Quick Dam Expanding Flood Barrier, 6 In. X 5 Ft., 2 Per Bag

I wasn't sure these would do much. I bought them for a basement area that leaks when we have torrential downpours. They have worked like a dream. I have not removed them since I put them in. They swell went wet, dry out and swell again. Have had them in place for a while now.

Being the low house on the block, all the rain from up the hill ends up in my yard and the bad one flooded into part of my house due to the foundation not being built up as it should have been so very poor drainage and to top it off had water up to my front door as that entry is so very low, so decided to give these a try and they really work great for me. In fact, I just ordered another set (2/pkg) for the size I needed and have not had any water problem at my front entry since.

Quick Dams are the only reliable water barriers I've used for 10 years. They are really only good for one use- takes too long for water to evaporate but they really, really work. Photos from 9/4/26

Rain was coming in at the bottom of the garage door and these barriers fixed the issue. I love this easy fix and would work well wherever their is a need.

Getting ready for the rainy season and the reviews were great.

Excellent at stopping water from seeping in my patio

these work extremely well and do what they are supposed to do, which seems exceptional these days.

As it says in the description, these "last for months." These are an immediate, but temporary, fix for an emergency or short-term situation. They give you time to solve the problem permanently. I'm using them to hold back water while an addition is being made to my house.

There is very little instruction on how to use. They are flat and light so I am not sure they would stay in position. We haven't had the expected flood so we'll see.

I received text msg that item had arrived but the picture showed PKG left on porch of the main office where I live in a Senior community, which is against the rules. I drove to get it and it was gone. It was never delivered to my apt.
