Floodshield Flood Sock 1.5m Barrier

Flood barrier worked well diverted heavy rains from flooding my basement left in place for 3 months before disposal. I bought a replacement for any future emergencies.

In heavy rain water slowly seeps into a section of our cellar and runs across the floor. I put this down dry on the floor and when it rained it soaked up the water, expanded, and blocked it from flowing away. I don't know how this would deal with a lot of water, but for the slow seep it was great at adsorbing.

I bought this product to help with our driveway that floods when the rain is very heavy. I bought originally 2 x 10’ pieces.. with all the extreme weather we’ve been having our driveway severely floods now and sits in about 4 inches of water. Sometimes I use these flood barriers you can put them down dry into the water and they inflate really quickly with the water very similar to the absorbency of a nappy really I expect they use the same material . These don’t deflate once used, but rather than throw them away, I’ve put them in a bucket and I just keep them in our driveway and every time it rains I reuse them.. I expect they won’t be reusable forever as the material will tear in the end but for now I have used them four times as you can see from the photographs they inflate to about 80% which is excellent highly recommended.

Stops flooding water

Good flood barrier. Perfect for diverting water away from house. Repeat purchase. Thankfully I don’t need any more as the issue is rectified.

I had to go to the manufacturer's website and read the small print to learn that these are not suitable for sea water flooding.

Designed to expand when soaked, this ‘snake’ had a good bite!

Absorbs and expands exactly as described, turns into a sausage. won't keep absorbing forever but great at stopping small amounts of water ingress spreading.
