Metairie
Local homeowners insurance, built for Jefferson Parish.
Your agency is in Metairie
Our office sits on Metairie Road in Jefferson Parish — this is our home market. That means quotes from an advisor who knows East Jefferson neighborhoods, the local building stock, and which carriers are actually writing here, rather than a call center reading from a national script.
Hurricane wind is the main exposure
Like the rest of the metro, Metairie homeowners losses are driven by tropical wind and hail. Louisiana policies apply a separate, percentage-based hurricane deductible, so we walk through your real out-of-pocket exposure before you bind — not after a storm.
A tightening coastal market
Carrier appetite for Jefferson Parish coastal wind has narrowed in recent years. As an independent agency we shop multiple carriers and can access Louisiana Citizens, the state residual insurer, when the standard market declines a Metairie home.

FORTIFIED roof
A stronger roof, a smaller premium.
Louisiana homeowners can fund a wind-resistant roof and earn an insurance discount the state now requires carriers to give. We factor FORTIFIED into the quotes we shop for you.
Up to $10,000
A grant to strengthen your roof
The Louisiana Fortify Homes Program awards up to $10,000 toward retrofitting an existing roof to the IBHS FORTIFIED Roof standard — a sealed roof deck, ring-shank nails, and reinforced edges engineered to stay on in hurricane-force wind. Funds are released once IBHS issues the FORTIFIED certificate.
A required discount
Insurers must credit a FORTIFIED roof
Louisiana law requires insurers to discount the wind and hurricane portion of your premium for a FORTIFIED-designated home, phased in fully by January 1, 2027. The IBHS certificate is the documentation carriers use to apply that credit.
A credit on your premium
What the discount is worth
How much you save depends on your carrier, your home, and the wind-and-hail portion of your premium, so we do not quote a fixed figure here. The Louisiana Department of Insurance publishes the current FORTIFIED discount rules, and we factor the credit into every quote we shop for a designated home.
