Cut String Staircases across Somerset
There is no standard version of Cut String Staircases in Somerset, which is rather the point. Most of what we survey locally is Bath stone Georgian terraces, Levels farmhouses and Victorian seaside stock, which is not built to any modern module. Then there is very high rainfall with standing water across the Levels, which reliably produces prolonged saturation causing frame distortion and sash binding given enough seasons. The detail we will not compromise on is the cut string profile, where any inaccuracy shows immediately.
Nothing is ordered until someone has stood in front of the opening with a tape. Tell us the problem rather than the solution and we will advise on both.
Worth knowing locally: Bath's World Heritage status makes joinery detail subject to close scrutiny.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover Somerset?
Yes. We cover the whole of Somerset including Bath, Taunton, Yeovil, Bridgwater and the surrounding villages. Bath's World Heritage status makes joinery detail subject to close scrutiny. Because very high rainfall with standing water across the Levels, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
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.
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 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 match an existing profile?
Yes. If you can supply a section, a photograph with a rule in shot, or an old unit, we can replicate the profile. For conservation work this is usually the condition the planning officer will apply.
