Bespoke staircases in Washington
What makes Staircase Renovation work in Washington is usually invisible once it is finished. You will find mostly Tyneside flats, Georgian Grainger Town frontages and coastal terraces in this area, and it moves as it ages. With cold North Sea exposure with high sustained wind in the mix, wind-driven rain penetration and rapid coating loss on seaward elevations is a question of when rather than whether. The detail we will not compromise on is curing movement and squeak rather than just covering it over.
We survey before anything is cut, so the schedule reflects the opening as built rather than as drawn. We will price it properly in writing, and we will tell you if it is not worth doing.
Local factor worth flagging early: Tyneside flat stock has a distinctive paired-door detail worth replicating exactly.

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