Bespoke staircases in Datchet
If Bespoke Staircases in Datchet were straightforward, there would be a stock size for it. The building stock is Thames-side villas, Victorian terraces and dense 1980s commercial fit-out stock, so we expect variation before we ever pick up a tape. The exposure here is river humidity and localised flood exposure, which is exactly the condition that causes swelling and binding on ground-floor doors after flood or high water table events. What we concentrate on is setting out so the rise and going work on the day, not just on paper.
The measuring is done by the people responsible for the fit, which concentrates the mind. Photographs and approximate sizes are all we need to start.
Something particular to this area: flood-zone properties benefit from raised thresholds and marine-grade fixings.

Learn more →Rise, going and headroom in Datchet
Three numbers decide whether a staircase is comfortable or awkward, and they are the first things we measure.
Rise
Maximum 220mm per step for a private stair under Part K. Consistent to within 5mm across the whole flight, because the foot notices what the eye does not.
Going
Minimum 220mm. Rise and going together must satisfy the pitch rule, which is why a flight cannot simply be shortened to fit a smaller opening.
Headroom
2m measured vertically from the pitch line. This is the constraint that most often forces a winder instead of a straight flight.
What clients tell us
Feedback collected directly from completed projects. Full written references are available on request before you commit.
“The headroom was tight and they redesigned the winder rather than telling us it could not be done.”
Verified client, Berkshire“Dry-assembled in the workshop first, so installation day was genuinely uneventful.”
Verified client, Berkshire“No squeaks at all a year on, which was the whole reason we replaced the old one.”

How long does a typical order take?
Most made-to-size orders run six to ten weeks from survey to delivery. Conservation and heavily detailed work can take longer, and we confirm the lead time in writing at quotation rather than leaving it open.
Do you deliver nationwide?
Yes, we deliver across England, Wales and Scotland. Delivery is priced into the quotation so there is no separate charge added later.
Can you work on a listed building?
Yes, and a significant share of our work is listed or conservation area. We can supply drawings and section details to support a listed building consent or planning application, though the consent itself remains the owner's responsibility.
Do you fit, or supply only?
Both. Supply-only is common for trade and contractor clients. For private clients we usually recommend supply and fit, because responsibility for the fit and the finish then sits in one place.
Do you work in hardwood or softwood?
Both. Engineered hardwood is the default where movement or exposure is a concern, and slow-grown softwood is often the better value choice for painted work in sheltered positions. We will tell you which we would specify and why.
