HomeProtect were also able to interview Mary Dhonau themselves and she stressed how important it is to prepare in advance. “Homeowners and businesses can put in protection measures that will help to minimise the damage and speed up the repair time. This is known as 'Flood Resistance' - this means protecting a property, using flood protection products or building materials to try to prevent floodwater from entering a property damaging its fabric and contents. (Or in the worst case scenario they will give homeowners time to move their possessions to a safe place). These measures will involve some expense but will pay for themselves in the long term and will be time and money well spent to, hopefully, reduce the distress flooding causes.”
