Bristol combines the South West’s strongest commercial base with a rapidly-growing tech and aerospace cluster. The city’s harbour regeneration, Cabot Circus retail, and strong hospitality scene produce diverse UKAS slip testing workload.
Bristol (Bristol, SW England) is South West hub for tech, aerospace, and hospitality. Our Bristol client base spans multiple sectors — public, commercial, industrial, and legal. The sectors we most regularly test in Bristol include:
Bristol’s Harbourside has seen enormous investment in public-realm paving over the past decade — much of it specified for aesthetic effect. Several high-profile schemes have required retrofit slip testing after commissioning revealed unacceptable wet PTV.
We tested a newly-commissioned Bristol harbour public-realm installation following public complaints about slips. Wet PTV on the decorative sandstone paving was 22 — well below safe threshold. Our report supported a warranty claim against the installer and guided a selective re-surfacing programme.
All our services are available across Bristol and the wider Bristol area — on-site BS 7976 / BS EN 16165 pendulum testing, laboratory sample certification, forensic expert witness work, and annual portfolio testing contracts. Reports are delivered within 48 hours of site attendance, under UKAS ISO 17025 (Schedule No. 7933).
Our qualified engineers travel to Bristol from our Sunbury-on-Thames laboratory, alongside every other major UK city. A single UKAS ISO 17025 accreditation (Schedule No. 7933) covers every site we attend.
