How we estimate Louisiana pricing
We start from a US national average of $450 per square installed and apply Louisiana's regional cost index of 0.88 (where 1.00 is the national average). These indices reflect broad differences in labor and material costs across the South, and are directional — local quotes are the source of truth.
