The data behind a Flood Performance Certificate

Flood Performance Certificates will be piloted to give homeowners standard information on flood risk and resilience. A desktop assessment needs the home’s flood exposure and how it is built. We hold both for every home in England.

Selling on York Road? Answer the flood questions before they hold up your sale

Congratulations on agreeing the sale of your home on York Road.

Your home is outside the mapped flood zones, but the River Severn flood of March 1947 and the River Swilgate flood of July 2007 both came within 98 m of it. Your buyer's solicitor, lender and insurer will ask.

A Flood Performance Certificate sets out the risk and what would reduce it, in a form all three can use.

We can complete a desktop assessment this week, before the questions arrive.

Yours,
Your company

Captured from Homedata's API and Lead Source on 17 Oct 2026. Its listing photos were tagged by an AI image model, 1 Oct 2026: room types read at 80% confidence or more; the model's other tags are not shown. Price growth is for the GL20 district, not this home: the median sold price over the year to 22 May 2026 against the year before, captured 18 Oct 2026. Trees, ground movement and clay from our ground stability data, captured 18 Oct 2026: tree heights are measured, root reach is inferred; ground movement is the nearest satellite reading, for the area rather than this building. Flood readings are measured to the home's title boundary.

323 years on one line

Every recorded flood since 1703, and the two that came close

The Environment Agency's recorded flood outlines go back to 1703. For this home, two reached within 98 m. It has never been recorded as flooded itself.

Recorded flood outlines from 1703 to today, measured to the home's title boundary. The home is outside the mapped flood zones; the outlines show where water has actually been.

What a desktop assessment needs

  1. Flood zones and their distance. Inside or outside zones 2 and 3, and how far to the edge.
  2. Recorded floods within 250 m. Each by name, river and date.
  3. Defences. What stands between the home and the river.
  4. Age, walls, floors, basement and height. How the home would take water.
  5. Sold STC. The moment a buyer asks the question.
