Custom Staircases
Staircases can be made from oak, pine, ash or a combination of timber and painted components. Traditional closed-string designs, open layouts and glass balustrades each have different structural and fitting requirements.
An existing staircase can often be updated without complete replacement by changing the newel posts, handrails, spindles or balustrade. Nick will assess the current structure and discuss the materials and work needed before recommending an approach.
FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What materials can be used for a new bespoke staircase?
Staircases are commonly made from hardwood, softwood or a combination of timber and painted components. Glass balustrades and contrasting treads or risers may also suit some homes. The structure, style and budget will guide the final specification.
What is a ‘floating’ or ‘cantilever’ staircase?
A cantilever staircase has treads supported from one side so that they appear to project from the wall. It is a specialist structural design rather than a cosmetic alteration, and usually needs input from an engineer as well as careful planning around the supporting wall.
How long does a staircase renovation or installation take?
A balustrade update is usually much less involved than a complete new staircase. Access, structural work, materials and finishing all affect the programme. Nick will give you an estimated timescale once the site and the proposed design have been assessed.
