Metal Siding for Chalmette’s Rebuilt Neighborhoods
Chalmette sits downriver in St. Bernard Parish, a community that rebuilt much of its housing after Katrina. That means a lot of newer construction alongside restored homes in Arabi and Old Arabi, and a shared awareness of building above the flood line. Metal siding fits that mindset. It carries no risk of rot when water gets high, resists fire, and holds firm against the tropical-storm wind that tracks up the river, so it protects the work homeowners have already put into their walls.
Detailing matters here more than most places. We install panels with clean transitions above elevated foundations, keeping the finished look tidy from the street through the Chalmette Battlefield area and beyond. Coated steel and aluminum won’t feed termites and shrug off the humidity that lingers this close to the river, so upkeep stays minimal. The finish leans modern, though it can echo a traditional lap profile if that suits the block. Its one weakness is denting under a hard hit, which we plan around near drives and gates.
