Modern Timber Staircase supplied to a refurbishment in Nottingham creating a stunning visual impact.
Supplying stunning staircases which make an impression is what we are all -  about and this quarter turn flight timber staircase certainly hits the spot.  Oak treads with a white cut stringer matches beautifully to the stairs surrounds with the open risers keeping it light and open.

We like it and certainly the customer did as they sent these snaps.

Yes, I know they didn’t have balustrade and no it doesn’t meet building regulations. This was pointed out the client but they weren’t subject to planning as it was a small refurbishment – plus they didn’t have any children! Glass panels or spindles in stainless or timber can be retrofitted if required.
Check out the curved stringer detail – adds a lovely feature dont you think!

If you would like a price for a similar timber staircase – please get in touch. Crucially we need to know the shape of the stair (straight flight, quarter turn, half turn), the height and the timber you would like. Call us on 01794 522444 or email info@completestairsystems.co.uk.  You can of course pop into our new showroom in Romsey- please call to make an appointment.

Have finally worked though the enquiries from the Grand Designs show but have been neglecting the blog posts. Here we go then –
  Â
This long standing customer of ours based in Shaftesbury, Wilts, was building a new property which required a new feature staircase. The requirement was for simple clean lines, a modern and open feel  and of course it had to fall within the allocated budget .

Our traditional structure stair was selected in beech parquet timber, with open risers and polished stainless steel spindles. Our Traditional structure certainly doesn’t mean traditional style as you can see in the pictures – it refers to the way the stair is supported, with two stringers either side.

Beech parquet is a very popular choice at present. With this option the timber is still solid beech but each block is made up of smaller pieces giving a more pronounced stripe effect.  It is about 15% cheaper than solid beech and is often requested to match a parquet floor.

Our ‘traditional’ structure stairs are available in a variety of configurations, designs and materials. Remember – traditional structure but modern design. Combining solid timber with open and light balustrade options.

Some really stunning pictures of a WF timber staircase supplied to a customer near us in Ringwood.
Our customer sent in the pictures and he has really captured the floating feel the staircase has given the refurbishment.
The WF timber staircase has no internal / exposed stringer – only one on the wall side so the entire flight appears to float in mid air.
In this instance the wall stringer was supplied ‘cover painted white’ to further emphasise the floating feel.
This model was supply in a quarter turn with a stunning swooping curved handrail at the 90 degree turn. If you look closely at the pictures you will see a small platform at floor level which was required to ensure the wall stringer missed the doorway below whilst maintaining sufficient headroom.
This model was supplied with beech parquet treads and handrail which the customer oiled himself to match the surrounding timber of the doors and windows.   I am sure you agree the result is truly spectacular!!!!
As usual – please let us know the height, configuration and timber you would like.





Further examples of this model can be seen on the links below.

Open timber staircase installed recently in our open WF style. This model was a little unique as it didnt form a conventional half turn. The bottom of the staircase was only angled around 45 degrees instead of 90 and the upper turn had a 45 degree angle shaped into the stringer – see the pics to see.
The treads, wall stringer on this open staircase were created in 42mm oak and the spindles were stainless steel. Our client went for a curved handrail at both turns to create a real swooping effect.





Links below take you to various other models from the open WF timber staircase range plus provide a little more info about the product.

We received these pictures a couple of days ago from a customer we supplied in Sevenoaks. The Model is a WF system (with no internal stringer) and forms a quarter turn configuration. Main features of the stair are the open floating feel created with the cantilevered and the swooping curved internal handrail at the turn. This model was produced in solid Oak with brushed stainless spindles to the balustrade.
For a price – please let us know the floor to floor height and shape of the stair.

These photos were taken recently by us of a staircase supplied in Surrey. It was a new timber frame construction and the client selected our traditional style staircase with glass panels. The flight had open risers for the lower flight, a mid platform, and then closed risers for the final flight. The stair was manufactuered in solid Oak.
