Birmingham
Birmingham and the West Midlands combine dense terraced housing with clay soils that hold water after prolonged rain.

Housing
Terraces in Sparkbrook, Small Heath, Handsworth and Erdington often share party walls — a leak upstairs can affect several flats. Post-war estates and new-build apartments have different drying needs.
Flood context
The River Rea and Tame catchments feature in Environment Agency mapping. Severn Trent Water covers much of the region for clean and waste water.
