How do you divert water away from your garage?
Redirecting water away from your garage is essential to lessen the threat of flooding. The introduction of drainage systems like French or trench drains near the garage can be a crucial support in this endeavour. Furthermore, modifying the landscape and grading to slope away from the garage is effective in naturally steering water clear of this at-risk area.
Integrating our specialised flood defence products can significantly bolster your garage's resistance to flooding. For instance, placing Flood Cubes around your garage's boundary can act as a formidable barrier, redirecting approaching water away from both your garage and property. Similarly, Osmo Flood Barriers, celebrated for their ability to soak up water, can be swiftly deployed to create a defence line against surface runoff, guiding the flow of water towards safer zones.
Leveraging these cutting-edge solutions alongside established landscaping and drainage techniques offers a comprehensive defence strategy for your garage. This approach not only shields against the direct entry of floodwater but also aids in controlling the movement of water around your entire property, extensively mitigating the risk of water damage. Embracing this holistic method of flood defence ensures that your garage, driveway, and surrounding areas remain safe, upholding the integrity and security of your home against possible flooding incidents.
Tips for Using Sandbag Alternatives
Sandbag alternatives like Floodsax offer several advantages, including ease of storage, quick deployment, and reusability. Here are some tips for using these alternatives effectively:
Preparation: Keep Floodsax or similar products in an easily accessible location for quick deployment in case of sudden flood warnings.
Activation: Follow the product instructions for activation, ensuring they're ready to absorb water and expand to their full size.
Placement: Strategically place the barriers at entry points, ensuring there are no gaps for water to seep through. Overlapping and layering can enhance effectiveness.
Post-Event: Once the floodwater recedes, dispose of any contaminated products as per the product instructions.
Garages need not be vulnerable to flooding. With the right planning and our tailored Garage Flood Protection products, you can safeguard this essential area from water damage effectively. Explore our solutions today and take a proactive step towards comprehensive flood defence for your home.
Let customers speak for us
I'm unable to review the Flood Cubes yet as the water receded just before we needed to put them to the test. However, Floodshield who supplied them were great. They were out of stock of the item we ordered but immediately contacted us and offered to supply the Flood Cubes instead and hold the price at that of the lower priced item we had ordered. They arrived the next day.
I place the barrier along the Door and it stops water going into the garage and saves a lot of mopping,
A good old fashioned service company with a series of products which provide a solution to a sometimes emergency need.
I recently ordered 2 Floodshield barriers for my UPVC and wood front doors. Anthony at Floodshield was extremely helpful and swift to respond to my various queries. The product is light, quick to deploy and simple to adjust for a perfect fit. It appears to provide a robust, watertight seal when fastened firmly to the doors. I hope I never have to use them!
These are great to have at hand when flooding is an issue. They are light , easy to store and very easy to use. I have flood doors which are getting old and during the recent floods I used them to block any leaks around them. Worked really well.
So I ordered another box to have on standby.
Arrived on time, no issues with the order. Haven’t used yet, just in case needed.
We were caught out by the recent heavy rain causing water to run into our garage. Friends of ours came to our rescue with floodsacs which worked a treat and we have now bought more incase of further problems.
We have occasional problems with drains backing up during heavy rain which can cause water to enter our home. After trying sand bags which don't always work, we purchased a Flooshield. Lightweight, easy to fit and seems to create a good seal. Hopefully our problems will now be resolved.
Haven't had to use them, but it will sadly happen, confident in your product. We compared different types of products, we were confident this product will suit our needs.
Kind regards
Worked perfectly when we had flood, and the peace of mind knowing they were there, ready to be deloyed quickly, was worth there weight in gold
