There are different actions that can be taken by residents, businesses and communities to improve resilience and better prepare for, protect against, respond to, and recover from flooding. Please visit our Prepare, Protect and Recover pages for more information.
One action that can increase the resilience of properties to flood events, is installing temporary or permanent Property Flood Resilience measures. While the risk from flooding can never be stopped completely, these measures can help to resist a certain level of flooding and make recovery from internal property flooding easier. These measures were previously called Property Level Protection.
Please visit our Prepare page to find out more about Property Flood Resilience.
You can learn more about Property Flood Resilience and see some examples of Property Flood Resilience measures that can help make properties more resilient on the BeFloodReady website.
