Stirlingshire · Gateway to the Highlands
Solid footing, the length of Stirlingshire.
Independent, UKAS-accredited slip testing across Stirling and the shire — from the castle city to the Trossachs and the Forth valley. Grip measured wet and dry, with a report you can rely on.
The case for it
Why it matters
Grip is invisible, and it fades quietly as floors wear and cleaning routines drift. A test sets a clear figure against it — long before anyone discovers the problem the hard way. The HSE is plain: slips and trips are the leading cause of serious injury at work.

How a visit goes
From booking to report
We come to you
On site, at a time that suits — out of hours where that keeps you open.
We measure it
Wet and dry, with the pendulum and, where it matters, surface roughness.
You receive proof
A clear, accredited report an insurer, the HSE or the Care Inspectorate will accept.
The duty of care
The duty is well established: whoever is responsible for a floor in use must keep it safe and be able to show it has been checked. This arises from the Health and Safety at Work Act and the Workplace Regulations, which apply across Scotland; in care settings, the Care Inspectorate looks for slip risk to be assessed and managed. A measured value provides that assurance.
Independence, assured
We are entirely independent — we lay no flooring, sell no coatings and take no commission — so the figure rests on nothing but the measurement. It is produced by the same UKAS-accredited laboratory that has tested floors for Amazon, Gatwick, British Airways and TUI, and which examines more than 300 flooring products a year.
