Anti-slip stair nosings in Bromley
A public stair fall claim in Bromley typically hangs on two things: PTV reading and visual contrast at the nosing. Both are fixed by the right nosing profile. We supply and fit aluminium carriers with anti-slip inserts (PVC, rubber or photoluminescent) that pass a pendulum test and meet the 30-point luminance contrast rule.

- Subfloor
