Stairway to heaven MAKING A BIG IMPRESSION IS EASIER THAN YOU THINK... staircase is often the first thing we see when we enter a house, so give yours the best impression possible with the help of Stairkraft. Many people think that the best way to update their staircase is to install a completely new one, but the Stairkraft team have the experience and knowhow to step up your existing stairs. “A makeover is aimed at customers who are looking to update or revamp an existing staircase without the disruption of major building works,” says Stairkraft co-owner, Viveca Hall. “This normally entails replacing the existing handrail, treads and balustrade, made with traditional spindles for supporting structural glass. The staircase structure, stringers and newel posts can be kept and painted. “Stairkraft offers a full design and installation service. Our own in-house fitting team has over 20 years’ experience within the construction and metal fabrication industry.” Customers with traditional softwood joinery banister choose Stairkraft’s glass designs because they instantly modernise a home – it’s a simple job that creates a big difference. What’s more, a staircase upgrade is fantastic value for money, with prices starting at just £2,000 plus VAT. White oak is particularly popular, but

Stairkraft also offers a wide range of 18mm thick hardwood timbers, including engineered timber. With plenty of choice on offer, the team are able to meet almost any client’s design brief. All designs proposed are backed up and presented with 3D views for the client to approve prior to manufacture. A site visit to carry out a full survey is also included in the service, together with full set of technical drawings. Once all the items are manufactured, their installation team will deliver and fit the staircase components at a time that suits you. A full makeover takes between four and five days. All glass used is toughened, structural glass to take the weight of the balustrade, whilst achieving a flawless look. Infill glass panels are another great alternative, depending on your particular design. Stairkraft offers both new bespoke designs and makeovers.

Testimonial: “We must thank you and give you a loud cheer for sending two excellent guys to adjust the steel work ready for the eventual final installation. Good men like Kevin and John are a pleasure to have around. We very much hope you will be able to send them to do the final work when the time comes. They worked together well, purposely, with great care and attention to detail. They explained to us what was wrong, how it could/would be corrected and how it would all look when the treads and glass were fitted. And they left a very clean and tidy site. Our vote goes to Staikraft – top of the class!” Valerie and Michael from Sheffield
