What we see in Cornwall

If Bespoke Staircases in Cornwall were straightforward, there would be a stock size for it. Because the area is mainly granite fishermen's cottages, slate-hung terraces and modern coastal builds, no two openings measure quite the same. the most severe salt and wind exposure in England sets the pace of decay, and accelerated coating failure and salt crystallisation damage at glazing lines is how it shows up first. Everything we do here comes back to setting out so the rise and going work on the day, not just on paper.

Nothing goes into manufacture until a surveyor has checked each opening on site. Send what you have, even if it is only a phone photo, and we will take it from there.

Something particular to this area: Cornish exposure grades mean specification should assume worst-case wind-driven rain.

Rise, going and headroom in Cornwall

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, Cornwall

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

Verified client, Cornwall

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

Cornwall questions

Do you cover Cornwall?

Yes. We cover the whole of Cornwall including Truro, Falmouth, Newquay, St Austell and the surrounding villages. Cornish exposure grades mean specification should assume worst-case wind-driven rain. Because the most severe salt and wind exposure in England, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.

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.

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.

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.

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.
