Bespoke staircases in Forest Row

Getting Cut String Staircases right in Forest Row depends on detail that a price list cannot capture. Most of what we survey locally is Regency bows and bays, weatherboarded cottages and cliff-top villas, which is not built to any modern module. severe salt exposure combined with strong UV on south-facing frontages sets the pace of decay, and UV breakdown of clear finishes and rapid degradation of putty lines is how it shows up first. The part that matters is the cut string profile, where any inaccuracy shows immediately.

The measuring is done by the people responsible for the fit, which concentrates the mind. Give us the basics and you will have a written figure, not a range that moves later.

One local point to factor in: Regency bow windows demand curved-glass and matched-profile joinery.

What we cover locally

Survey visits in Forest Row are usually booked within a week. There is no charge for the survey and no obligation to proceed.

Rise, going and headroom in Forest Row

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, East Sussex

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

Verified client, East Sussex

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

Forest Row questions

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 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.

Can you match an existing profile?

Yes. If you can supply a section, a photograph with a rule in shot, or an old unit, we can replicate the profile. For conservation work this is usually the condition the planning officer will apply.

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.

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.
