Bespoke staircases in Aberdare
People come to us about Staircase Renovation in Aberdare once the cheap option has already failed. Property here runs to valleys terraces, Victorian maritime villas and civic Portland stone frontages, and each of those brings its own set of dimensions. very high rainfall with strong Atlantic and Bristol Channel exposure sets the pace of decay, and prolonged wetting decay and finish failure on valley-facing elevations is how it shows up first. The detail we will not compromise on is curing movement and squeak rather than just covering it over.
Every job is measured on site first, because drawn sizes and built sizes are seldom the same. Send what you have, even if it is only a phone photo, and we will take it from there.
One thing that catches people out here: valleys terraces share a repeating bay and sash format that suits batch manufacture.

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

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.
Can you match an existing profile?
Yes. If you can supply a section, a photograph with a rule in shot, or an old unit, we can replicate the profile. For conservation work this is usually the condition the planning officer will apply.
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.
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 if the opening is out of square?
Most older openings are. The survey records the actual dimensions at several points and the unit is manufactured to suit, which is the main reason we survey rather than work from the sizes given over the phone.
