Do Business with an AHBA Member

Whether your building or buying a home, looking for a painter, or just wanting a little landscaping done, make sure the services you require are performed expertly by hiring an AHBA builder or associate member. Our members are professionals in their area of expertise and many continually educate themselves on the ever-changing aspects of their business and the homebuilding industry.

Builder Credibility
All AHBA builder members are licensed by the Louisiana State Licensing Board for Contractors and as such, have passed a test certifying that they are knowledgeable about all the elements of building a home. Furthermore, each year a builder must earn six hours of continuing education credit to maintain their license. They do so by attending classes on building issues and techniques which are offered to them by AHBA and other Louisiana home builder associations.

Professional Associates
Associate members are those who do not have a builder's license but work in an industry which supports homebuilding such as electricians, painters, real estate brokers, mortgage lenders, and others. Many of AHBA's associate members are also members of the Better Business Bureau of Acadiana, the Greater Lafayette Chamber of Commerce, the REALTOR® Association of Acadiana, or the Acadiana Mortgage Lenders Association.
