Water is both friend and foe at Fladbury Mill, which sits on the banks of the River Avon near Worcester. After the recent heavy rain, the site flooded but Mill House remained dry thanks to window and door guards protecting openings, and under-floor sump pumps. Our mill custodian shared these images of the site flooded last week and this week, with the water slowly receding. We acquired Fladbury in July 2024, as the generous bequest of David Wynn. With the effects of extreme weather now with us, the site offers the opportunity to study these effects and means of mitigation in ways that should help other building owners and managers. If you are worried about flooding or have been affected, you can call our technical helpline for advice. It's open 9.30am-12.30pm, Monday - Friday on 020 7456 0916. 📷 Drone footage by Michael Dunning.

Addison Farms, a 270-acre residential development in Delaware, OH, faced stormwater challenges from rooftops and roadways. A 65x165 ft drainage channel was set to be armored with a tied concrete block (TCB) mat. However, Meredith Brothers, a distributor for InstaTurf® Soft Armor, recommended a more cost-effective and efficient alternative: InstaTurf ShearForce™10 hybrid-turf mat After approval from the City of Delaware, installation began in May. ShearForce10 was quick and easy to install, requiring no heavy equipment, and ready for any storm. New grass growth was visible within weeks, and ShearForce10 effectively prevented washouts and channel scour through heavy spring and summer storms.

From Canada’s Success to Frontline’s Future Canadian firefighters have used portable sprinkler systems for decades to protect structures from wildfires, creating wet barriers that significantly reduce the risk of ignition. These systems are manually deployed in real-time to respond to active wildfires. Canadian firefighters call it “structural protection.” The success of these systems is well documented. During the 2016 Fort McMurray wildfire, portable sprinklers saved numerous buildings, and in the Okanagan Valley, sprinklers have regularly saved vineyards and homes. While the US is still getting comfortable with wildfire sprinklers, Canada has long known their value. Frontline builds on this success with digitally connected, permanently installed systems that can be remotely activated. This eliminates manual setup to allow comprehensive defense at scale. Firefighters in British Columbia are using sprinklers to protect the historic town of Barkerville. Check out their structural protection setup efforts in the video below. www.frontlinewildfire.com https://lnkd.in/gCj3bApF #sprinklers #wildfire #structureprotection #fire

Milton will be a catastrophic event for Florida's Gulf Coast. Post Andrew building codes were not implemented in this area of Florida until 2002. It is estimated that 75% of the buildings in Pinellas and Hillsborough counties were built before the stronger building codes. Therefore, one can expect there to be enormous amounts wind and windborne debris damage from Milton unless it moves much further south towards Punta Gorda-Ft. Myers areas.
