Flooding is always alarming and can be sudden, even life threatening. 

The sense of loss for flood victims is overwhelming and for some the emotional stress is so intense it can affect them for years. 

In many cases flooding is avoidable and comes down to improving public awareness of flood risk, thereby giving greater protection to people, their communities and businesses. 

Whether you have been flooded in the past or are worried about the risk of flooding in the future, UK Flood Barriers can offer a bespoke solution for your property and are able to offer you the peace of mind that the products we recommend are tried and tested.

UK Flood Barriers takes a holistic approach, taking into account all the potentially vulnerable areas of a property not just door apertures.  Water can find its way into a property through airbricks, sewage pipes, weep holes and poor quality brickwork.

The average terraced property would cost approximately £1,000 to protect against flooding. The average insurance claim following a flood can be up to £50,000, taking into account property restoration, contents replacement and displacement of the resident. The cost/benefit analysis is obvious, particularly once the property owner has been presented with the right information and right products to protect their biggest asset.

The cost of protecting a semi detached property would be in the region of £2,500.

A detached property would cost approximately £4,500 to protect, as most have garages which are connected to the house. Offset this against an insurance claim in excess of £120,000 and ask yourself the question... “Would you do it given the right information?”
