Schedule a Walkway Evaluation.

Every recommendation begins with testing. We measure how your floors actually perform before discussing any changes.

If it hasn’t been tested, it’s still an assumption. A walkway evaluation establishes a measurable baseline using professional DCOF testing aligned with recognized ANSI walkway standards and other safety frameworks.

Structured, on-site measurement.

Walkway evaluations are performed by technicians using calibrated DCOF testing equipment in live commercial environments. The focus is objective slip resistance testing, not selling floor treatments.

What we do on-site.

Each walkway evaluation follows a defined process so results are repeatable and appropriate for internal reviews, safety committees, and walkway safety audits.

  • Evaluate key walkways, entries, and transition areas
  • Measure slip resistance using calibrated DCOF equipment
  • Compare results to recognized ANSI/NFSI safety thresholds
  • Identify surfaces that fall below or approach acceptable ranges
  • Provide written documentation with location-specific findings

This is objective measurement. Not opinion. Slip resistance testing is performed with standardized methods so results are consistent with recognized ANSI walkway standards and DCOF testing practices.

Scope set in advance.

Before arrival, we confirm which corridors, entries, and specific areas of concern will be included. This keeps the evaluation focused and predictable for your team.

What you receive.

The outcome of the evaluation is clear documentation, not a sales proposal. You receive structured findings that support internal decision-making and slip-and-fall risk reduction planning.

  • Numeric DCOF values for tested areas
  • Identification of compliant and non-compliant surfaces
  • Ranked recommendations, if needed
  • Documentation suitable for internal review, insurance, and compliance purposes

If your surfaces already meet recognized standards, the recommendation may simply be documentation. In those cases, your report confirms current performance without suggesting changes.

Clear, traceable reporting.

Reports are organized by location so Facilities Directors, Healthcare Administrators, and Hospitality teams can quickly see which walkways, entries, and transition areas were tested and how they performed.

Recommendations, when appropriate, are framed in order of impact and practicality. The goal is to align response levels with actual test results so decisions remain proportionate to measured walkway safety conditions.

When testing makes sense.

Walkway evaluations are most effective when they are tied to specific operational events or review cycles. Common triggers include:

After an incident review.

After a slip or near-miss, objective walkway safety data supports internal investigations and defines whether changes are actually required.

After changes to surfaces.

After installing new flooring or changing cleaning products and procedures, DCOF testing confirms how the updated surfaces perform in real conditions.

Additional practical triggers include:

  • In high-traffic or wet-prone areas such as entries, kitchens, or pool decks
  • As part of proactive risk management and annual walkway safety audits
  • When leadership requests defensible slip resistance testing data

Request an on-site walkway evaluation.

Provide a few details about your facility and preferred timeframe. We will coordinate a walkway evaluation that fits your operations and the areas you want tested.

This form is specifically for scheduling DCOF slip resistance testing and walkway safety evaluation—not for general inquiries or coating quotes.

Designed around live environments.

Facilities remain operational during testing. Evaluations are scheduled around patient care, guest traffic, and business operations. Most slip resistance testing can be completed without disruption or re-routing traffic.

If treatment is later recommended, timing and return-to-service details are clearly communicated in advance so your team can plan work windows and any necessary notifications.

For healthcare, hospitality, education, and commercial facilities, testing windows are coordinated to respect visiting hours, peak check-in periods, class schedules, and service routes.

If it hasn’t been tested, it’s still an unknown.

A floor that has never undergone slip resistance testing is an assumption, not a known condition. Our role is to replace assumption with measurement: structured DCOF testing, clear documentation, and practical recommendations only where needed. The priority is clarity over speculation and documentation before intervention.

Professional walkway evaluations aligned with ANSI/NFSI standards. Documentation available for audit, insurance, and risk management review.
