Useful information
Check your insurance before anything else
It may be worthwhile contacting your buildings insurer in the event of flooding or an escape of water, as the cost of repairs may be covered by your insurance policy. Our engineers can provide written reports to support any insurance claim.
Insurance tip: Contact your buildings insurer as soon as flooding occurs. Many policies cover flood damage and water ingress repairs — our team can provide documentation to support your claim.

Common causes
What causes flooding in London properties?
London's ageing drainage infrastructure and high density of buildings make flooding a common and serious risk. Our engineers have seen every cause.
Surface water & heavy rainfall
Overwhelmed drainage systems during heavy rain allow surface water to back up into basements, light wells and ground-floor properties.
Failed sewage pumps
A failed sewage pump station can cause rapid flooding of underground areas. Regular maintenance prevents most pump failures before they occur.
Blocked drains & gullies
Blocked surface drainage channels and gullies prevent water from dispersing, forcing it into buildings through any available opening.
Cracked or collapsed pipes
Damaged underground pipework can allow groundwater or sewage to escape, causing ingress into basements and foundations over time.
Basement & car park flooding
Underground spaces are particularly vulnerable. Without adequate waterproofing and drainage maintenance, water accumulates rapidly.
Escape of water
Burst pipes and failed plumbing can cause significant internal flooding. Fast response limits damage to structure, fixtures and contents.
