Craig got in touch quickly, gave me a rough estimate over the phone and answered all my questions. Surveyor arrived on time, gave instant quote. Price was good. Michael and (another) Craig turned up to do the job on the day, time given. Good, tidy job. Can't fault anything, from start to finish!! Would recommend!

George and his team are experienced builders, replaced my front door with a custom frame/sidelights and raising the floor level in the hallway quite quickly - in fact, they were the only who came next day, gave a quote straightaway and were ready to start in just couple of days. They also had all the necessary tools and materials, were ready to buy something additional quickly on the day - if further adjustments were required to fit everything as I asked. Thanks a lot for your help, guys!

Dmitry

Highly recommend. These guys did a fantastic job of constructing our pergola and decking. Very hardworking and reliable. The job was completed in the time frame agreed and to a very high standard. We would 100% use them again.

Types of wooden staircases

  • Straight Staircases: A classic choice, perfect for straightforward access between floors.
  • L-Shaped and U-Shaped Staircases: These designs offer a turn or two, ideal for adding style and fitting into corners.
  • Spiral Staircases: A compact, decorative option that works well in small spaces or as a focal point.
  • Curved Staircases: Elegant and custom-built, curved staircases are perfect for creating a dramatic entryway.

Cost of a wooden staircase

The cost of a wooden staircase depends on factors such as design, materials, and customization:

  • Basic Straight Staircase: Costs typically range from £1,000 to £2,500.
  • Custom L-Shaped or U-Shaped Staircase: Prices start around £3,000 and can reach £5,000 or more.
  • Curved or Spiral Staircase: For custom-built options, expect prices upwards of £5,000, depending on complexity and wood type.

How long does it take to build a wooden staircase?

Building a wooden staircase usually takes 1 to 3 days for simpler designs, while custom or curved staircases can take up to a week. This timeline includes the structural setup, finishing touches, and any required sanding or painting. Larger or more intricate designs may require additional time for precise installation and adjustments.

Other wooden staircase FAQs

What is the best paint for a wooden staircase?

Durable, non-slip paint specifically made for high-traffic areas is ideal for wooden staircases, ensuring safety and a long-lasting finish.

Can I install a wooden staircase myself?

While it’s possible, building a staircase requires skill and precision, so hiring a professional is recommended for safety and quality.

What wood types are commonly used for staircases?

Popular options include oak, pine, and walnut, each offering a unique look and varying levels of durability.

DO NOT USE THIS PLUMBER! Andy MacClay trading as FRPM was engaged to fit a bathroom for a lady in her 90's. Although personable, he did an appalling job and left the poor lady with raw sewage leaking and a dreadful smell. She was very distressed for months and it cost over £1800 to put the work right. He has since stopped answering his phone and does not respond to any communication.
