What Does Home Insurance Cover in Louisiana?
A standard policy protects your house, personal belongings, and liability-but Louisiana homeowners need more than the basics. We make sure your policy accounts for:
Dwelling Coverage
Repairs or rebuilds your home after fire, wind, or other disasters.
Personal Property
Covers furniture, clothes, and valuables-at home or away.
Liability Protection
Covers non-collision events-like theft, hail, hurricanes, or falling branches-so your car is protected against Louisiana's unpredictable weather.
Liability Protection
Pays if you're legally responsible for someone's injury or property damage.
Loss of Use
Covers extra living expenses if your home is uninhabitable after a claim.
Hurricane/Named Storm Deductibles
We'll help you understand and select the right deductible (2-5% is common here).
Flood Insurance
Not included in standard policies, but we guide you through adding flood coverage-vital in Louisiana.
Optional Endorsements
Mold, water backup, replacement cost on contents, and more.
