Pat Coates, of Lincolnshire Resilience Forum (LRF), said Boston and Greatford, near Stamford, had been affected by further flooding overnight.
“We’re still assessing the numbers. I haven’t got the exact number of properties, but it was more than a few,” he said.
“We deployed fire resources to assist with pumping to try to reduce the water levels, and we didn’t have to evacuate anybody. People managed to move upstairs and they were prepared for it.”
He said the flood water level was receding, and teams were working to reopen roads.
Mr Coates urged people in flood risk areas to check for information and updates.
Boston VIBEStuart Bateman, who owns Batemans brewery in Wainfleet, Lincolnshire, said two of his properties in the market town had been flooded.
“They are the same two properties that were flooded 18 months ago. This could have been partially been prevented,” he said.
“One of the properties is still being repaired from the last flood.”
Mr Bateman said the other property had a brewer living in it, and added: “He’s got back in about six months ago and he’s had to move out again.
“It’s the same situation, same problem that we had last time it flooded.”
On Monday, about 50 pupils and their teachers were evacuated from a school in Edenham, near Bourne.
