Bespoke staircases in Workington
If you are looking at Staircase Renovation in Workington, the timber is only half the decision. Because the area is mainly Lakeland slate cottages, Georgian Carlisle stock and coastal industrial terraces, no two openings measure quite the same. The weather does the rest: the highest rainfall in England with severe upland exposure here, and sustained saturation decay and finish failure within short recoating cycles as the predictable result. Our focus on this is curing movement and squeak rather than just covering it over.
Nothing is ordered until someone has stood in front of the opening with a tape. Rough dimensions and a couple of photographs are enough for us to price it properly.
Bear in mind for this area: Lake District National Park controls window style closely across the central valleys.

Learn more →Rise, going and headroom in Workington
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, Cumbria“Dry-assembled in the workshop first, so installation day was genuinely uneventful.”
Verified client, Cumbria“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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
