Bespoke staircases in Waltham Forest

The Cantilever Staircases we make for Waltham Forest is set out from a survey, not a size chart. Property here runs to Victorian and Edwardian terraces, mansion blocks and post-war infill, and each of those brings its own set of dimensions. The weather does the rest: high pollution load and sheltered urban humidity here, and paint failure on south-facing sashes and rot at the bottom rail as the predictable result. What we concentrate on is the hidden steelwork that makes a floating tread genuinely safe.

We check on site before committing anything to the saw, and we query what does not add up. Photographs and approximate sizes are all we need to start.

Something particular to this area: large numbers of properties sit in conservation areas with like-for-like replacement conditions.

What we cover locally

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

Rise, going and headroom in Waltham Forest

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, Greater London

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

Verified client, Greater London

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

Waltham Forest questions

What if the opening is out of square?

Most older openings are. The survey records the actual dimensions at several points and the unit is manufactured to suit, which is the main reason we survey rather than work from the sizes given over the phone.

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.

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.

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.

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.
