Okay, I was about to say. Because you need a building permit in EBR for just about everything (fence, deck, interior renovations, etc.) No way I'm getting a GC to then sub out deck installation or a bathroom renovation.

Can I legally build a structure on property that I own without holding a license?
Louisiana State Contractors’ licensing law allows an owner to build their primary residence without a license. You must live in this home. You cannot build a home to rent or sell without a license. Louisiana State Contractors’ licensing law also allows an owner to build structures adjacent to their primary residence without a license, such as a shed. Visit your local permit office to obtain permits and a homeowner exemption form. If you wish to build a home/dwelling on property you own that will not be used as your primary residence a licensed general contractor and any subcontractors on the project must be licensed.

So you can build a home but not renovate one? Don't seem correct to me..
