Murphy & Sons, Inc. is a Louisiana-licensed commercial general contractor bringing nearly five decades of Mid-South construction experience to owners across the state.

Experience Built for Louisiana's Industries
Louisiana's economy runs on energy, petrochemicals, shipping, agriculture, healthcare, and education.

Building in Louisiana: Local Considerations
Louisiana presents unique site and climate challenges that require careful planning:
Wind and hurricane design
Much of South Louisiana falls in high-wind design zones. Our experience building FEMA shelters gives us a strong understanding of wind-resistant structures, roofing, and envelope details.
Flood elevation and drainage
Low-lying sites and heavy rainfall make floodplain requirements, base flood elevations, and stormwater management critical. We address them during site analysis and preconstruction.
Soft soils and high water tables
Many Louisiana sites require special foundation solutions. Our in-house concrete team works with geotechnical engineers to design foundations that perform.
Parish permitting
Louisiana permitting is managed by parishes and municipalities, each with its own process. We coordinate early to protect your schedule.
Licensing
Murphy & Sons is licensed through the Louisiana State Licensing Board for Contractors.
Delivering Louisiana Projects With Confidence
Distance should never mean less attention. On every Louisiana project, we assign a dedicated project manager and a full-time superintendent who stay with your job from start to finish. We build relationships with qualified Louisiana subcontractors and suppliers, plan deliveries around weather and hurricane season, and keep you informed with regular reports and site meetings. North Louisiana projects in Monroe, Ruston, and Shreveport are a straightforward drive from our Mississippi base, and our process scales to projects throughout the state.
