Bespoke staircases in Henleaze
Cut String Staircases is one of those jobs in Henleaze where the survey decides everything. The housing here is largely Georgian Clifton terraces, Victorian bay-fronted streets and converted warehouses, and that shapes what will actually fit. The exposure here is mild wet westerly weather with limited hard frost, which is exactly the condition that causes moss and algae growth followed by paint blistering on shaded elevations. Where we put the effort is the cut string profile, where any inaccuracy shows immediately.
Each opening is recorded individually, since a terrace of identical houses rarely is. A quick call or a photograph of the opening is usually enough to get you a price.
Bear in mind for this area: Clifton's Georgian stock frequently requires exact sash box replication.

Learn more →Rise, going and headroom in Henleaze
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, Bristol“Dry-assembled in the workshop first, so installation day was genuinely uneventful.”
Verified client, Bristol“No squeaks at all a year on, which was the whole reason we replaced the old one.”

Can you match an existing profile?
Yes. If you can supply a section, a photograph with a rule in shot, or an old unit, we can replicate the profile. For conservation work this is usually the condition the planning officer will apply.
Do you take a deposit?
Not before the measured survey. A deposit is only requested once the survey is complete and you have approved the final schedule and price.
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.
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.
What guarantee do you provide?
Ten years on workmanship, covering manufacture and the factory-applied finish. Where we install, the installation is covered too. It is issued in writing with the handover paperwork.
