The Home of Local, Licensed Residential Contractors

Established in 1941, the Home Builders Association of Greater New Orleans (HBAGNO) is a professional organization dedicated to representing the residential housing industry. For over 80 years, we’ve proudly served our members and the community across the Greater New Orleans area, including the parishes of Jefferson, Orleans, St. Bernard, St. Charles, St. James, St. John the Baptist, and Plaquemines.

Together, we build more than homes—we build a stronger community and a better future for Greater New Orleans.
