Key details to confirm early

The opening, rise, going, landing space, and surrounding hallway finish all affect the final staircase specification.

  • Check whether the layout is staying the same or changing.
  • Decide between traditional timber, glass details, or a mixed finish.
  • Plan landing balustrades and trim at the same time.

Why access matters

Staircase work affects movement through the home, so timing, access, and temporary disruption should be discussed before work starts.

What helps with a quote

Photos, rough measurements, layout notes, and any drawings or renovation plans help shape the first conversation.
