Sheffield’s steel heritage, two major universities, and concentration of professional sports venues combine to drive regular UKAS-accredited slip testing demand across the city.
Sheffield (South Yorkshire, Yorkshire) is steel, universities and sporting venues. Our Sheffield client base spans multiple sectors — public, commercial, industrial, and legal. The sectors we most regularly test in Sheffield include:
Sheffield’s topography — the city sits on seven hills — means external paving faces unusual slope and drainage conditions. Slip testing in Sheffield often involves sloped surfaces that combine gradient with wet-weather contamination, producing distinct risk profiles.
We tested the external paving of a Sheffield city-centre shopping destination after winter slip incidents on a sloped approach. Wet PTV on the sloped granite was PTV 27 — within moderate range but inadequate given the incline. The client installed targeted anti-slip treatment strips at key approach angles.
All our services are available across Sheffield and the wider South Yorkshire 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 Sheffield 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.
Typical BS 7976 / BS EN 16165 pendulum testing in Sheffield costs between £500 and £1,500 per visit, depending on the number of test areas and site access. Every quote includes a full UKAS-accredited report within 48 hours.
