As Perrier Esquerré Contractors marks more than a decade in business, PEC has established its headquarters in Jefferson Parish. The company said the move reflects its continued expansion and its long-standing work in the parish. Founders Brett Perrier and Keith Esquerré said they view Jefferson Parish as the company’s next chapter and a strategic investment in its future.
A major highlight of the project was the complete transformation of the building’s storefront and façade, which lacked character in its original condition.
“The most memorable moment came when the original front wall was removed, revealing the full potential of the transformation,” said Erin Bordelon, project manager. “In that instant, the vision for the new headquarters became tangible.”
Through close collaboration with Flynn Architects, Atelier Design and other partners, PEC reimagined the exterior to create a modern, welcoming headquarters that the company said strengthens its identity and reflects its culture, values and commitment to excellence. The project required complex problem-solving, including the relocation of the building’s electrical service. Working in partnership with Entergy, PEC successfully rerouted power underground and relocated the service entrance, preserving the architectural vision while improving overall functionality.
The approximately $1.41 million project began in March 2025 and involved the renovation of the existing building into the company’s new headquarters.
Although PEC served as both owner and contractor, Perrier Esquerré Contractors said it followed the same construction standards it applies to client projects. Company leadership remained actively involved throughout construction, which PEC said allowed for continuous oversight and timely decision-making.
PEC said the project demonstrates how thoughtful renovation, strategic problem-solving and collaboration can transform an aging structure into a high-performing workplace. The company said the project reflects its core values of safety, innovation and accountability, delivered with the same standards it applies to every client project.
When asked to summarize the project in one sentence, PEC described it simply: “We transformed an outdated building into a headquarters that reflects who we are as builders and creates a foundation for our team to grow for years to come.”
