What we see in West Sussex

We take a fair volume of Bespoke Staircases work across West Sussex, and almost none of it repeats. You are mostly dealing with Sussex flint cottages, Regency seafront terraces and postwar new town housing around here, so openings vary more than people expect. strong coastal exposure with salt spray inland of the shoreline sets the pace of decay, and finish erosion on seaward elevations within a few years of coating is how it shows up first. The part that matters is setting out so the rise and going work on the day, not just on paper.

Nothing goes into manufacture until a surveyor has checked each opening on site. Tell us what you are working with and we will put a fixed figure in writing.

Local factor worth flagging early: seafront properties need a shorter recoating cycle than inland equivalents.

Rise, going and headroom in West Sussex

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, West Sussex

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

Verified client, West Sussex

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

West Sussex questions

Do you cover West Sussex?

Yes. We cover the whole of West Sussex including Crawley, Worthing, Horsham, Bognor Regis and the surrounding villages. Seafront properties need a shorter recoating cycle than inland equivalents. Because strong coastal exposure with salt spray inland of the shoreline, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.

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 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.

Will the finish need maintaining?

A factory-applied microporous finish typically needs inspection every three to five years, sooner on exposed coastal elevations. Maintaining it is far cheaper than letting a coating fail and the timber take up water.

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.

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.
