I’ve invested in some better drawing software. It’s taken me a couple of hours to drawer a staircase that I’ve already finished.

New loft access in a 1600s listed home, built with reclaimed ship timber. Headroom was tight and the newer loft sat 500 mm higher. I dropped a 120 degree winder stair in the centre of the roof for safe, comfortable access that respects the building.

We have been quite busy lately with work that we’ve been neglecting the projects section. But here’s one.

Modern staircase update with oak and glass
This staircase was updated without replacing the full structure. We added new oak caps, fitted an oak handrail and pine baserail, repainted the original posts, and finished the job with 10mm toughened glass. The result is a cleaner and more current look that suits the home.

I'm fitting a balustrade on a staircase today. As I'm looking at I think I might have fitted this staircase a couple of years ago.

Today we fitted a staircase that I was told was impossible to fit.

Anyway, here it is.

I've been double checking my math this morning.

I've been told my staircase design is impossible to fit in a space.

So I've been checking all my headroom's and it seems to work, headroom's are tight but they it fits.

Now to shake this imposter syndrome.

And it's finished!

Every time I do one of these I always want to do a solid oak one.

Openvibe does a weird thing where when I reply to someone it also automatically mentions me too.

Well, I'm never giving my child skittles before bed again.

A little refurb that's complete, ready to be decorated.

This staircase was getting old and it was steep so we changed pitch slightly and brought it in to the 21st century.

Today is about balustrading a staircase we fit two days ago.

Let's go!

Glass balustrade upgrade? 🏡✨ Bracket-mounted or inset glass—what’s best?

✔️ Bracket-mounted: Modern with visible fixings

After a couple of hours of playing around I think I found the source the kept crashing my website.

I will be monitoring closely but I think it's fixed for now.

The staircase is now installed, seamlessly fitting into its surroundings. A simple yet well-crafted design that brings the space together.

Today, we are going to be making adjustments to this staircase to make it look a little better.

This started out as a ladder that was pretending to be a staircase.

But with some pipe cleaners, some shiny paper, a sprinkle of glitter, scissors, and a responsible adult. We made a staircase.
