Bespoke staircases in Soham

The Staircase Renovation we make for Soham is set out from a survey, not a size chart. With college-town Georgian stock, fenland brick farmhouses and rapid new-build growth making up much of the area, off-the-shelf sizes rarely line up. With the driest region in the UK with exposed fen wind in the mix, shrinkage and joint opening rather than rot in most inland stock is a question of when rather than whether. What you are paying for is curing movement and squeak rather than just covering it over.

Nothing goes into manufacture until a surveyor has checked each opening on site. Tell us the problem rather than the solution and we will advise on both.

A local consideration we always raise: college and listed stock in Cambridge demands exact historic replication.

What we cover locally

Survey visits in Soham are usually booked within a week. There is no charge for the survey and no obligation to proceed.

Rise, going and headroom in Soham

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, Cambridgeshire

“Dry-assembled in the workshop first, so installation day was genuinely uneventful.”

Verified client, Cambridgeshire

“No squeaks at all a year on, which was the whole reason we replaced the old one.”

Soham questions

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.

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 deliver nationwide?

Yes, we deliver across England, Wales and Scotland. Delivery is priced into the quotation so there is no separate charge added later.

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.

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.
