Bespoke staircases in Princes Risborough

Cut String Staircases in Princes Risborough is rarely a catalogue job. With Chiltern brick-and-flint cottages alongside large modern estates making up much of the area, off-the-shelf sizes rarely line up. The other factor is chalk-valley damp with cold air pooling overnight, which is why persistent condensation staining and cill rot on older single-glazed units is the most common reason people call us. The detail we will not compromise on is the cut string profile, where any inaccuracy shows immediately.

We would rather spend an hour surveying than a week correcting. Ask us for a figure and you will get one, with the lead time stated alongside it.

One local point to factor in: AONB designation across much of the county tightens external alteration consent.

Rise, going and headroom in Princes Risborough

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.”

Princes Risborough questions

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.

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.

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.

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.

Is the timber certified?

All our stock is FSC certified and chain-of-custody documentation is supplied with the order, which most main contractors and specifiers now require for their records.
