Overview

Welcome to the Ruislip Property Flood Resilience (PFR) project page. If you are looking for information on the broader catchment area or other Pinn projects, please visit our ‘start here’ page.

This update focuses on the latest developments in the Ruislip PFR project. For previous updates, please refer to the archive on the right-hand side of this page. If your questions aren’t answered here or in our FAQs, you can email the team at RuislipPWPM@environment-agency.gov.uk and we will provide a response as soon as possible.


Property Flood Resilience

PFR includes any measures to reduce the risks to people and property, enabling households and businesses to reduce damage, speed up recovery, reoccupy flooded buildings. This can sometimes allow property owners to obtain insurance cover more easily and affordably.

The Ruislip PFR project, led by the Environment Agency with support from the London Borough of Hillingdon, is enhancing the flood resilience of individual properties. This involves installing products such as self-closing bricks, flood-resilient doors, and non-return valves, all intended to prevent water ingress and give residents more time to prepare in the event of a flood.

Further guidance on PFR, including information on products and our FAQs, are provided to the right of this webpage.

How were properties selected for PFR?

PFR surveys were offered to properties that are at either ‘Very Significant’ or ‘Significant’ risk of flooding from rivers according to Environment Agency modelling. We also offered PFR surveys to those which are not in these risk bands but reported internal flooding to the London Borough of Hillingdon following the flooding in June 2016.

Engagement

In May and July 2022, eligible property owners were sent letters about the project and were invited to public meetings at the Ruislip Kings Café. We also conducted door-to-door visits and distributed leaflets at the end of July 2022 to ensure residents had enough time to sign up to the scheme.

Latest progress

The project entered the construction phase in May 2024 and is scheduled to be completed for the vast majority of properties by the end of September 2024. As of mid-August 2024, PFR has been installed on over 25 properties.
