Sydney Slip Testing Services

Australian Slip Testing conducts on-site, non-disruptive slip resistance testing across Sydney using NATA-accredited methods in accordance with AS 4586 and AS 4663.

Wet Pendulum Slip Testing is the most widely used slip test method in Australia, measuring slip resistance under wet conditions using a calibrated pendulum device. It applies to commercial, retail, external, and public environments and is widely accepted in legal and insurance contexts. Visit our wet pendulum slip testing guide.

Dry Floor Friction Testing measures the Coefficient of Friction on dry internal surfaces using the Tortus Floor Friction Tester. It is used for internal environments expected to remain dry, including corridors, office lobbies, and retail spaces. Visit our dry floor friction testing guide.

Who We Work With in Sydney

Australian Slip Testing works with a broad range of Sydney clients across the public and private sectors.

Strata and body corporate managers require testing across common area pathways, car parks, pool decks, stairways, and external walkways. Sydney’s high-density apartment market is one of the largest in Australia, generating consistent demand for independent slip testing across strata properties. Visit our strata managers guide to slip testing.

Facilities management companies use independent slip testing as part of scheduled safety audits and risk management programs across Sydney’s extensive commercial, retail, and institutional portfolio. Visit our slip testing guide for facilities management companies.

Commercial office buildings require testing across lift lobbies, corridors, stairways, ramps, and entry foyers. Sydney’s CBD and major suburban office markets generate significant demand for independent slip resistance testing.

Retail and shopping centres present consistent slip risks across tiled concourses, food courts, amenities, and entry points. We service major Sydney retail precincts and suburban shopping centres across the greater Sydney region.

Hospitals and healthcare facilities require careful assessment across clinical corridors, wet areas, and patient bathrooms. Slip resistance is a critical component of patient and staff safety across Sydney’s extensive public and private healthcare network.

Aged care facilities must manage slip risk for residents with varying mobility. Regular testing is a key part of duty of care obligations across Sydney’s significant aged care sector. Visit our guide to slip testing for schools, aged care, and vulnerable person environments.

Builders and developers use slip resistance testing during building handover to confirm compliance with NCC requirements and AS 4586 classifications across Sydney’s active construction market. Visit our slip testing guide for builders and construction.

Cleaning companies and contractors use slip testing to verify floor performance before and after cleaning treatments on Sydney commercial properties. Visit our slip testing guide for cleaning companies.

We service all Sydney suburbs and the wider New South Wales region, including the CBD, Eastern Suburbs, Inner West, North Shore, Northern Beaches, Western Sydney, and the Sutherland Shire.

What is NATA accreditation and why does it matter?

NATA (National Association of Testing Authorities) accreditation means our testing methods and reporting systems have been independently assessed against internationally recognised standards. For Sydney clients, NATA accreditation means your results are objective, traceable, and suitable for compliance, legal, and insurance purposes.

How much does slip testing cost in Sydney?

Pricing starts from $375, though, property size, number of test locations, and testing methods required. Call 0405 042 814 or contact us online for a free, no-obligation quote.

How often should slip testing be carried out in Sydney?

There is no single mandated frequency for all buildings. Testing is generally recommended after any flooring work or changes to cleaning regimes, following a slip incident, and periodically as part of an ongoing risk management program. For more information, visit our guide on how often slip testing should be conducted.

Do you provide a written report after testing?

Yes. Every inspection includes a detailed written report outlining tested areas, surface descriptions, methods used, slip resistance classifications, and practical commentary suitable for compliance, insurance, and risk management purposes.

Do you provide sample slip testing for floor selection in Sydney?

Yes. Through our laboratory at Australian Slip Ratings, we provide sample slip testing for architects, designers, and developers selecting floor surfaces for Sydney projects. Sample testing allows you to confirm a floor surface meets the required AS 4586 classification before it is installed.
