Flood Risk
Surface Water
Very low
Unlike flooding from rivers, surface water flooding can happen many miles from a river, often in places that people wouldn’t expect because it’s a long way from a river or stream – it happens simply because there is nowhere else for the rainwater to go. Risk ratings are measured as:
High Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 30 (3.3%) in any one year.
Medium Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 100 (1.0%) in any one year.
Low Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 1000 (0.1%) in any one year.
Very Low Risk - an area in which the risk is below 1 in 1000 (0.1%) in any one year.

Lee Russell
The Woodley office is owned and operated by franchisee, Lee Russell, who started his agency career in 1991. Lee has set up his business model to look after clients on a personal level, rather than high volume. So, you are always guaranteed Lee's personal attention but with the back-up of all properties being marketed via the Davis Tate network.

Lee has lived locally since 1996, is a father of four and when he's not looking after his clients he enjoys camping in his VW California (his car us an unusual choice for an estate agent) and spending quality time with his family.
Testimonial 1
Lee Russell is the best estate agent to deal with in Woodley! I have had the unfortunate pleasure of having to also deal with the worst also...(Parkers, do not touch them, please!)
Lee is professional, knowledgeable, friendly, courteous, understanding and above all a true gentleman. Would highly recommend Lee Russell to anyone. Thank you for making this very long journey for us a bearable one. There are not enough stars to rate Lee.
Testimonial 2
I've met plenty of estate agents in my time, but none quite so easy to get on with as Lee from Davis Tate. Made the process of buying my new house as straight forward as he could and was more than happy when I needed repeat viewings.
I'm keeping his number stored in my phone!
Testimonial 3
Lee was an absolute pleasure to deal with from initial enquiry all the way through to completion. Our initial meeting was productive and Lee was very understanding of our requirements and gave us honest guidance based on his local knowledge and experience.

He made my wife and I feel very relaxed and at ease in our dealings with him. He was always willing to give us advice but actioned whatever our decision was at the end.

What is Radon?

Radon is a natural radioactive gas, which enters buildings from the ground. Exposure to high concentrations increases the risk of lung cancer.

The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) recommends that radon levels should be reduced in homes where the annual average is at or above 200 becquerels per cubic metre (200 Bq/m ). This level is termed the Action Level.

The UK Health Security Agency defines radon Affected Areas as those with 1% chance or more of a house having a radon concentration at or above the Action Level of 200 Bq -3 m.
