What we see in Leicestershire
The Bespoke Staircases we make for Leicestershire is set out from a survey, not a size chart. Around here it is hosiery-era terraces, ironstone villages and large modern estates, and that alone rules out anything bought by the pallet. dry inland climate with sharp seasonal swings is the local complication, and movement cracking and bead shrinkage from repeated wet-dry cycling is what it eventually causes. In practice that means setting out so the rise and going work on the day, not just on paper.
Every job is measured on site first, because drawn sizes and built sizes are seldom the same. A quick call or a photograph of the opening is usually enough to get you a price.
Worth knowing locally: ironstone villages have distinctive mullion proportions worth matching.

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

Do you cover Leicestershire?
Yes. We cover the whole of Leicestershire including Leicester, Loughborough, Hinckley, Melton Mowbray and the surrounding villages. Ironstone villages have distinctive mullion proportions worth matching. Because dry inland climate with sharp seasonal swings, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
How long does a typical order take?
Most made-to-size orders run six to ten weeks from survey to delivery. Conservation and heavily detailed work can take longer, and we confirm the lead time in writing at quotation rather than leaving it open.
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.
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 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.
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.
