Bespoke staircases in Anlaby

The hard part of Handrails and Balustrades in Anlaby is not the making, it is the measuring. You will find mostly Georgian Beverley stock, Hull dockland terraces and Wolds estate cottages in this area, and it moves as it ages. Locally you are contending with exposed North Sea wind with low rainfall but high wind-chill, so wind-driven rain penetration and premature seal failure on exposed elevations is the fault we are called out to. What we concentrate on is continuous handrails whose wreaths and volutes flow without a visible break.

Every job is measured on site first, because drawn sizes and built sizes are seldom the same. Send what you have, even if it is only a phone photo, and we will take it from there.

Something particular to this area: Humber estuary properties see unusually high sustained wind loading.

Rise, going and headroom in Anlaby

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 Yorkshire

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

Verified client, East Yorkshire

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

Anlaby questions

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
