Flood Prevention Measures to Safeguard Your Property

Maintain Drain Cleanliness

Regular maintenance of your building’s drains is essential to prevent blockages. Over time, debris, mud, and leaves can accumulate, causing water to back up and leading to blockages. Using high-pressure water jetting can efficiently dislodge and break down the accumulated material, ensuring smooth drainage.

Know Your Drainage Layout

Understanding the configuration of your drainage system is crucial for effective flood management. This includes knowing where fresh water enters and waste water exits your property. Familiarity with your pipework allows you to quickly identify problem areas in case of flooding, minimising risks like chemical spills or fire hazards.

Know Your Drainage Layout

Surface water from roads and car parks usually drains through gullies connected to your property’s underground drainage system. If these gullies are not properly maintained, the build-up of sediment, oil, and grease can impede drainage, particularly during heavy rainfall, resulting in surface water flooding.

Regularly Clean External Gullies

Surface water from roads and car parks usually drains through gullies connected to your property’s underground drainage system. If these gullies are not properly maintained, the build-up of sediment, oil, and grease can impede drainage, particularly during heavy rainfall, resulting in surface water flooding.

Utilise Interceptors

For areas like car parks, loading bays, and vehicle maintenance zones where oil or fuel can contaminate water run-off, interceptors are invaluable. These devices are installed before the main sewer pipe to capture and separate contaminants from the water, thereby preventing pollution.
