LaFosse Construction is a residential and commercial general contractor, fully licensed and insured - a premier builder of high quality, custom homes.

Building exclusively in both Lafayette & Baton Rouge traditional neighborhood developments, LaFosse Construction has earned its reputation by bringing together all the elements necessary to successfully build the home of your dreams.  From the solid craftsmanship and superior quality of design elements to the exacting architectural details and standards, LaFosse Construction homes reflect a balance and harmony essential to creating an environment for quality living.

Since 1979, the family-owned and family-run business has grown through repeat business and word of mouth.  Their focus is always to make the building process, from start to finish, a satisfying experience, providing professional, personal service coupled with a commitment to quality construction standards and timeless design.

LaFosse Construction is large enough to manage million dollar residential or commercial construction projects and at the same time small enough to provide each client with uniquely creative and personal details.  With a 24-hour answering service and a friendly, committed staff, client satisfaction is LaFosse Construction's foremost goal.  As a preferred builder in the traditional neighborhood developments of River Ranch and Willow Grove, LaFosse Construction has been a factor in the national acclaim of these developments and a major contributor to the lifestyle these neighborhoods create.

### Reviews

**★★★★★ — livasjp5, Nov. 2014**

> LaFosse Construction built our home in the Settlement at Willow Grove in Baton Rouge, LA.  Neither my husband nor I had ever built a home so we were novices in making decisions related to the design and construction.  Clayton and Gayle helped us every step of the way from working with the architect to selecting materials to landscape design.  They used high quality materials and their sub-contractors were professional and courteous.  There were minor problems along the way (as in any construction project) but they worked quickly to resolve the issues to our satisfaction.  We were able to move into our new home well before the anticipated completion date. We could not be more pleased with our home and with the services of LaFosse Construction and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone planning a new home.

**★★★★★ — coopercrhb, Oct. 2014**

> LaFosse Construction built our dream house.  The result was more than we could have wished for.  They were professional, experienced and easy to work with.  LaFosse Construction was involved in every phase of our house, from meeting with the architect, to reviewing the subdivision restrictions, to construction and finally to move-in.  We could not have asked for a better builder.  Every question or potential problem was dealt with professionally, quickly and intelligently.  My husband and I would not hesitate to recommend this company.

**★★★★★ — baole212, Oct. 2014**

> It was great working with Lafosse Construction. They built my house in the Settlement at Willow Grove in Baton Rouge, La. The house is more contemporary than others and they were able to work with me and get their subs to help towards meeting my expectations on the finish house.

**★★★★★ — nahs1969, Oct. 2014**

> Clayton and the entire Lafosse team were excellent. They built a custom house for us from one of their own designs. All questions and concerns were reviewed thoroughly, discussed with us and multiple options were offered. Clayton was always very accessible and answered phone calls or texts within minutes. When we changed our minds on any design, material , or color choice , they always accommodated our wishes. The house was completed on schedule and within budget. I would highly recommend this team to anyone considering building a new hom.

**★★★★★ — Ferris Land Design, Sept. 2014**

> I have worked with Gayle and Clayton on several projects over the past 10 or more years. They stay on top of things and their construction is of the highest quality. It is a pleasure for them to implement my designs. I know it will always be done right and they stand behind their work. They provide a high level of quality and service, which typically makes for happy clients.

**★★★★★ — donnieshouse, Sept. 2014**

> LaFosse construction was the best decision I made. They made the experience of building my house a joy.  In terms of quality, trust, knowledge and their ability to communicate with the best contractors kept the project on a timely deadline.  They helped me cut my budget in one area and too increase in another to give the house that picture perfect magazine look. I would not hesitate  to use them on a another building project and I definitely recommend them to anyone that wants a high quality beautiful home.  Building a house should be fun and they proved that to be true.

**★★★★★ — Kim McLain Interiors, Sept. 2014**

> I have had the privilege of working with LaFosse construction on two custom homes. Their quality and dedication to their craft are apparent throughout the building process.  As a designer, working with LaFosse Construction  makes my job that much easier.  They are accessible throughout the building process and make sure every detail is carried out. Looking forward to our next project together!

**★★★★★ — bethbaumer, Sept. 2014**

> I have always been aware that LaFosse Construction has held a sterling reputation for utmost quality and workmanship.  However, I did not realize how enjoyable the team would be to work with!  My entire project went very smoothly and was free from the stress we often hear about when building a home.  Upon encountering any "hiccups", the professionals of LaFosse Construction worked through challenges with a sense of professionalism and ease, alleviating me from having to confront any issues on my own. We are settled into our new home and it has exceeded our every dream and expectation.   I would highly recommend this group to any of my family and/or friends!
