Pendulum slip resistance testing for Burton upon Trent property managers, hospitality operators, insurers and solicitors. Next working day on site as standard. UKAS-accredited reports inside 72 hours of the visit.
Birmingham and the Black Country have the highest density of public-realm slip claims outside London. The combination of heavy footfall and aged commercial flooring is the main driver.
Most of our Burton upon Trent-area work comes from manufacturing facilities and logistics hubs. The instructions tend to look the same across all of them — a slip has happened, a letter has arrived, or a new floor needs signing off before it goes into use.
We test at every kind of commercial premises across Staffordshire, including high-street retailers, leisure centres and schools. The methodology is the same on each one. The pendulum reading is the pendulum reading.
Typical Burton upon Trent call-out: a fall on glazed paving outside a shopfront in winter. We try to be on site fast enough to read the floor in roughly the same condition as the incident. Once it's been mopped, treated or recoated, the reading is no longer about the floor that hurt someone.
Standard turnaround for Burton upon Trent bookings is three days end-to-end. Same-day visits are sometimes possible if a surveyor is already in West Midlands — quickest way to find out is to ring.
Quickest is to ring. We'll agree the Burton upon Trent site address, scope, access arrangements, and a fixed price. Quote in writing within the hour.
