Hull and East Yorkshire know flooding

This is a low-lying part of the country, and homes and businesses here face real flood risk from heavy rain, tidal surges and overwhelmed drains. When it happens, fast, thorough work is what stops a flood becoming months of disruption.

Our flood restoration process

Why proper drying matters

A floor that looks dry on top can still be soaked underneath. Skip the drying stage and you invite rot, warping and mould weeks later. We measure moisture properly and only sign off when the readings are right, which also protects you if you ever need to prove the work to an insurer or buyer.

Flood is not the same as "escape of water"

This catches people out at claim time. Water that comes in from outside, from the Humber, the River Hull, blocked drains or heavy rain, is dealt with as flood, which is separate cover from the escape of water that handles burst pipes inside the home. Many Hull policies include flood cover through Flood Re. If you are not sure which one your claim falls under, our water damage insurance guide explains the difference.

Staying safe in a flood

Treat flood water as contaminated. Avoid contact where you can, keep off the mains electrics in any flooded room, and wash thoroughly after any clean-up. For flood warnings and advice, Floodline is open 24 hours on 0345 988 1188. Then call us to get the water out and the property dried.

Insurance claims handled

Flood claims can be stressful. We document the damage thoroughly, provide clear reports and photographs, and can liaise with your insurer directly so the claim moves while we get on with the work.

Mould starts growing within 24 to 48 hours of a leak. The sooner drying starts, the less damage and the lower the cost.

Frequently asked questions

My property has flooded, what happens now?

We get to you fast, pump out standing water, remove what cannot be saved, then clean, sanitise and dry the structure to stop rot and mould.

Can you remove flood water and sewage?

Yes. Flood water is often contaminated, so we extract it safely, disinfect the area and dispose of contaminated materials correctly.

How do you dry a flooded room properly?

We use industrial dehumidifiers and air movers and measure moisture in walls and floors, not just the surface, so the structure is dried all the way through.

Does home insurance cover flood damage?

Flood damage from rivers, drains or heavy rain is covered under flood insurance, which is separate from the escape of water cover for burst pipes. Many Hull policies include flood cover through Flood Re.

Is flood water dangerous?

Often yes. Flood water can carry sewage and other contaminants, so avoid contact, stay off the mains electrics in flooded rooms, and let professionals extract and disinfect it.
