A FEW COMMON QUESTIONS ANSWERED
Over the years, we have been asked many questions from our customers when fitting staircases. Here are just a few of the most common questions.
If you do have any further questions, that are not covered here, please don't hesitate to contact us, where we will do our best to help you.
IS IT POSSIBLE TO REMOVE EXISTING NEWEL POSTS?
Most staircase newel posts can be replaced giving the staircase a completely new appearance. Where decorations and other factors come into the equation, we have some clever options to be able to offer you to give your staircase the look you want. We will be able to discuss these more during the initial consultation.
CAN YOU CHANGE THE STRINGS?
The strings are a main structural component of a staircase and cannot be changed, without removing the entire staircase. However, the option of Cladding the strings with Oak to give the appearance of a new staircase is an option. This is a well favoured option as this is gives the appearance of new strings, without the lengthy and messy work replacing the whole stairs. During this process we can also off the option of inbuilt LED string lights on one or both sides to give your staircase a unique stand out feature.
CAN YOU FIT A BULLNOSE STEP TO AN EXISTING STAIRCASE?
Yes, an existing staircase can be altered to include a single or a double bullnose step, that can be carpeted or made with a view that can show the exposed wood which can be polished.
WHAT ABOUT DECORATIONS?
In many houses it is possible to renovate an existing staircase without disturbing the decorations. This may present some limiting factors that would be brought to your attention during the initial visit. Options to get around these would be offered by our experienced staircase designer.
WHAT ABOUT MY CARPET?
The carpets in many circumstances are not affected by the renovation of an existing staircase, but in most of the staircase renovations, they will need to be removed for safety and access reasons and will be able to be refitted once your project is complete.
I WANT A TRULY BESPOKE STAIRCASE. IS THIS POSSIBLE?
Absolutely! While there's a wide range of styles that our designers have to offer you on their visit we will work with you to create your own truly bespoke parts CNC machined or handcrafted on site by our skilled installers to create your vision and make you stand out from the rest.
MY STAIRCASE DOES NOT HAVE NEWEL POSTS AT PRESENT, IS IT POSSIBLE TO HAVE SOME INSTALLED TO AN EXISTING STAIRCASE?
Yes it's possible to incorporate newel posts to a staircase that has never had them. In many cases a staircase without newel posts is more of a blank canvas to work with for our staircase designers.
CAN YOU CHANGE A STAIRCASE

Yes we have many year experience in removing and replacing staircases in full.
