The following measures are strongly recommended, although this list is not exhaustive:- - Raising the level of the building by at least 300mm above local levels; - Waterproof membrane in the ground floor; - Waterproof plaster and waterproofing to ground floor; - Electrics from the upstairs down and sockets high up off the ground floor; - Non return valves on the sewerage pipes; - Emergency escape plan for each individual property; - Air brick covers; and - Movable flood barriers for entrances
