Cut String Staircases across Scotland Central Belt
Cut String Staircases is one of those jobs in Scotland Central Belt where the survey decides everything. Because the area is mainly sandstone tenements, Georgian New Town terraces and post-war housing schemes, no two openings measure quite the same. The weather does the rest: cold wet winters with strong westerly exposure here, and sash and case failure in tenement stock and cill decay at stone junctions as the predictable result. What we concentrate on is the cut string profile, where any inaccuracy shows immediately.
We would rather spend an hour surveying than a week correcting. A quick call or a photograph of the opening is usually enough to get you a price.
Local factor worth flagging early: Scottish sash and case construction differs from English box sash and needs matching.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover Scotland Central Belt?
Yes. We cover the whole of Scotland Central Belt including Glasgow, Edinburgh, Stirling, Falkirk and the surrounding villages. Scottish sash and case construction differs from English box sash and needs matching. Because cold wet winters with strong westerly exposure, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
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.
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.
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.
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.
