Tiles

Lisa has a wealth of experience establishing the causes of product or installation failure through on-site tile inspections and investigations. The inspections and investigations cover all aspects of specification, workmanship and on-site performance. Lisa's knowledge covers all types of installation, including: internal and external, wall and floor, domestic and commercial. She is also a member of the BSI, European (CEN) and world (ISO) standards committees.

Slip Resistance

As an expert of internal and external on-site slip resistance testing and consultancy, Lisa conducts investigations post-slip incidents, measures slip values after installation to ensure the values remain unchanged once in-situ, appraises floor cleaning/maintenance regimes and the suitability of flooring according to specific environments.

Lisa was a member of the recent SlipStd consortium tasked with steering a European funded project examining new and novel methods for characterising the slip potential of surfaces.
