The Environment Agency issues the following advice about protecting property from floods:

Gas, electricity and water

* Put plugs into sinks and weigh them down with something heavy.

* Turn off gas, electricity and water supplies at the mains. Find out where these are well in advance of any flood.

* Unplug all electrical items and store upstairs or as high up as possible.

Reduce flood water getting into your home

* Silicone sealant - open doors and windows, smear a layer of this around the frame, then shut and lock the door/window.

* Ideally, cover doors, windows and airbricks with plywood, sandbags or metal sheeting.

* Move as much furniture and electrical items as you can upstairs. Alternatively raise them up on bricks or blocks - this may be very helpful for large appliances such as fridge/freezers.

* Move furniture away from walls, as this helps when drying your property later.

* If you can, roll up carpets and rugs and put them upstairs.

* If there is no time to remove curtains, hang them up over the rail so they are kept above flood water.

* Leave internal doors open, or ideally, remove them and store them upstairs.

Personal items

* You cannot replace sentimental items. Think about permanently moving these upstairs, so you do not forget to move them in the case of a flood.

* Keep important personal documents in a sealed bag, and in a location safe from floodwater

Outside the house

* Move anything not fixed down into a safer location, e.g. dustbins, garden chemicals car oil and similar.

* Move your car to higher ground to avoid damage.

* Weigh down manhole covers outside the house to prevent them floating away and leaving a hazardous hole
