Do the records help with the insurance adjuster in Fields Landing?
The crew keeps photos, moisture logs and a list of removed materials that an adjuster can read. The homeowner reports the loss to the insurer, and the insurer decides coverage.
Is rainwater in a Fields Landing basement dangerous?
Treat it as unsafe. Storm water picks up soil and bacteria on its way in, and basement water can hide live wiring. The crew handles it as Category 3 and removes the porous materials it soaked.

Do I need a plumber first for a flooded basement in Fields Landing?
Only when a pipe, hose or water heater is the source. Shut off its valve and call the plumber and the crew together. A flood from rain or groundwater needs the pump-out, not a plumber.
