If you live in an old house or one with a certain amount of character, you may well have a staircase that seems to have a life of its own. Creaks, cracks and wobbles are common in staircases throughout the country, yet when did you ever actually have a serious think about doing something about them? Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to walk down the stairs without wobbly handrails making it a white knuckle ride? Or how about making a real feature of your staircase to highlight and enhance your home?
A professional joinery company is the trade to call upon if you are considering doing just this.
Renovating an Old Staircase
Wobbly, worn out handrails that no longer fit the essence of the home or broken and missing spindles can easily be replaced by a joinery expert, as can individual steps. No matter what type of wood you desire, the joinery professional will be able to meet all your requirements and of course will be on hand to advise on the best type of material and finish to go for in your situation.
New Designs
Perhaps your staircase doesn’t really work with the rest of the home’s layout? Maybe you’d benefit from relocating it? Or bringing it up to date to match your current décor.
A joinery expert will make detailed plans and present you with a solution that will be attractive and practical. The sign of a good joiner is that he will be able to create bespoke designs that are sensitive to the character of your home but at the same time long lasting and practical, making good use of the materials available. It is also a good sign if the staircase is designed and pre-fitted in a special workshop before installation to reduce the risk of problems arising onsite.
Choose a joiner with a good reputation; one that places emphasis on using quality materials and producing a pristine finish. And then enjoy your new staircase!
