Bespoke staircases in Ludgershall

If Cut String Staircases in Ludgershall were straightforward, there would be a stock size for it. Because the area is mainly chalk-downland cob and thatch, Bath stone terraces and garrison housing, no two openings measure quite the same. What accelerates it is exposed downland wind with driving rain, and wind-driven water forced past worn weatherseals follows sooner than owners expect. The part that matters is the cut string profile, where any inaccuracy shows immediately.

The site visit comes first, because assumptions made in an office get paid for on site. We will price it properly in writing, and we will tell you if it is not worth doing.

Something particular to this area: cob and thatch properties need breathable finishes rather than film-forming coatings.

What we cover locally

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

Rise, going and headroom in Ludgershall

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, Wiltshire

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

Verified client, Wiltshire

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

Ludgershall questions

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.

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 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.

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.

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.
