Bespoke staircases in Glastonbury

The hard part of Staircase Parts in Glastonbury is not the making, it is the measuring. You will find mostly Bath stone Georgian terraces, Levels farmhouses and Victorian seaside stock in this area, and it moves as it ages. The exposure here is very high rainfall with standing water across the Levels, which is exactly the condition that causes prolonged saturation causing frame distortion and sash binding. Where we put the effort is matched components for anyone doing their own installation.

A surveyor visits first and records the real dimensions, at several points on each opening. Send what you have, even if it is only a phone photo, and we will take it from there.

Local factor worth flagging early: Bath's World Heritage status makes joinery detail subject to close scrutiny.

What we cover locally

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

Rise, going and headroom in Glastonbury

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, Somerset

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

Verified client, Somerset

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

Glastonbury questions

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.

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.

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 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.
