Slip testing for stairs, ramps & level changes

Any slope or step raises the stakes — a marginal floor becomes a real hazard.

Why it’s a high-risk area

Stairs, ramps and small changes of level concentrate slip and trip risk and are easy to overlook until someone falls. The surface on the going and the step nosings both matter.

How we test it

We test the relevant surfaces, including in the line of travel, and flag where a slope makes a borderline reading more serious.

If it falls short

Anti-slip nosings, strips or treatments, plus clear edge definition; we re-test after any work.

Independent by design

We test floors; we don’t sell flooring, coatings or cleaning. Whatever we find in this area, there’s nothing we’re selling off the back of it — just the measured result and honest advice.
