Slip testing, sorted by the floor you’ve actually got.
Whatever your floor is made of, we measure how much grip it has — wet and dry — and give you a UKAS-accredited report. Pick your surface below, or get a quote.

Start with your floor
Find your floor type
Different surfaces fail in different ways — and need testing for different reasons. Pick the one that matches your building.
Ceramic & porcelain tiles
Glazed ceramic and porcelain tiles are everywhere — entrances, kitchens, wet rooms, shopping-centre malls — and they’re one of the surfaces most likely to fail a wet slip test.
How we test it →Vinyl & safety flooring
Sheet vinyl and ‘safety’ flooring (the kind with grit or aggregate built in) are common in kitchens, healthcare and wet areas — but they don’t stay slip-resistant forever.
How we test it →Stone, terrazzo & polished concrete
Marble, granite, terrazzo and polished concrete look superb in a foyer — and are some of the most slippery floors there are once they’re wet.
How we test it →Resin & epoxy floors
Resin and epoxy floors are the workhorses of industrial and commercial buildings — and how they perform underfoot depends entirely on the finish.
How we test it →Concrete, quarry tile & industrial
Power-floated concrete, quarry tiles and sealed industrial floors carry a lot of traffic — and a lot of water, grease and dust.
How we test it →External paving, decking & ramps
Outside surfaces face the worst conditions of all — rain, frost, algae and slope — and are a common source of slip and trip claims.
How we test it →Why bother
A clean floor isn’t the same as a safe one
You can’t judge grip by eye, and slip resistance changes over time as floors wear and cleaning routines change. Slips and trips are the most common cause of major injury in UK workplaces — and after one happens, the first question is whether you can prove the floor was safe. A measured PTV is that proof.
36 or above is the low-risk threshold — about a one-in-a-million chance of a slip. More on the test and standards →
