Anti-Slip Treatments for Stone, Tile, and Concrete

Our anti-slip treatments will dramatically increase traction and improve safety on slippery floors. The slip resistance will meet or exceed recommendations by ADA/ANSI with most surfaces.

Etching - Our Etching treatment creates microscopic etches in the surface of the stone, tile, or concrete to add friction when the surface is wet. The surface will look the same to the eye and feel the same when it is dry. But the magic comes through when water and feet meet on the etched surface! With our process, we can increase the friction a little or a lot, depending on your needs.

 

Cleaning - When surfaces get dirty, they require a good cleaning. Our cleaning process cleans tile without high pressure. When contaminates embed into the tile, grout and concrete it will dull the surface. These surfaces are porous and the longer the dirt stays the deeper it goes. Contaminates can become so impacted the floor will require honing or grinding to get clean. We perform professional deep cleaning services to make them look as new as possible.

Testing - Friction is the action of one surface or object rubbing against another. There are two primary types of friction: dynamic friction and static friction. Dynamic friction is the friction between two moving surfaces or objects. Static friction is the friction between two objects that are not moving. The higher the dynamic or static number the lower the probability of slipping. We have NFSI approved SCOF and DCOF meters in shop ready to test your floors. And we can also perform a floor audit to determine your liability, if any.

The Slip Solutions of Houston Process

Consultation

Consultation

In this process step we discuss your surface with you, what you are needing, and the products we offer to remedy the hazard; then set up a time to meet with you.

Identification

Identification

In this process step we will visit the location to survey the surface to be treated and answer your questions, then provide a quote, all in a timeframe that meets your schedule.

Treatment

Treatment

In this process step we will be onsite at the designated time and apply our non-slip solution to your surfaces. Most applications require limited or no cure time, so your surface will be ready when you are!

Testing

Testing

In this process step we will retest the surface to establish a new and safer COF (coefficient of friction) for your records. Upon completion we also provide a written 2 year warranty on all standard applications.
