Bespoke staircases in Radcliffe
If you are looking at Handrails and Balustrades in Radcliffe, the timber is only half the decision. Given the mill-era terraces, interwar semis and large commercial and retail frontages that dominates locally, standard sizes are the exception not the rule. What accelerates it is persistently high rainfall with limited drying windows, and coating failure and rot on north-facing elevations that rarely dry out follows sooner than owners expect. In practice that means continuous handrails whose wreaths and volutes flow without a visible break.
Manufacture only starts once the survey figures are agreed with you in writing. One call is usually enough for us to tell you roughly where the price will land.
Worth knowing locally: high commercial density supports substantial shopfitting and contract joinery demand.

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

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.
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 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.
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.
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.
