Bespoke staircases in Selsey
Loft Conversion Stairs around Selsey is a different job from one street to the next. Local property is overwhelmingly Sussex flint cottages, Regency seafront terraces and postwar new town housing, which is why we never quote from a catalogue. The exposure here is strong coastal exposure with salt spray inland of the shoreline, which is exactly the condition that causes finish erosion on seaward elevations within a few years of coating. The detail we will not compromise on is fitting a compliant flight into an opening that barely allows one.
We would rather spend an hour surveying than a week correcting. Photographs and approximate sizes are all we need to start.
Bear in mind for this area: seafront properties need a shorter recoating cycle than inland equivalents.

Learn more →Rise, going and headroom in Selsey
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.”
Verified client, West SussexSelsey questions
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
