Directors Oliver Addison and Chris Tingle take a hands-on approach to any build – and say the key to a quality finished product is taking ownership of the project from start to finish.

From initial design through to manufacture and installation, only the most skilled technicians get their hands on the staircase.

“For this type of work, the houses we tend to work in are quite often large and impressive and so require a staircase to match,” said Chris. “We have a small, specialist team of 11 experienced staff with more than 80 years’ experience between them, and it takes a long time to put a team together to do this sort of work; it is highly skilled, ” Oliver added.

“We do everything; we draw up the design that will give the house the biggest “wow” factor as that is what people generally want when you first walk through the front door into the hall — a magnificent staircase that takes the breath away.”
