County-wide coverage · Midlands
Weather profile. Midlands weather drives moderate but sustained entrance-zone moisture exposure.
Local-authority EHO context. Each West Midlands borough (Birmingham CC, Coventry CC, Solihull MBC, Wolverhampton CC, Walsall MBC, Sandwell MBC, Dudley MBC) handles independent EHO oversight.
Centres in West Midlands run the typical UK retail surface vocabulary — polished porcelain malls, vinyl food courts, polished concrete car-park cores, and granite public realm. West Midlands's regional context — particularly its weather profile and council-level EHO regime — shapes how the testing scope and frequency are calibrated.
Polished porcelain & terrazzo concourses — the central spine of most West Midlands centres. Performs well dry but can drop sharply in wet PTV depending on cleaning chemistry.
Entrance lobbies & rotunda transitions — entrance-mat run-off zones are the highest-incident slip area in most centres.
Food court vinyl & multi-tenant transitions — beverage and grease carry-out from food courts onto adjacent mall surfaces creates wet-condition exposure most generic testing scope misses.
Multi-storey car park cores & lift lobbies — the principal wet-shoe carry-in points for out-of-town centres.
External granite paving, stone setts & terraces — open-air sections face continuous weather exposure that warrants quarterly inspection.
