What we see in Scotland Central Belt
There is no standard version of Bespoke Staircases in Scotland Central Belt, which is rather the point. Given the sandstone tenements, Georgian New Town terraces and post-war housing schemes that dominates locally, standard sizes are the exception not the rule. Set against cold wet winters with strong westerly exposure, most joinery here eventually shows sash and case failure in tenement stock and cill decay at stone junctions. The detail we will not compromise on is setting out so the rise and going work on the day, not just on paper.
The measuring is done by the people responsible for the fit, which concentrates the mind. Get in touch and we will be straight with you about cost and timescale.
A local consideration we always raise: Scottish sash and case construction differs from English box sash and needs matching.

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

Do you cover Scotland Central Belt?
Yes. We cover the whole of Scotland Central Belt including Glasgow, Edinburgh, Stirling, Falkirk and the surrounding villages. Scottish sash and case construction differs from English box sash and needs matching. Because cold wet winters with strong westerly exposure, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
Do you take a deposit?
Not before the measured survey. A deposit is only requested once the survey is complete and you have approved the final schedule and price.
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.
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.
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.
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.
