Pendulum slip resistance testing for Kendal property managers, hospitality operators, insurers and solicitors. Next working day on site as standard. UKAS-accredited reports inside 72 hours of the visit.
Manchester and Liverpool generate the bulk of our North West work — retail centres, hospitality groups, and the airport hospitality estates around both. Bookings cluster at the start of each week.
Most of our Kendal-area work comes from retail centres and hotel groups. 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 Cumbria, including pubs, high-street retailers and leisure centres. The methodology is the same on each one. The pendulum reading is the pendulum reading.
Typical Kendal call-out: a fall on a tiled pub floor after a cellar overflow. 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 Kendal bookings is three days end-to-end. Same-day visits are sometimes possible if a surveyor is already in North West — quickest way to find out is to ring.
Quickest is to ring. We'll agree the Kendal site address, scope, access arrangements, and a fixed price. Quote in writing within the hour.

Most Kendal 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 next working day. For everything else, the form does the job.
