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.

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.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS I can't recommend Tom. Previously TH&Jones Ltd he has changed the company name. He has left us with an extension that doesn't meet building regulations and needs to be taken down. Our house unsalable. I have an independent report to support it. Insufficient foundation, no damp course, insufficient insulation, incorrect installation of roof. He said he would rectify if we paid for 'things unquoted' but failed to show exactly what. We haven't heard from him in months. Stay away!!

Tom came to skim my son's ceiling but because it had old artex and very uneven he decided to put a false ceiling in, board that and then skim it. Tom is a really friendly guy, kept showing me where he was up to in the job and was very tidy and did a great overall job at a good price. Wouldn't hesitate to use Tom again or recommend to friends and family.
