Identifies hidden flood risks – Groundwater flooding is not always visible on standard flood maps. A survey can reveal whether water is likely to rise beneath a property — particularly important for basements, cellars, or properties on low-lying land.
Assesses site conditions – The survey evaluates soil type, geology, drainage capacity, and existing water levels, helping to determine how susceptible a property is to groundwater flooding.
Informs flood resilience measures – If a risk is identified, the survey can guide decisions on protective measures such as sump pumps, waterproofing, or raising internal floors
