Bespoke staircases in Leominster

If you are looking at Cut String Staircases in Leominster, the timber is only half the decision. The building stock is black-and-white villages, cider-farm outbuildings and rural stone cottages, so we expect variation before we ever pick up a tape. The weather does the rest: wet westerly weather and long damp winters here, and sustained wetting decay at ground-contact and threshold level as the predictable result. The part that matters is the cut string profile, where any inaccuracy shows immediately.

Each opening is recorded individually, since a terrace of identical houses rarely is. Photographs and approximate sizes are all we need to start.

Worth knowing locally: rural properties often need full frame renewal rather than piecemeal repair.

Rise, going and headroom in Leominster

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, Herefordshire

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

Verified client, Herefordshire

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

Leominster questions

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.

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 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.

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.

Is the timber certified?

All our stock is FSC certified and chain-of-custody documentation is supplied with the order, which most main contractors and specifiers now require for their records.
