Flood Risk Assessments
Flood-risk assessments have increasingly become a planning requirement for development sites. We can provide flood-risk assessments tailored to individual sites that are prepared in accordance with PPS 25 Development and Flood Risk. Our flood-risk assessments take account of the guidelines within CIRIA report C624 Development and Flood Risk Guidance for the Construction Industry and can include the following details:

• Detailed survey to Ordnance Survey level datum
• Location of site and position relative to the Environment Agency flood plans
• Identification of flood hazards
• Determine if the development is at risk of flooding or possibly of increasing flood risk elsewhere
• Evaluation of existing surface water run-off from the site
• Review any available flood data from the Environment Agency and other sources and consider climate change
• Consider methods of surface-water disposal from the site to ensure no increased run-off
• Suggest proposed floor levels for development
• Consider further work required to satisfy requirements of PPS 25
• Consider and suggest flood mitigation measures
