Bespoke staircases in Bideford

The Staircase Parts we make for Bideford is set out from a survey, not a size chart. Because the area is mainly cob and thatch, Regency seaside terraces and Dartmoor granite cottages, no two openings measure quite the same. With the wettest large county in England with severe Atlantic exposure in the mix, sustained rot in cob-embedded frames and moor-exposed openings is a question of when rather than whether. Everything we do here comes back to matched components for anyone doing their own installation.

Every job is measured on site first, because drawn sizes and built sizes are seldom the same. Ask us for a figure and you will get one, with the lead time stated alongside it.

Local factor worth flagging early: cob walls move seasonally, so frames need tolerance built into the fixing detail.

Rise, going and headroom in Bideford

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, Devon

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

Verified client, Devon

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

Bideford questions

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.

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 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.

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.

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.
