These reports provide an accurate and comprehensive flood risk assessment for commercial properties which help to avoid potential costs and any inconvenience in the event of flooding.
It is reported that as many as 3,000 commercial properties flooded in England and Wales during the winter of 2016/2017, which means that getting a Flood Search report is an increasingly important concern. The CML (Council of Mortgage Lenders) comment: “It is a standard condition of all mortgages for the property to be covered by standard buildings insurance, including flood cover, for the full term of the contract to protect the borrower and the lender. If insurance is not available, then it is unlikely that the property will be mortgageable.” Commercial Flood reports from Searches UK provide clear and concise information about a number of flood risks, including surface water (pluvial), ground water and other more.
