Bespoke staircases in Haverhill

The Staircase Renovation we make for Haverhill is set out from a survey, not a size chart. You will find mostly colour-washed timber-framed cottages, wool-town merchant houses and coastal stock in this area, and it moves as it ages. dry easterly climate with strong coastal salt exposure sets the pace of decay, and lime-render and timber junction failure where movement opens the seal is how it shows up first. What you are paying for is curing movement and squeak rather than just covering it over.

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 thing that catches people out here: Lavenham-style timber framing needs specialist scribed repair, not replacement.

Rise, going and headroom in Haverhill

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, Suffolk

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

Verified client, Suffolk

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

Haverhill 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.

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.

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 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.

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.
