Louisiana Homeowners Coverage
Home Insurance
Louisiana homeowners insurance rates have spiked dramatically post-hurricanes Ida and Laura. Carriers have left the state — but Allstate stayed. The Root Agency helps you find hurricane-ready coverage that protects your biggest investment.
What is Home Insurance?
Home insurance protects your home and personal belongings from damage or loss due to fire, theft, natural disasters, and liability claims. In Louisiana, where hurricane season runs June through November, homeowners insurance is not just recommended — it's essential. It ensures you can rebuild, repair, and recover after unexpected events, protecting your family's most valuable asset.
Coverage Options
Learn More About Your Coverage
Dwelling Coverage
Protects the physical structure of your home — walls, roof, foundation, attached garage — against covered perils like fire, wind, and hail.
Personal Property Coverage
Covers your belongings inside the home — furniture, electronics, clothing, appliances — if they're damaged or stolen.
Liability Coverage
Protects you if someone is injured on your property or if you accidentally damage someone else's property. Covers legal fees and medical bills.
Replacement Cost Coverage
Pays to rebuild your home at today's construction costs, not the depreciated value. Critical for full recovery after a total loss.
Additional Living Expenses (ALE)
Covers hotel stays, meals, and other living costs if your home becomes uninhabitable after a covered event.
Other Structures Coverage
Protects detached structures on your property — fences, sheds, detached garages, and pools.
