How do you divert water away from your driveway?

Flooding often starts at ground level—and driveways are one of the easiest entry points for water. The key to protecting them lies in both smart drainage design and well-placed, rapid-response defences.

Start with smart landscaping and drainage

Good water management begins long before the rain starts. Here are a few structural strategies that make a big difference:

  • Install French or trench drains to redirect water away from your home and into safe drainage channels
  • Shape your driveway with a gentle gradient, guiding surface water toward the road or dedicated drain points
  • Use permeable paving or gravel where possible to reduce pooling and allow water to soak away naturally

These passive drainage improvements lay the foundation for a flood-resilient property.

Add fast-acting flood protection for extra peace of mind

Drainage alone isn’t always enough—especially during heavy storms or flash floods. That’s where our driveway flood products come in.

  • Flood Cubes and FloodSax can be stacked or laid along the edge of your drive to form a quick, low-profile barrier
  • These products absorb and redirect water away from your property—perfect for driveways, paths, or vulnerable side access
  • Osmo Flood Barriers offer flexible, reusable protection you can deploy at a moment’s notice—great for large driveways or shared access routes

Positioned correctly, these barriers help channel water away from garages, front doors, and low-lying areas, reducing the risk of internal flooding.

A complete defence that works together

Combining landscaping, drainage and flood products gives you layered protection, blocking water at multiple points and improving overall flow around your home.

It’s not just about defending the driveway, it’s about safeguarding your entire property from preventable water damage. With the right setup, you can keep your garage dry, protect your foundations, and maintain safe access, whatever the forecast throws your way.

Tips for Using Sandbag Alternatives

Alternatives to traditional sandbags, such as Floodsax, present multiple benefits, such as convenient storage, rapid deployment, and the ability to be reused. Here are some tips for using these alternatives effectively:

  • Preparation: Store Floodsax or comparable items in a readily accessible spot to ensure they can be deployed swiftly in response to unexpected flood alerts.
  • Activation: Adhere to the instructions provided with the product to activate it properly, making sure it's prepared to soak up water and swell to its maximum capacity.
  • Placement: Position the barriers strategically at entryways to eliminate any spaces that could allow water infiltration. Using an overlapping and layered approach can significantly boost their efficiency.
  • Post-Event: After the floodwaters have subsided, follow the product guidelines to properly dispose of any items that have become contaminated.
