About This Service
Stairs and ramps carry the highest slip and fall risk of any pedestrian surface. The combination of incline, step edge and wet conditions creates significantly elevated danger. SlipFix treats stair treads, ramp surfaces and landing zones to improve slip resistance in compliance with AS 4586, AS 4663 and AS 1428.1 accessibility requirements — and the NCC provisions that apply to new and existing buildings.

Frequently Asked Questions
New buildings must comply with NCC requirements referencing AS 4586. Existing buildings are assessed against AS 4663. Accessible paths must also meet AS 1428.1. SlipFix treatments address all relevant standards.
Yes. We can apply targeted treatment to stair nosings and leading edges where this is the primary area of slip risk.
Most stair treatments are completed in a single visit. Stairs can typically be returned to use within a few hours of treatment.
