Bespoke staircases in Westbury-on-Trym
Handrails and Balustrades in Westbury-on-Trym rewards patience at the setting-out stage. Because the area is mainly Georgian Clifton terraces, Victorian bay-fronted streets and converted warehouses, no two openings measure quite the same. 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. Everything we do here comes back to continuous handrails whose wreaths and volutes flow without a visible break.
Nothing goes into manufacture until a surveyor has checked each opening on site. Give us the basics and you will have a written figure, not a range that moves later.
Bear in mind for this area: Clifton's Georgian stock frequently requires exact sash box replication.

Learn more →Rise, going and headroom in Westbury-on-Trym
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.”

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.
Can you price from drawings?
Yes. Send a drawing set or a schedule and we will price against it. If anything is ambiguous we will query it before quoting rather than assume and reprice later.
Will the finish need maintaining?
A factory-applied microporous finish typically needs inspection every three to five years, sooner on exposed coastal elevations. Maintaining it is far cheaper than letting a coating fail and the timber take up water.
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.
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.
