“She thought she was in good hands.”

After a devastating loss, many policyholders assume the first estimate includes everything that should be considered.

On a recent contents claim, the carrier’s estimate showed:

RCV: $66,118.98
ACV: $47,658.56

After PSA reviewed the contents, documentation, and estimate:

RCV: $178,605.64
ACV: $139,109.61

That is more than a $112,000 difference in replacement cost value.

This is why documentation matters.
This is why estimating matters.
This is why reviewing the details matters.

After a fire, storm, water loss, or total loss, do not assume the first estimate is complete just because it came from the carrier.

Happy Fourth of July from Public Service Adjusting!✨

Today, we celebrate freedom, community, and the people who make this country feel like home.

As families gather for cookouts, fireworks, parades, and time together, we hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable Independence Day. ❤️🤍💙

A quick holiday reminder: fireworks, grills, storms, and crowded gatherings can all lead to unexpected property damage. Take photos, save receipts, and document any damage as soon as it is safe to do so.

Before the next storm rolls in, take a few minutes to document what your property looks like today. ⛈️📸

The best storm photos are the ones you take before the storm.

Updated pre-loss photos can help show the condition of your home, belongings, and exterior areas before damage occurs.

Photograph:
✅ Roof
✅ Exterior elevations
✅ Rooms
✅ Contents
✅ Garage
✅ Detached structures
✅ Valuable items

You do not need anything fancy — your phone camera is enough. Walk around the property, take clear photos, and save them somewhere you can access later.

A few minutes now can make a big difference if you ever need to file an insurance claim.

Okay, we need to say this loud for the people in the back… 📣🔥

THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

To our past clients, firefighters, police officers, contractors, community members, friends, and families who continue sending people our way — we see you, and we appreciate you more than you know. 🖤💛

Every referral means something to us.

It means you trusted PSA during one of the most stressful moments of your life.
It means you remembered who showed up when things were overwhelming.
It means you believed someone else deserved guidance, organization, communication, and help understanding the insurance claim process too.

And that is not something we take lightly.

Property losses are hard. Fires, storms, water damage, tornado damage, contents claims, ALE, estimates, receipts, inspections, paperwork — it can feel like too much, too fast.

So when you tell someone, “Call PSA,” that means the world to us.

To every firefighter who has mentioned our name after seeing a family lose everything…
To every police officer who has connected us with someone after a loss…
To every contractor who knows the claim process can be confusing…
To every past client who sends their neighbor, friend, coworker, or family member our way…

THANK YOU. 🙌

Your referrals are the reason we continue growing, serving, educating, and assisting more policyholders through some of the hardest days of their lives.

Over the past several days, our team has been on the ground in some of the neighborhoods hardest hit by the recent tornadoes, helping families begin what is often a long and overwhelming recovery process.

One moment that really stood out was seeing nearly 100 Merrillville High School students volunteering to help homeowners clean up their properties. It was a powerful reminder that recovery isn’t accomplished by one person or one organization, it’s a community effort.

At Public Service Adjusting, we’re honored every time a homeowner places their trust in us. From the first inspection to documenting every loss, navigating the insurance claim, negotiating for a fair settlement, and seeing families return to their rebuilt homes, we’re committed to standing beside our clients every step of the way.

To the homeowners who have welcomed us into your homes during such a difficult time, thank you for your trust. It is a responsibility we never take for granted.

And to every volunteer, first responder, contractor, utility worker, and neighbor lending a hand: thank you for showing what community truly looks like.

When storms hit, homeowners are often left making major decisions during one of the most stressful times of their lives. 🏠⛈️

After a tornado, severe storm, fire, or other disaster, companies may begin arriving from all over. Some are experienced professionals. Others may be unfamiliar to the area, the community, or the long-term recovery process.

That is why local matters.

Public Service Adjusting is licensed in multiple states, but Northwest Indiana is home. Our home office has been rooted in Porter County since the day we opened our doors, and our reputation has been built one family, one business, and one claim at a time.

Before choosing who to trust with your insurance claim, ask questions:
✅ Verify credentials
✅ Check references
✅ Talk to local homeowners and professionals
✅ Make sure the people helping you today will still be here tomorrow

We were here before the storm.
We are here during the recovery.
We will be here long after the recovery is complete.

Mitigation and repairs are both important after a property loss — but they are not the same thing. 🏠

Mitigation usually comes first. This can include emergency board-up, tarping, water extraction, drying, and other temporary measures to help protect the property from additional damage. 💧🛠️

Repairs come later and involve the permanent work needed to restore the damaged areas, such as replacing materials, rebuilding, and installing finishes. 🔨

Understanding the difference matters during the insurance claim process because each part may be reviewed, documented, and billed differently. 📋

Public Service Adjusting assists insureds with the claim process. PSA does not perform mitigation or construction, but we can help connect you with trusted resources when those services are needed. 🤝

🚫 Stop using the “F” word when talking to insurance.

We’re talking about FLOOD.

If a pipe bursts in your home, your water heater leaks, or your toilet overflows and causes water damage, that does not automatically mean you had a “flood.”

In insurance, the word flood usually refers to rising water from outside the home, and most homeowners in our area do not carry flood insurance. Using the wrong wording when reporting a claim can create confusion and may impact how the claim is handled.

If you have water in your home, document the damage, take photos, protect your property from further damage, and be careful how you describe what happened.

Not sure what to say when calling your insurance company? Reach out to us. We’re happy to help guide you through the next steps.
