Make your home
more flood resilient
Protect your property
from flood damage.
Flooding can seriously damage homes, but you can protect your property and reduce losses. Flood resistance measures block water entry or lessen its impact. Here’s how to get started with Property Flood Resilience installation.
1. Assess Your Flood Risk
Check flood maps and data for your area to know if your home is at risk from river, surface, or coastal flooding.
England: Gov.uk – Flood map for planning
Scotland: SEPA – Flood Maps
Wales: Natural Resources Wales – Check your flood risk on a map
Northern Ireland: Infrastructure NI – Flood Maps NI
2. Get a Survey
Hire a certified surveyor to assess vulnerabilities and recommend measures like flood-resistant doors, sump pumps, or non-return valves.
Plan for Resistance and Resilience:
- Resistance: Install barriers on doors/windows, seal walls, and use raised air bricks.
- Resilience: Use water-resistant materials, raise sockets, and add water-resistant insulation.
3. Hire a Certified Installer
Hiring a certified PFR installer ensures your home is better prepared for flooding. By focusing on certification, local expertise, high-quality products, and reliable support, you can increase your property’s resilience and protect your home against future flood damage.
4. Regular Maintenance
Inspect flood resilience measures regularly, especially before storm season, to keep them functional.
The Resilico Connect app will help to keep you on track of your maintenance.
