Pendulum slip resistance testing for Trowbridge property managers, hospitality operators, insurers and solicitors. Next working day on site as standard. UKAS-accredited reports inside 72 hours of the visit.
South West work is heavily seasonal — coastal hospitality through summer, agricultural processing year-round, and a steady undercurrent of tourist-attraction sign-offs. Travel from Surrey is the bottleneck on response times.
Most of our Trowbridge-area work comes from agricultural processors and heritage estates. 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 Wiltshire, including care homes, pubs and high-street retailers. The methodology is the same on each one. The pendulum reading is the pendulum reading.
Typical Trowbridge call-out: a slip on a pool surround at a leisure centre. 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 Trowbridge bookings is three days end-to-end. Same-day visits are sometimes possible if a surveyor is already in South West — quickest way to find out is to ring.
Quickest is to ring. We'll agree the Trowbridge site address, scope, access arrangements, and a fixed price. Quote in writing within the hour.

Most Trowbridge 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.
