We can carry out a flood risk assessment (FRA) to assess the risk of flooding from all flooding mechanisms, identify flood mitigation measures and provide advice on actions to be taken before and during a flood.
The sources of water which produce floods include:
- Groundwater (saturated groundwater)
- Vadose (water flowing the ground in an unsaturated state)
- Surface water
- Artificial water (burst water mains, canals or reservoirs)
- Rivers, streams or watercourses
- Sewers and drains
- Flooding of low-lying coastal regions due to sea level rise
