Yes they do. Hundreds of thousands of pounds are spent at planning stage to provide reports on flooding amongst other subjects to the local authorities.bery_451 said:
That's great, new builds come with a open communal swimming pool and instead of using a car to get around best to use a rowing boat!Doozergirl said:bery_451 said:Okay with all the flood news coming on TV, shall we assume all new homes are not built in a flood risk area?
Designed for living, not 'modern living'.
I don't understand, don't these new build companies/corporations carry out a 'risk assessment' before building real estate properties that are worth £millions together. Or these companies just take the risk of finishing building, selling them all to unsuspected buyers before a flood strikes?
Okay so why theres pics of new builds in floods online?0
