With flooding expected across the UK, it’s important to take precautions to keep your family and assets safe. To help you get prepared over this period, we’ve compiled proactive and emergency checklists to consider when preparing for potential flooding.
Some things you may want to consider in an emergency include:
While we hope that it won’t be needed, it’s wise to get to terms with your insurance details when flooding strikes. Make sure you’re aware of what you need to do and who you need to contact when it comes to making a claim, from gathering evidence to reporting, as this will be key to ensuring a swift and simple claims process. If you want any information on this, just get in touch with your usual Towergate advisor.
