St. Bernard Parish runs southeast of New Orleans along the Mississippi, hemmed by Lake Borgne and the marsh delta, with most homes lined up on the natural levee from Arabi through Chalmette, Meraux and Violet to Poydras. This is hurricane and storm-surge country — Katrina put much of the parish under water in 2005, and many rebuilt houses now sit raised on piers with tall front stairs. Salt air off the lake corrodes hardware fast, so every lift we set here uses marine-grade, weather-rated rails.
We treat the whole parish as one service area, with no travel fees from the levee road to the back of Poydras. We work with seniors aging in place and with the parish's many veterans, and we are honest about flood-recovery realities: raised homes, tight elevated entries and outdoor runs all factor into the assessment.
