Staircases & Balustrades

As you enter a property, the staircase is often the first thing that you see...so it is so important that it looks right. As it is used many times a day, it needs to be built to last.

Staircases offer many design posibilities. In new homes, they can really set the tone in terms of visual appeal. Alternatively, if you are renovating an existing property, a new staircase can become an outstanding feature.

  

Spiral stairs are available pre-built or as a reassemble kit. They are economical in cost and space usage and are great for new attics, basement rooms, or two-story additions.

Spiral stairs are made of steel, aluminum, hardwood, and combinations of these. Many companies make both metal and hardwood...you choose a basic design from them and then customize the treads, balusters and railings to suit the design and look you wish to create.

Helical and curved stairs are normally custom-designed and can be purchased pre-assembled or custom made at the factory. Any type of circular stairway is heavy and will require a lifting device to assemble.

 

Straight stairs are understandable the most common. The design is straight up or down. Some companies manufacture them in sections ready to connect end-to-end or at landings. Most pre-built sets come with pre-cut and fitted trimmings that are numbered for reassembly.

Ready-to-assemble staircases are lower cost, but less customized. You can choose spiral, straight, helical, curved or another shape. They can be wide or narrow, steep or gradual, and can be made from a multitude of materials.
