The Difference Between Floodwalls, Levees, and Sea Walls

When flood waters start to rise, it’s too late to start thinking about protecting your city, business or home from flooding. That needs to be done long before the flood waters come along. There are many different ways to prevent the damage caused by flooding, and it’s important to know which type of flooding could most impact the area you’re hoping to protect. Fortunately, Permacast Precast Concrete Walls & Fences knows a little bit about floodwalls, levees and seawalls- all common structures in Florida and Texas, where hurricanes and other extreme weather bring plenty of water to major cities and coastal regions. Here’s what we’ve learned that we hope will help you make a wise decision about flood prevention- before it’s too late.
