The Channel Islands coverage.
We attend hotels in person across The Channel Islands, including:
Reports are accepted by all The Channel Islands local authority Environmental Health teams.
The Channel Islands's hotel sector reflects Jersey luxury beach hotels, Guernsey heritage properties & Sark/Alderney boutique venues — properties whose slip-claim exposure benefits materially from rigorous, independent UKAS-accredited testing. Our The Channel Islands programme is shaped around the Channel Islands' destination luxury hotel sector.
Court-admissible reports for The Channel Islands hotels
Slip-risk profiles vary dramatically by property type. Knowing the The Channel Islands hotel sector means we calibrate our testing scope and pricing precisely — no over-engineering, no missed exposure.
Jersey luxury beach hotels (Atlantic, Longueville Manor, Greenhills)
Guernsey heritage and coastal hotels (Old Government House, Bella Luce)
Sark and Alderney boutique guesthouses
St Helier and St Peter Port city hotels
Generic slip-test providers send the same report regardless of property type or region. We adjust our test methodology to the specific risk patterns we see in The Channel Islands.
Open-aspect Channel Island coastal hotels face the most aggressive Atlantic salt weathering of any UK hotel.
Local granite outdoor surfaces vary widely in PTV when wet — bespoke testing essential.
Each zone of a hotel carries a distinct slip-risk profile and a distinct minimum PTV under UKSRG and HSE guidance. Across The Channel Islands, we test all of them with the slider, contaminant and shod-state appropriate to actual use.
Pool decks, changing-room thresholds, sauna and steam-room floors across The Channel Islands hotels.
Marble lobbies, polished porcelain bathrooms, corridors and entrances across The Channel Islands.
Greasy-shod testing using slider 55 (4S rubber) for chef-line and prep zones in The Channel Islands hotels.
Treatment-room thresholds, hammams, relaxation lounges, barefoot circuits in The Channel Islands spa hotels.

Pricing for a single-property, multi-zone The Channel Islands visit (pool surround, lobby, kitchen, bathrooms, spa) typically falls in the £500–£1,400 range, all-in. Larger properties with more test points, or those needing barefoot and shod-greasy testing, sit higher. Multi-property programmes attract group rates.
We provide fixed-price written quotations within one working day — no per-test charges, no hidden travel surcharges.
For routine due-diligence testing, we typically schedule a The Channel Islands visit within 2–3 weeks of quotation acceptance. For incident-driven or urgent testing — particularly where a personal-injury claim is anticipated — we aim to attend within 48–72 hours to capture the surface in conditions representative of the incident.
We recommend annual testing as a baseline for The Channel Islands hotel properties, with high-risk zones (pool surrounds, kitchens, spa floors, main entrances) tested every 6–12 months. Additional testing should be triggered after refurbishment, a reportable slip incident (RIDDOR or near-miss), changes to cleaning regime or chemicals, or insurer-driven request as part of underwriting review.
Our reports are produced under a stack of recognised standards: BS 7976-2 / BS EN 16165:2021 (the British and European pendulum test standard), UKSRG Issue 6 (2024) (UK Slip Resistance Group guidelines), HSE Slip Assessment Tool, and UKAS ISO/IEC 17025 (lab accreditation). For BOH staff zones, we additionally apply PAS 13 (safety walkway code of practice).
Yes. We offer urgent call-outs and out-of-hours testing for The Channel Islands hotels — particularly valuable when responding to a slip incident or capturing surface conditions before they change. Out-of-hours visits (overnight, pre-breakfast, between covers) are scheduled in coordination with the hotel manager to ensure minimal impact on guests and staff.
We hold UKAS ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation — issued and audited by UKAS, the only national accreditation body recognised by the UK Government. Many providers in The Channel Islands display ISO logos but are not UKAS-accredited; the difference is decisive when test data is presented to a court or insurer. UKAS-accredited labs can demonstrate a complete audit trail (calibration, technician competence, consumables traceability), and only those results carry the highest evidential weight in litigation.
Whether you operate a single boutique property or a group with sites across The Channel Islands, we'll return a fully-costed, no-obligation quotation within one working day.
Mon–Fri, 8am–6pm
Out-of-hours testing available by arrangement across The Channel Islands.
