Quick Dam QD65-4 Water Activated 5ft Flood Barrier, Black

This product is a must with our changing rainfall these days and you can use them outside or in. I originally bought one at a local d.i.y store to keep rain water from entering my garage, then I couldn't find them again until I saw them on Amazon. This product works great. Our driveway slopes down towards the house and no more water enters underneath the garage door now. My neighbour's tenants had some flooding with water coming over the track on their the sliding door in the back. I took one of these Quick Dams over and it helped them tremendously. I also let another neighbour know how good they are and she is using it to keep water out of her garage too. Whenever I know a storm is coming, I lay these barriers down beforehand. Just keep in mind that they should be laying flat to dry out so the gel inside does fall all to one end, turn them over regularly, and keep them out of the hot sun when drying. It can take even a few months for them to dry completely depending on how much water they had to absorb. You can use them over and over again. They can also be stacked on top of each other if water levels rise above an inch or so. I wouldn't be without them and it's nice to know that instead of running around trying to find a store that has them, I can buy 4 or more at a time right on Amazon.

ayer las utilice con tormenta, funcionaron muy bien

I have a small enclosed patio. When it rains the patio get flooded, and water come into the enclosure from underneath. I've done everything to seal the leaks. I decided to try sand bags but heard they were to heavy. Read the reviews and thought I'd try this. You have to get them wet so they can expand. They worked great and kept the water from coming in. Hooray!! One thing I didn't like, the expandable stuff inside the bag comes out a little and it very slimy, a jelly like goo. I bought 4 5' bags. I will buy 2 more.

Having a problem redirecting water from under my garage door. Purchased the 4-pack of 5-foot Quick Dam sections to deter large amounts of water entering one side of my garage. Placed two outside to reroute and block the water, and another inside the door to deter any that water that would enter at a corner. Worked perfectly during some very heavy rainstorms. Easy to handle and did the job !!

The Quick Dam Flood Barrier does it job well regarding protecting an area it surrounds from flood waters by inflating itself when it comes into contact with water. The barrier is very easy to set up and start using. And it is fairly durable as it can withstand being stepped upon (when deflated)! Please note that stepping or driving over an inflated barrier that filled with water will probably, permanently damage it.The one semi-major flaw that I've found is that it takes a pretty-long while (about a couple days) for an inflated barrier to deflate and get rid of all the water in it. And this is after I hung the deflated barrier outside, exposed to the sun.Overall though, this flood barrier does its job well and is a product I would recommend if you need a way to protect your home or value items from flood waters.
