Process
From drawing to completed project
A staircase project has a shape. Here it is, so you know what happens next and what we need from you at each stage.
The stages
Six stages, start to finish
- 01
Consultation
We talk about the space, what you want and what's realistic. If you already have drawings, send them. If you have photos, send those.
- 02
Site measurement
We measure floor-to-floor height, run, width and the existing conditions. This is where guesses become numbers.
- 03
Design and material selection
We produce a drawing and a material list — species, thickness, profiles, railing components and finish.
- 04
Formal quote
The quote itemises materials, fabrication, labour, installation, removal, finishing, delivery and tax. Approving the quote freezes the line items and the price.
- 05
Fabrication
Your staircase is built to the approved drawing. Lead time depends on species, finish and complexity, and it's stated in the quote.
- 06
Installation
We install, finish where specified, and clean up.
Good to know
About change orders
Sometimes what's underneath isn't what anyone expected — an out-of-square opening, damage that only shows once the old treads come off, a species that's suddenly unavailable. When that happens we stop, tell you, price the change, and wait for your written approval before we continue. You will not receive a surprise on the final invoice.
