Show Notes
Homeowners in southeast Louisiana grapple with skyrocketing construction costs and insurance bills, seeking solutions at the New Orleans Home and Garden Show. Vendors report a focus on reducing property insurance through programs like Louisianas Fortified Roof. Experts like Ashley Van Der Meulen from Compass Inspection Services outline options such as wind inspections, mitigation upgrades, and grants or tax breaks. A new bill from Senator Kirk Talbot aims to mandate Fortified standards for new roofs and replacements, but builders argue current codes are sufficient. Keep an eye on grant applications reopening this summer for potential savings.
