Perthshire · Big Tree Country
Sure footing, from the Tay to the glens.
Independent, UKAS-accredited slip testing across Perth and Perthshire — the Fair City, Highland Perthshire and the heart of Scotland. Grip measured wet and dry, with a report you can rely on.
The case for it
Why grip 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.
Who carries the duty
The responsibility is clear: anyone in charge of a floor that people use must keep it safe and be able to evidence that it has been checked. It follows from the Health and Safety at Work Act and the Workplace Regulations, which apply throughout Scotland; in care settings, the Care Inspectorate looks for slip risk to be assessed and managed. A measured value is that evidence.
Independent, by principle
We lay no flooring, sell no coatings and earn no commission — so the figure depends on nothing but the measurement. It comes from the same UKAS-accredited laboratory that has tested floors for Amazon, Gatwick, British Airways and TUI, and which assesses more than 300 flooring products a year.
