A good first step when shopping for a home warranty is deciding what kind of coverage you need. Much of this will depend on your individual circumstances, but living in Louisiana can present some common issues worth addressing.
Louisiana’s hot, humid summers can make a working air conditioner a necessity, so it’s worth making sure your home warranty adequately covers your cooling system. Replacing an air conditioner can cost thousands of dollars, and you don’t want to be stuck without it on a 105-degree day while you wait to save up for a replacement.

Once you know what coverage you’re looking for, you can find companies with plans that meet your criteria. Then you can read reviews, ideally from other Louisiana residents, and get quotes from multiple companies to comparison-shop before deciding which home warranty is right for you.

Based on quotes from our top picks, a home warranty in Louisiana usually has a monthly cost between $35 and $100, not including any service fees. However, most monthly fees we saw are closer to $50 or $60 per month.

However, if nothing in your home breaks down, the money you spent on a home warranty would be for nothing. Analyze your personal risk level and purchase accordingly.
The main difference between a home warranty and homeowners insurance comes down to the events they cover:
While they may cover some of the same items, they’re meant to be used in different situations.
