If you operate a insurance & legal site in Nottingham, slip testing is one of the cheapest forms of insurance you can buy. Our team provides BS EN 16165:2021 pendulum testing across Old Market Square, the Lace Market and Victoria Centre and the wider East Midlands, with signed reports inside 24 hours.
Nottingham's insurance & legal estate concentrates around Old Market Square, the Lace Market and Victoria Centre, with a wider catchment across West Bridgford, Beeston, Mapperley, Wollaton, Sherwood and the rest of East Midlands. The HSE region of competence is Midlands.
Within this sector, the typical risk vectors are loss of evidence due to remediation, refurbishment or routine cleaning before testing can occur. Slip-related personal-injury claims continue to make up the largest single category of UK public-liability insurance loss. The duty-holder is regulated by the Civil Procedure Rules, particularly CPR Part 35, and the courts, and expert evidence under CPR Part 35 must be impartial, independent, and directed to the court — not to the instructing party.
Typical surfaces we test in Nottingham insurance & legal sites include any surface relevant to a pleaded claim, with chain-of-custody documentation. Where the surface is wet, contaminated, or in a barefoot zone, the appropriate slider and contamination protocol is selected at the point of test.
We default to BS EN 16165:2021 Annex C for in-situ pedestrian pendulum testing, supplemented with BS 7976-2 where a client specification or insurer protocol requires it. Sliders are selected per application — Four-S for shod-foot, TRL for highway-type surfaces, Wet-Barefoot for poolside if specified.
For insurance & legal specifically: rapid mobilisation, full chain-of-custody evidence pack, witness-statement-suitable narrative report.
Reports are PDF-delivered within 24 hours of the site visit. They include the full PTV dataset, photography, calibration cert references, UKSRG classification, methodology narrative, and remediation recommendations where any test point falls below the relevant slip-risk threshold.
