Livingston Parish, east of the capital
Denham Springs is not a Baton Rouge neighborhood. Spanish Town and Southdowns are on the Baton Rouge page, in East Baton Rouge Parish. This city has its own permit office. A house with a Denham Springs mailing address that sits outside the city limits uses Livingston Parish instead. We ask.
The 2016 Amite flood is why some houses were gutted and some roofs were replaced in the same years. Water in the living room does not tell us the shingles are done. We look at the roof. If the ceiling stain is from a roof leak rather than from floodwater, that is a different scope, and we say which one we can see.
