 35 - [Closets](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/closets-pj-vj~3497664) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [Staircases](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/staircases-pj-vj~3497582) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 13 - [Built Ins](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/built-ins-pj-vj~3497574) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 26 - [Laundry Rooms](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/laundry-rooms-pj-vj~3497575) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - [Doors and Millwork](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/doors-and-millwork-pj-vj~3497557) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 19 - [Kitchen Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kitchen-remodel-pj-vj~2088389) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 20 - [Operation Finally Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/operation-finally-home-pj-vj~1528015) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 43 - [Contemporary Cottage](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/contemporary-cottage-pj-vj~1472072) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 40 - [Mid Century Modern Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/mid-century-modern-renovation-pj-vj~2235719) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 23 - [Southern Charm Bath Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/southern-charm-bath-remodel-pj-vj~1097929) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 27 [See all 14 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/general-contractors/tyson-construction-pfvwus-pf~2080646189) ## Ideabooks - [N and B](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/116105694/list/n-and-b) — 9 ideas - [SC](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/108270728/list/sc) — 7 ideas - [Gardens](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/39665748/list/gardens) — 13 ideas - [Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/29935803/list/kitchen) — 8 ideas - [Floors](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/45048402/list/floors) — 5 ideas - [Brackets](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/46231640/list/brackets) — 5 ideas - [Roofs](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/45050931/list/roofs) — 3 ideas - [garages](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/18785939/list/garages) — 6 ideas - [Bathrooms](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/16192682/list/bathrooms) — 16 ideas - [outdoor ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/18476667/list/outdoor-ideas) — 4 ideas - [Mantles](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/23925234/list/mantles) — 7 ideas - [Tile](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/14311455/list/tile) — 5 ideas - [office](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/16711630/list/office) — 2 ideas - [Closets](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/16281971/list/closets) — 3 ideas - [Wainscoting](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/14319077/list/wainscoting) — 9 ideas - [tysonconstructionnola's ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/12410755/list/tysonconstructionnola-s-ideas) — 8 ideas [See all 16 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/tysonconstructionnola) ## Community Q&A **Q: Love this coffee table!!
