Bespoke staircases in Gerrards Cross
What makes Bespoke Staircases work in Gerrards Cross is usually invisible once it is finished. Local stock is dominated by Chiltern brick-and-flint cottages alongside large modern estates, which sets the sizes and profiles we work to. The exposure here is chalk-valley damp with cold air pooling overnight, which is exactly the condition that causes persistent condensation staining and cill rot on older single-glazed units. The detail we will not compromise on is setting out so the rise and going work on the day, not just on paper.
Nothing is ordered until someone has stood in front of the opening with a tape. Rough dimensions and a couple of photographs are enough for us to price it properly.
One local point to factor in: AONB designation across much of the county tightens external alteration consent.

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

How do you handle glazing?
Standard double glazed units for most work, and slim-cavity units where a conservation officer has restricted sightlines. Single glazing with putty lines is available where the consent requires it.
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.
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.
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 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.
