Hand-built timber staircases designed, made and installed by our own team. From straightforward straight runs in a new-build to architectural feature staircases in a converted barn or oast house, every staircase we make starts from a site survey and a CAD drawing approved by you.

Treads, risers, strings, newels and balusters are all dry-fitted in the workshop before delivery — so installation on site is precise and clean.

Customisation

Tailored to your home

Choose a contemporary glass-and-oak design, a traditional turned-baluster staircase, or a one-off cantilever. Mix timbers — say, oak treads on a painted string. We'll draw it up before you commit to anything.

Ideal for

Property suitability

New-build homes, barn conversions, period property replacements, loft conversions, and any project where the staircase is part of the architectural language of the house.

Installation

How we fit it

Installation usually takes 2–4 days on site after the workshop build. We coordinate with any flooring contractor so the trim detail at the bottom and top is right.

Common questions

Frequently asked

Can you replace a staircase without major upheaval? +
Often yes — we can sometimes replace treads, risers and balustrade without removing the existing carriage strings. Other times a full replacement is the better option. We'll discuss both at the survey.
Do you work with listed buildings and conservation areas? +
Frequently — a significant portion of our work is for period and listed properties. We can produce drawings, sample sections and historical-detail matches to support conservation officer applications, and we're familiar with the listed-building process across Kent and the London boroughs.
How long does it take from first call to installation? +
A typical project takes 6–12 weeks from initial site visit to install. Survey and design happen in week 1; manufacture in our workshop takes the bulk of the time; installation is usually a few days on site. Larger projects or specialist timber may take longer — we'll be honest about timings at the quote stage.
Do you do free quotes? +
Yes. We'll come out, talk through your project, take measurements and provide a written itemised quote. There's no obligation, no high-pressure follow-up and no fee.
Do you install everything yourselves? +
Yes. Everything we make is fitted by our own team. For kitchens and bedrooms we also coordinate any plumbing, electrical or building work on your behalf so you have a single point of contact.
Where are you based and how far do you travel? +
Our workshop is at Seal Croft Farm in Seal, just outside Sevenoaks. We cover Sevenoaks, Tunbridge Wells, Tonbridge, Maidstone, Bromley, Orpington and much of central and south London. For larger projects we travel further into Kent and Surrey.
