About Slip Testing Bristol

A specialist slip resistance testing service for Avon and the wider South West and the wider South West region, operated by Surface Performance Ltd — a UKAS ISO 17025 accredited testing laboratory.

Who We Are

Slip Testing Bristol is the Avon and the wider South West-region service of Surface Performance Ltd, a UK testing and consultancy laboratory. Surface Performance holds UKAS ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation for slip resistance testing and additional accreditations across sports surface testing for the FA, FIFA, World Rugby, FIH and ITF.

What We Do

We test floors. Specifically, we measure how slippery a floor is — under wet and dry conditions, with the test methods recognised by the HSE, the British Standards Institution, and the courts. We turn that data into clear, defensible reports that property managers, architects, insurers, claimant solicitors and defendant solicitors can rely on.

Our Coverage

From our regional engineering coverage we attend sites across the whole of the South West — Bristol, Bath, Weston-super-Mare, Cheltenham, Gloucester, Swindon, Taunton, Exeter, Plymouth, Salisbury and beyond. We also handle national and international instructions through the parent company.

  • UKAS ISO/IEC 17025 — for slip resistance testing
  • FA accredited — for sports pitch testing
  • FIFA accredited — for football turf and Quality Pro pitch testing
  • World Rugby accredited — for rugby surface testing
  • FIH accredited — for hockey surface testing
