Last year I purchased one of your domestic floodgates.

This afternoon we had a most unexpected high tidal surge and it quickly became clear that the water was about to pay us a very sudden visit. As I am disabled and live alone, I phoned a very good friend and in a few minutes we had the Floodgate in place.

I am pleased to tell you that not a drop got past the barrier and I am now able to relax.

I have every faith in the Floodgate.

Many thanks for your brilliant product.

There have been a few raised eyebrows this afternoon with questions such as "What! you have no sand bags?"

I just say that with Floodgate - "I don’t need sandbags!!"

The way that Floodgate works means that there are no day to day obstructions to the shop which would interfere with the business or customer entry...this has been an ideal solution for me.

Floodgates have proved to be excellent value
for money. Our insurance company reduced our
flood excess from £10,000 to £1000 after we
sent them photographs of the products in place.
