Bespoke staircases in St Neots

Staircase Renovation in St Neots rewards patience at the setting-out stage. Most of what we survey locally is college-town Georgian stock, fenland brick farmhouses and rapid new-build growth, which is not built to any modern module. The other factor is the driest region in the UK with exposed fen wind, which is why shrinkage and joint opening rather than rot in most inland stock is the most common reason people call us. Everything we do here comes back to curing movement and squeak rather than just covering it over.

Manufacture only starts once the survey figures are agreed with you in writing. We will price it properly in writing, and we will tell you if it is not worth doing.

One thing that catches people out here: college and listed stock in Cambridge demands exact historic replication.

What we cover locally

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

Rise, going and headroom in St Neots

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.”

St Neots 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
