As a Lead Local Flood Authority (LLFA), we have a duty to investigate all significant flood events (more than 5 properties internally flooded during a storm event).

You can help us by reporting flooding incidents to engineering@torbay.gov.uk

Financial help

If your home or business is flooded during a severe weather event you may be able to apply for financial support from the government. Information on the financial support schemes that have been made available following a flood will be provided here.
