Bespoke staircases in Torpoint
Cantilever Staircases across Torpoint tends to be driven by the condition of what is already there. Around here it is granite fishermen's cottages, slate-hung terraces and modern coastal builds, and that alone rules out anything bought by the pallet. With the most severe salt and wind exposure in England in the mix, accelerated coating failure and salt crystallisation damage at glazing lines is a question of when rather than whether. Our focus on this is the hidden steelwork that makes a floating tread genuinely safe.
We would rather spend an hour surveying than a week correcting. Rough dimensions and a couple of photographs are enough for us to price it properly.
Local factor worth flagging early: Cornish exposure grades mean specification should assume worst-case wind-driven rain.

Learn more →Rise, going and headroom in Torpoint
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.”

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.
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.
Can you work on a listed building?
Yes, and a significant share of our work is listed or conservation area. We can supply drawings and section details to support a listed building consent or planning application, though the consent itself remains the owner's responsibility.
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 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.
