Bespoke staircases in Daventry

If you are looking at Handrails and Balustrades in Daventry, the timber is only half the decision. Property here runs to ironstone cottages, boot-and-shoe terraces and new town expansion housing, and each of those brings its own set of dimensions. The other factor is dry inland conditions with limited coastal influence, which is why seasonal shrinkage and glazing bead loosening on older painted units is the most common reason people call us. What you are paying for is continuous handrails whose wreaths and volutes flow without a visible break.

We would rather spend an hour surveying than a week correcting. Get in touch and we will be straight with you about cost and timescale.

One local point to factor in: ironstone reveals absorb water and hold it against frames in wet spells.

Rise, going and headroom in Daventry

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, Northamptonshire

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

Verified client, Northamptonshire

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

Daventry questions

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
