For flood risk in England usehttps://flood-map-for-planning.service.gov.uk/
If not in England, put your location in anyway and it will give you links for the Welsh, Scottish and Northern Irish websites.0 -
Hi, there is no similar site to check for subsidence risk but as a structural engineer we will in the first instance check the british geological survey website. This shows the geology of the whole country and we check for Clay's or soil with a clay content. This is the main cause of subsidence (and heave) in houses and is greatly increased by mature trees existing close to the house walls.0
