Do you write commercial insurance in Gonzales?

Yes. We write business owner's policies, general liability, commercial property and commercial auto, which matters in a parish where a lot of local firms serve the industrial corridor along the river. If you run personal vehicles for business purposes, that is worth raising specifically, because a personal auto policy generally will not cover it without an endorsement.

What Gonzales residents actually face

Local risk and what it means for your rate

Ascension Parish combines residential growth with a heavy industrial corridor along the river, which means an unusual mix of household policies and commercial exposure in the same market. Flooding in 2016 reached well beyond the mapped high-risk zones here.

Industrial corridor and commercial exposure

The stretch of Ascension Parish along the Mississippi carries one of the densest concentrations of industrial plants in the state, and a lot of local businesses serve it. Contractors, haulers and service firms working that corridor frequently run personal vehicles for business purposes, which a personal auto policy does not cover without the correct endorsement.

Flooding outside the mapped zones

The 2016 floods put water into Ascension Parish properties that sat outside the high-risk FEMA zones. Nationally around one in five NFIP claims comes from outside those zones, and Gonzales is a reminder that a flood map describes probability rather than immunity.
