Bespoke staircases in Holt

Cut String Staircases in Holt is rarely a catalogue job. The housing here is largely flint and pantile cottages, Georgian merchant houses and coastal resort stock, and that shapes what will actually fit. The other factor is exposed North Sea easterlies with salt-laden wind, which is why salt damage and finish erosion on east-facing coastal elevations is the most common reason people call us. The value is in the cut string profile, where any inaccuracy shows immediately, not in the timber bill.

We check on site before committing anything to the saw, and we query what does not add up. Ask us for a figure and you will get one, with the lead time stated alongside it.

A local consideration we always raise: flint walls give minimal reveal, so weathering detail carries the whole load.

What we cover locally

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

Rise, going and headroom in Holt

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, Norfolk

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

Verified client, Norfolk

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

Holt questions

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.

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.
