Bespoke staircases in Thame
Getting Bespoke Staircases right in Thame depends on detail that a price list cannot capture. You are mostly dealing with Cotswold stone cottages, Georgian college-town terraces and new-build fringe estates around here, so openings vary more than people expect. With river-valley mist and prolonged autumn damp in the mix, rot behind stone reveals where water tracks in at the joint is a question of when rather than whether. The value is in setting out so the rise and going work on the day, not just on paper, not in the timber bill.
We survey before anything is cut, so the schedule reflects the opening as built rather than as drawn. Send what you have, even if it is only a phone photo, and we will take it from there.
One local point to factor in: listed and curtilage-listed properties are unusually common in the historic centres.

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

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 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 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.
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.
What if the opening is out of square?
Most older openings are. The survey records the actual dimensions at several points and the unit is manufactured to suit, which is the main reason we survey rather than work from the sizes given over the phone.
