I have worked with John for many years from developing best practice standards through to both design and implementation of simple and strategic flood protection projects.
John has always ensured that the customer need is delivered which was best demonstrated when we worked on a significant project adjacent to an estuary which encompassed significant ground works across the site, protection to critical buildings however also understanding what areas the client would be willing to leave unprotected and how that impacted the overall strategic plan
Following his introductions to us in this specialised field, John was able to quickly and expertly identify the most suitable flood protection strategy for the Anglers Tavern following the 2022 floods. After developing these plans, he was subsequently able to navigate our team through what was a highly specialised journey, providing expert advice through the on-site installation and off-site fabrication phases.
We look forward to partnering with John on any upcoming flood protection requirements across our national portfolio of venues, and provide our recommendations towards his engagement on any flood protection related matters.
We have now installed all of the flood defence measures that were recommended by you when you prepared a consulting report whilst at Aquobex. I am very pleased to report that they are totally effective.

FAQs
Flooding in Australia is commonly caused by heavy rainfall, cyclones, storm surges, riverine flooding, flash floods, and tidal inundation. Urbanisation, inadequate drainage, deforestation, and climate change worsen flood risks.
Assessing flood risk involves evaluating factors like proximity to water bodies (including hidden sources), historical data, topography, the amount of impermeable paving, drains, and land use. As a specialist, John tailors assessments to your property or community and offers various mitigation strategies.
A range of solutions may be available depending on the flood type, property, and location. The solution may include elements of both wet and dry floodproofing. Dry proofing aims to keep the water out, whilst wet proofing aims to make the property more resilient to internal flooding and allow people to return to their homes and businesses faster.
Selecting flood protection solutions depends on factors like flood risk level, property construction characteristics, budget, and people issues. A tailored recommendation, including structural protection solutions and non-structural emergency management procedures, will follow a detailed study through on-site and desk-top analysis.
