Remember the damage the rain and floods caused last year?

Well this year don't get caught out, be prepared and protect your business and home in advance with Flood prevention barriers from Uisce Technology.

We provide an award winning, British Standard Approved flood guard system that can make your property safe within 30 seconds.

A flood warning can come less than an hour from a deluge – and it takes just one flood to wipe out a lifetime of memories. A single flood can make a home, office or shop uninhabitable for weeks and can make insurance premiums rocket.

It takes about 30 seconds to clip on a Floodguard and about five minutes to protect an average house with three entrances and half a dozen air vents.

The speed of Floodguard protection is a direct result of both its unique, globally-patented design and the fact that all installations are bespoke. We assess your property to find out exactly what flood protection you need.

Our professional installers will take a day or two to fit the system in a standard property, depending on your exact circumstances. All you’ll see when we leave are unobtrusive frames sealed to your building around entrances and airbricks. As well as standard grey, brown, brick red and white, we can custom make them in virtually any colour you want.

Once you have clipped on a Floodguard, the more the water rises, the tighter the seal becomes – one of the reasons why we were one of the first companies in the world to be granted the British Standards Institute Kitemark of conformance 1188-1. In essence, a Floodguard works like a dam under pressure and continues working, regardless of whether the water is still, flowing or creating waves.

Floodguards are tested with water approximately a metre deep – holding back a tonne of pressure – and are designed to cope with twice that. Higher Floodguards can be commissioned, subject to an assessment. Once the danger is past, simply unclip the Floodguards, wash them down and put them in a Floodguards storage shed.
