Our renovation team travelled to Stourbridge for a wonderful couple seeking a solid oak staircase with a sleek twist.

Finding a trustworthy oak and glass staircase fitter near them had been tricky. However, a friend's recommendation to contact Staircraft Renovations intrigued them.

The couple contacted us for a design that would complement their home's existing wooden door frames and fixtures. The team also needed to work around a stairlift, but that was no problem at all.

We listened to what the homeowners needed from their staircase renovation because experience has taught us that while design matters, the new staircase has to work for the practicalities of the home and the needs of the people living there.

After showing examples of recent projects and talking about materials and the space for the installation, we worked with them to design a classic oak staircase with solid glass panels.

The countdown for the staircase renovation began

Excited to begin, the homeowners asked how much the oak and glass staircase would cost. We priced up the project and swiftly sent over a quote with a 30-day guarantee.

Happy with the price, our Stourbridge customers gave us the go-ahead and we provided an installation date.

The Staircraft Renovations team arrived on time and took the time to introduce themselves formally to the homeowners. They explained that contrary to belief, access to the upstairs wouldn’t be off limits.

A home still needs to function, regardless of whether the stairs are being upgraded. We always encourage the families we work with to let us know when they need to pop upstairs and we do our best to accommodate that.

Next, the stairway was prepped promptly and work began as expected.

Remodelling the stairs

To avoid disruption, our team worked outside to prepare the oak and glass materials.

They modernised the staircase using innovative techniques to clad existing structural elements and upgrade essential features like newel posts and glass balustrades.

Next, our team painstakingly finished all of the timber stair components by hand, guaranteeing a finish that oozes quality. We take great pride in ensuring that our staircases have a thorough once-over and every part is covered.

We worked with the high ceilings and natural light, mindful of creating a shine on the meticulously polished glass to instil a feeling of openness in both the stairs and hallway.
