Water in Cutler Bay
Cutler Bay is low, close to the bay, and in the county's storm-surge evacuation zones. Saga Bay and Lakes by the Bay flood from the canals and the bay in a strong storm; the rest of the town floods from rain that has nowhere to go. Most of the houses are the post-Andrew rebuilds, block on slab with tile floors, so water that gets in spreads under the tile before anyone sees it.
After a storm the whole neighborhood calls at once, and the contractors who cover it triage: stop the source, extract, get air movers and dehumidifiers running, and document for the insurer, house by house. Mold follows within days in this climate; the drying has to start before the adjuster arrives, and policies expect that.

What do people in Cutler Bay call about?
Storm and flood cleanup: Surge and street flooding from the bay side in every named storm; the cleanup is category 3 and the flood policy, not the homeowner's policy, pays. Sewage and drain backup cleanup: Septic drain fields under water in the rainy season backing up into the house; pumping buys days, the conversion program is the fix. Water extraction and drying: Slab houses from the 1990s rebuild with water under laminate floors; out fast, dried in place where the slab allows.
