People affected by flooding in Northern Ireland say there are many challenges ahead.
The clean-up operation is continuing in Portadown followingBut now residents' attention is turning towards how they will repair the damage to their homes.
Brian Toal's house in Park Road was flooded and he said his insurance company warned him he might need to move out for at least three months while repairs were carried out.While his insurer has offered hotel accommodation for a few nights he has no permanent long-term option and may have to stay with family or friends.
"We've plenty of places to go to but I can't get a house - I've asked landlords and they have nothing."Sinn Féin councillor Paul Duffy, who lives in Portadown, said some people had very few options. He said the the amount of money for people affected by flooding may not be enough and that it should be "brought up to date" if necessary."Neighbours have helped neighbours and they have all gone that step further to help."
