Bespoke staircases in Bakewell
Half the Handrails and Balustrades problems we fix in Bakewell started as a sizing assumption. You will find mostly Peak District gritstone cottages, mill housing and Georgian spa stock in this area, and it moves as it ages. With upland cold with heavy snow loading and hard frost in the mix, frost heave damage and swelling on unbalanced-finish joinery is a question of when rather than whether. Where we put the effort is continuous handrails whose wreaths and volutes flow without a visible break.
We survey before anything is cut, so the schedule reflects the opening as built rather than as drawn. Ask us for a figure and you will get one, with the lead time stated alongside it.
A local consideration we always raise: Peak Park properties face some of the tightest external alteration controls in England.

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

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.
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.
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.
Will the finish need maintaining?
A factory-applied microporous finish typically needs inspection every three to five years, sooner on exposed coastal elevations. Maintaining it is far cheaper than letting a coating fail and the timber take up water.
