Hi All
Our garage has become flooded, the water seems to be seeping through the bricks at the back or side of the garage, the side of the garage cant be accessed because next doors garage butts up close to ours (theirs is about 2bricks higher than ours) and the back of the garage cant really be accessed as behind this wall is a build on utility room the floor of which is about a foot or so higher than the garage floor.
I have emptied the garage today and brushed out all of the water and the water is still filling up again in the garage (hasnt rained at all today),
who would the best person be to call to look at this and would this be covered in my house/contents insurance policy
thanks
Jim

Have a read through the house/contents insurance as your garage may be covered.If it is give them a ring, if it isn't contact your local council and ask them to recommend a company that would be able to help you out.0
