We hired Mario and his team to paint the exterior of our Garden District double shotgun home, and to do repairs as needed to restore its condition. We selected One New Creation because we were convinced they would do things right. And they did. The quality of workmanship on all the carpentry and painting was truly outstanding and we received many comments from neighbors and friends on what a good job they were doing. Not unexpectedly, with a 175+ year-old house, the scope grew considerably. Mario was always straightforward and communicative about the additional charges and willing to discuss and explain our options at each decision point. We ended up not only replacing a significant amount of wood siding and trim (which was expected), but also replacing some structural framing, totally replacing the front porch, getting custom french doors milled to match existing ones, doing some roofing repair and upgrades, rewiring exterior lights and outlets, (which also led to some interior repair and painting), and replacing all the gutters and downspouts. In short, this grew to be a huge project that spanned several months. The painting job was a fixed price and while more expensive than other painters, was worth it. Everything was properly scraped, sanded, caulked, primed, and painted to give a result that will hold up to New Orleans conditions. The renovation and other work was done on a time & materials basis and Mario did a great job giving progress reports and estimates for the added work. All of One New Creation’s subcontractors were excellent and Mario took responsibility for their work and communicated with us clearly and proactively on scheduling and delays. In short, this is a top-notch renovation contractor and we would use them again with no hesitation and recommend them strongly.

I secured 3 bids for renovations to both my primary and guest bathrooms, one of which was from One New Creation. The One New Creation bid was the lowest of the three I secured and I was admittedly nervous about how the renovations would turn out. I had just purchased my home in the Garden District and wanted both renovations to be high end and improve the value of my new home. I could not be happier with how both bathrooms turned out. Mario Saavedra provided my initial estimates and both were 100% accurate with my billing. Any additional charges I incurred were the result of my own additions and edits. Construction started and completed on time with no delays. The men assigned to work on my project were here daily with few interruptions. They worked tirelessly and their craftsmanship was perfection. Both bathroom renovations exceeded my expectations. Mario made recommendations where appropriate (tiling, light fixtures, paint options, etc.) and helped me to avoid unnecessary expenses. I never felt like I was being taken advantage of and his approach to his work was guided with honesty and setting realistic expectations about what his firm could/could not do. My overall sense is that these two bathroom renovations increased my home value by $100,000 or more - and I am thrilled to enjoy them for as long as I live in my home. I was so pleased with One New Creation/Mario that I moved forward with having my exterior home painted after seeing another painting project performed by One New Creation in the Garden District.

The guys at One New Creation did an excellent job fixing wood rot damage around the frame of our exterior door. They were able to take the door out, rebuild the frame, repair the damaged floor and sub-floor and re-install the door in a day and painted/finished everything the next day. Every step was clearly explained before work started and the lead contractor contacted us a couple of times to ensure that we were satisfied with the work. A very professional and competent organization overall. I would recommend them for anyone who needs work done on their home.

My new favorite Contractor! One New Creation LLC removed and replaced the rotting wood from my house and increased its structural integrity by adding supports that weren’t originally there. Mario and team gave me the confidence they would get the job done right without taking shortcuts. If you’re looking for high quality work at a fair price One New Creation LLC is where to go.

Mario and his team are absolutely top notch! I'd absolutely recommend them for any of your remodeling needs. They did a full kitchen and a full master bath remodel and I am thrilled with both. They ran into issues with both and kept me up to date the entire way and fixed the issues with ease. When you start remodeling older homes, issues can arise and that was the case with my jobs. The communication was also top notch the entire way through the process. Mario made sure we were happy with the final product before sending the final bill for the job. If you need a remodel or any type of work done on your home, look no further than One New Creation. You won't be disappointed!
