AVN Shoring and House Raising

Since 1988, AVN Construction has been building, elevating, and renovating homes in Southeast Louisiana. Over the last eight years, we have been devoted to rebuilding Metro New Orleans following the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina through the Louisiana Road Home program. LRH was developed using Community Block Grants issued by the Department of Housing and Urban Development.

In 2008, AVN became substantially involved in the State of Louisiana's $7,000,000,000 federally funded version of FEMA's Hazard Mitigation Program. Our crews have performed hundreds of successful elevations through HMGP, lifting homes and businesses from 4 to more than 8 feet to meet the current FEMA Map requirements. At the same time, our dedicated staff members have become experts in navigating the complex paperwork and processes necessary to help our homeowners secure the funding needed to lift their homes.

AVN is proud to have been awarded the designation of "Qualified Contractor" by the State of Louisiana. We've worked hard to maintain this status throughout the entire life of the HMGP program. Only a handful of Contractors out of over more than 400 who participate have met the stringent requirements to achieve this designation.

AVN is an "Accredited Business" with the BBB and maintains an "A" rating. We are fully licensed and insured and have a bonding capacity in excess of $6,000,000.
