If so, they can now apply for up to £5,000 through the Property Flood Resilience Grant Scheme to help protect their property from further flooding in the future.
Owners of flood-hit properties can apply for the funding to put resistance measures in place such as flood doors, barriers and pumps. The grants can also be used for resilience measures, such as water-resistant plaster and replacing suspended timber floors with solid concrete, to reduce the impact of flooding should it occur and help them to recover more quickly.
We are administering the funding provided by DEFRA – the Government’s Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs.
