What this involves

What we mean by a new staircase

A new staircase means the existing one comes out and a replacement goes in, built to fit your stairwell exactly rather than a stock flight adjusted to squeeze into the gap. We measure the opening, agree the design with you, whether that is a straight flight, a winder, or something with a landing, and build it in a timber agreed before anything is ordered. It suits a renovation where the stairs are being reconfigured, a period property where the original has failed, or a staircase that simply no longer matches the rest of the house.

  • Measured and designed around your stairwell, not a standard size forced to fit
  • Built in timber agreed with you before work starts, never substituted without asking
  • The carpenter who measures up your stairwell is the one who fits it, start to finish

What working with us on a new staircase looks like

Three stages, from the first measure to the finished job.

New staircase, renovation, or new handrails and spindles?

The three staircase services on this site solve different problems. This comparison is meant to help you land on the right page, even if that is not this one.

What is included as standard

The detail we agree before the first tread is cut.

Design agreed before we cut anything

Pen sketches, drawings, or AI-generated visuals, whichever works best for you, before anything is built.

Materials we actually trust

We would rather not do the job than use the wrong materials for it, and we will say so before agreeing a spec rather than after.

The old staircase removed

Taken out as part of the job before the new staircase goes in.

Dust extraction throughout

Running for the whole job, with floors and doorways protected while work is on.

Alex, start to finish

You deal with Alex from the first visit to the finished job, with 8 years in the trade behind the work.

The site tidied at the end of every day

Left tidier than we found it, every day the job runs, not just at the end.

Pricing

What a new staircase costs

Every staircase is priced after a visit

The stairwell, the design and the timber you choose all change what a staircase costs, so a figure given before a site visit would not survive contact with your actual stairs. We would rather look first and quote once.

  • Site visits (normally more than one), then one written quote
  • The design and materials agreed before the price is fixed

Every staircase is different, so every price is worked out after a visit rather than taken from a standard list.

Sincerely recommend this company it's very refreshing to see a trade person who is proud of his craftsmanship. He is really an artist did not leave a spec of dust Thank you Alex

Nick F.

Alex is fantastic, really diligent and a great guy to have help with a project. He has just laid a solid wooden floor for me. It looks brilliant. The trouble is I'm not sure it's such a great idea to give him a great review as it will make him even more popular and in demand

John B.

What people ask before a staircase job starts

Answered here, so nothing is a surprise on the day.

  • Will the rest of the house be protected while the old staircase comes out?

    Floors, doorways and carpets are protected before we start, and dust extraction runs for the whole job, not just the messy parts.

  • What if something is not right once it is finished?

    If something is not right after we have finished, we come back and put it right.

Everything else you need to know about a new staircase

The cost of a new staircase is driven by what is actually involved: the size and shape of the stairwell, whether the layout is changing, the timber specified, and how much of the surrounding floor, wall or ceiling has to be opened up to fit it. A straight flight replaced like for like is a different job from a staircase moved to change the layout of a floor, which is why a bespoke staircase is priced after a visit rather than from a standard list.

Building regulations set minimum requirements for rise, going and headroom on a staircase, and an older house does not always meet them as built. Staircase installation in a period property often means working within an opening that was never designed to current standards, which is part of what a survey is for: to agree, before anything is ordered, whether the existing opening works as it is or needs adjusting.

The starting point is always the same: a site visit, a design agreed with you, and a written quote before anything is ordered.

New staircases: questions we get asked

Answered plainly, in the order people actually ask.

How much does a new staircase cost?

It depends on what is actually involved: the size of the stairwell, whether the layout is changing, and the timber you choose. That is why we quote after a visit rather than from a price list, so the figure reflects your actual staircase rather than an average one. Get in touch and we will arrange a visit.

Can you fit a new staircase without changing the layout of the house?

That depends on your opening, which is what the site visit and measure are for. The design is agreed with you before anything is cut.

What is the difference between a new staircase and a staircase renovation?

A new staircase replaces the structure, so it suits a layout change or one that has failed. A renovation keeps the structure and changes the surface, treads, risers or cladding, which suits a staircase that is sound but looks tired.

Do you fit staircases in older houses?

We survey the opening before we quote. Older properties can have openings that were not built to current standards, so any adjustment needed is agreed before the design is fixed, not discovered on the day.
