Floods

Flooding

Flooding can occur from many sources, such as rivers and streams, sewers, drains and major water bursts. It is fairly unlikely that you will suffer flooding inside your property, but if it happens it can be devastating. It is always best to be prepared - spending a short amount of time looking at your property to assess the risks and making a plan of action could be time well spent.

Consider an emergency kit. Keep it at a high level within the property so it is not damaged by the floodwater.

Floodwater can enter a property in many ways, eg through doors, French windows, air vents and even through ground floor toilets.
