Pendulum slip resistance testing for Chelmsford property managers, hospitality operators, insurers and solicitors. Same-day where possible on site as standard. UKAS-accredited reports inside 72 hours of the visit.
A lot of our East work is along the A14 corridor and the A12 down to Essex. Cambridge, Stansted, Felixstowe and the Norfolk coast all sit inside reasonable next-day reach.
Most of our Chelmsford-area work comes from cold-store operators and logistics centres. 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 Essex, including leisure centres, supermarkets and retail parks. The methodology is the same on each one. The pendulum reading is the pendulum reading.
Typical Chelmsford call-out: a fall on polished stone in a hotel reception. 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 Chelmsford bookings is three days end-to-end. Same-day visits are sometimes possible if a surveyor is already in East of England — quickest way to find out is to ring.
Quickest is to ring. We'll agree the Chelmsford site address, scope, access arrangements, and a fixed price. Quote in writing within the hour.

Most Chelmsford bookings can be combined with a same-route visit to a neighbouring town. Useful for retail estates and care home groups operating across multiple sites.
Pick up the phone if it's urgent — we'll be on your floor same-day where possible. For everything else, the form does the job.
