What types of Flood Protection are there?

Individual homes or blocks of property can be protected in one of two ways,

1. PERIMETER PROTECTION

Using existing or new landscaped low brick walls and embankments etc. to protect gardens, garages, driveways as well as your premises.

NB. These defences are permanently in place protecting your property against floodwater. They are resistant to floating debris damage and require no set up time following Flood Warnings. Once built you are always protected.

2.STRUCTURE PROTECTION

Protect the actual structure by using flood boards or similar etc. on the doors and airbricks. NB. These have to be put in place whenever you have a flood warning. The property is unprotected if these are not fitted in time!
