What counties are high risk?
Floods can happen to anyone due to various circumstances, such as clogged drains or saturated grounds. However, statistics show that around 1 in 6 homes in England are at high risk of experiencing floods, mainly located in areas near bodies of water.
To determine if your property falls under the high-risk category, visit the GOV.UK website and enter your postcode for more information. Homes in this category may face higher insurance premiums for flood or water damage coverage, but you may also qualify for a support programme designed for homeowners in similar situations.
The three types of high-risk flood areas include coastal, river, and surface water flooding. The UK areas most susceptible to flooding are:
River flooding
- Yorkshire
- Essex
- Somerset
- Kent
- Cambridgeshire
- Sussex
- Lincolnshire
- Norfolk
- Stirling
- Scottish Borders
Coastal flooding
- Cornwall
- Kent and Sussex coastal areas
- East Coast areas
- Orkney Islands
- West Dunbartonshire
Surface water flooding
- Cumbria
- Merseyside
- Yorkshire
- Lincolnshire
- Wiltshire
- Buckinghamshire
- Falkirk
How to assess your property risk
If you own a property in an area with a high risk of flooding, it's essential to have it surveyed and assessed by a building inspector or an independent contractor. A professional will give you invaluable advice on-site, identify vulnerable areas, and install flood prevention measures to protect your property.
During the survey, the inspector will identify areas where water could leak through, including doors, windows, air bricks, plumbing, basement, and garages. They will also consider neighbouring properties, previous floods, and local drainage systems to give you the best recommendations.
Once the survey is complete, you will receive a report detailing the flood risk assessment, including the depth, duration, type, and frequency of potential flooding. The report will also provide an overview of vulnerable areas in your home and suggest solutions that can protect them.

How is the flood risk being lowered?
Although flooding is impossible to prevent altogether, there are ways to minimize the risk to communities and ensure people's safety during floods. The UK is taking steps to address climate change and reduce the chances of flooding by setting out several goals, including:
- Upgrading and extending national flood defences and infrastructure
- Efficiently managing water flow
- Using green or natural energy to reduce flooding and coastal erosion
- Providing more funding for flood support in local communities
- Building communities with more resilient structures and materials
Protecting local wildlife and natural habitats can also help mitigate flood risks. Therefore, it is crucial to safeguard natural habitats. We can use nature to protect us from flooding by:
- Increasing the number of trees and expanding woodlands
- Building more ponds and wetlands to hold water
- Restoring or expanding boglands
- Creating and restoring natural habitats.
