🏢 As part of , it's a good time for businesses to review their flood insurance cover and make sure they're prepared for future flooding.

Obtaining insurance for businesses can be more difficult than for homes, as businesses are not eligible for the Flood Re scheme.

It's important to ensure your business is not underinsured, particularly when it comes to expensive equipment, machinery and stock. 💧💻

🔧 Installed Property Flood Resilience (PFR) products? Don't forget to maintain them.

Property Flood Resilience measures can play a vital role in reducing flood damage and helping properties recover more quickly after a flood. However, they are only effective if they're kept in good working order.

Many products, such as flood doors, air brick covers, non-return valves and pumps, require regular inspection, testing and maintenance to ensure they perform as intended when they're needed.
