Staying Ahead of the Floods

With September often ranking as one of the wettest months, the risk of flooding rises significantly. Especially as debris builds up in drains and gullies over time. Dawsongroup emc steps in with cutting-edge assets that work with you to fight flooding nationwide, as more extreme weather becomes the norm.

Expert Solutions to Combat the Overflow

The Environment Agency reports that over 4,000 of England’s vital flood defences rate as poor, or very poor. During extreme weather events like flooding, drainage and sewerage systems play a critical role in protecting both people and the environment. As climate change intensifies weather patterns, flooding will continue to increase. The latest State of the UK Climate report shows the UK is now “7% wetter than it used to be, with sea levels also rising by 1.6cm.”

By choosing us, you can gain access to our expert Utility and Drainage team. They are keen to provide you with the best advice about flood combating equipment. Whether you’re part of the public or private sector, we provide continuous support to help you with your needs to make your area a safer place.

With our wide range of solutions, including top-of-the-range gully tankers and sweepers, such as the V65T Bucher, you can tackle all the issues associated with flooding. While sweepers don’t directly tackle the flooding itself, they do ensure the drainage systems are clear.

Past Flooding Issues

Dawsongroup emc help you to avoid common mistakes that exacerbate the impact of flooding. This can include using the wrong equipment, waiting too long to acquire the flood clearing solutions, and ignoring seemingly minor damage, which can all build up and have a bigger impact.

With our proactive approach, Smarter Asset Strategy, and 92% 24-hour fix rate, our fully trained experts are on hand to help with your needs. You will work closely with our consultants to ensure that your chosen solutions are tailored to your flooding needs. That could be sweepers for clearing the leaves that block drains. Or gully tankers that clear the blockages in the underground drainage system. We cover it all.

Are You Prepared for the Future of Flooding?

With the annual flood damage possibly rising by over 20% within the next century, it’s becoming even more important to stay ahead of future changes. This is also why we’ve incorporated more electric vehicles to combat climate change with the aim to reach our Net Zero goal. This includes the Volvo trucks, with vacuum tankers and a mix of sweepers in the fleet.

But beyond the assets, our engineers are fully trained by our manufacturers, and available for both road and workshop support. Additionally, we offer driver training at all levels, from product familiarisation to full certification. This ensures vehicles are operated efficiently to save you time and money. Our full picture services ensure you always stay ahead of the weather.
