Mount Royal-based flood mitigation leader adds to its operations with 2 acquisitions

Mount Royal-based Floodproofing.com announced it made two recent acquisitions: installation-focused National Flood Protection LLC, based in Norwich, Connecticut; and flood barrier manufacturer Flood Panel, based in Jupiter, Florida.

These acquisitions solidify Floodproofing.com’s position as the go-to international resource for all things flood-related, with a turnkey approach to flood mitigation.

According to Tom Little, CEO and president of Floodproofing.com, fully incorporating the installation expertise of National Flood Protection and Flood Panel’s time-tested, performance-rated products into the company’s portfolio allows it to better serve at-risk areas with a true, all-encompassing solution for flood resiliency.

The company now manufactures and sells both wet and dry flood mitigation products, and provides consultation, design, engineering, installation, post-installation support and even flood insurance. In addition, Floodproofing.com offers professional education and continuing education credits to a variety of professionals affiliated with the design-build industry. It also provides both National Flood Insurance Program and private flood insurance options with the lowest possible premiums for home and business owners.

“With the industry expertise of National Flood Protection and the impressive portfolio of flood protection products offered by Flood Panel, Floodproofing.com is putting Mother Nature on notice in our crusade to mitigate the devastating effects of flooding and create greater flood resiliency across the world,” said Little, who is a Certified Floodplain Manager. “We are proud to have an even more in-depth offering of products and services dedicated to protecting communities from the devastation caused by flooding.”

Flood Panel manufactures several dry floodproofing products, including the Super Flood Log, Custom Flood Panel, hinged flood gates and dual-function flood doors.

“Floodproofing.com is proud to manufacture products in the United States, starting with its line of Smart Vent engineered flood vents more than 25 years ago,” Little added. “With the acquisition of Flood Panel, Floodproofing.com adds another Made in America product line to the Floodproofing.com catalog.”

National Flood Protection, established in 2013, has partnered with Floodproofing.com since 2021 as the dedicated national installation partner for its flood mitigation solutions. In addition, National Flood Protection served as the exclusive dealer for Flood Panel. Russ Ellington, former president and owner of National Flood Protection, will serve as senior vice president of program management for Floodproofing.com.

“The installation team is well-versed in floodproofing requirements in all 50 states and has vast knowledge and experience with the products Floodproofing.com distributes,” Ellington said. “Our expertise gives customers the peace of mind that these quality products are installed per manufacturer specifications, on budget and on time.”
