Loft Staircases: Made to Measure

At Edwards & Hampson, out main area of specialisation is loft staircases. The most difficult type of staircase is one that has to adhere to a tight space and with most loft staircases this is the most important part of the design. We work along side builders and loft conversion specialists in order to squeeze in the perfect staircase, this includes an initial survey, providing design drawings, advising on relevant building regulations and advising on positions of joists, dormer windows etc.

What of the biggest problems with loft staircases is that it will existing in the same stairwell as the original staircase, which in a lot of cases may be decades old featuring period features that aren’t readily available now. What we offer, due to our manufacturing capabilities and links with specialised suppliers, is an ability to match the balustrade and components of the original staircase and in what would be a continuous stairwell make the new staircase appear as though it was always there.

With loft conversions you want to minimise the amount of mess and disruption, which means making sure that when the opening is created and the knock through is complete, the staircase needs to be on site as soon as possible. With that we offer a quick turnaround throughout the north west with a 5-7 days turnaround on loft staircases. This means that you can rely on the staircase being on site at a time to meet the build.
