It can be a challenge to decide when to renovate a staircase. It helps to remember that everyone in your family interacts with it on a daily basis, and, renovated with care, can improve your home's style, safety and livability.
First Step Designs recommends that you consider a staircase renovation when:
Yes, you can. In fact, the point of a staircase renovation is to return it to its former glory (or better) without the need, costs, or hassle of a full staircase replacement. Staircase remodelling focuses largely on the visible elements of a staircase, and while our team is more than happy to address minor structural issues, they aim to breathe new life into old stairs without the disruption of tearing everything out.
With First Step Designs as your renovation partner, you don't have to be a world-class designer to get world-class results. Our design team will work with you from day one, working through design ideas and directions built around your tastes and home's existing styles.
We encourage our clients to visit our inspiration gallery to find stair styles, materials, and finishes that fit into their vision. Using this as a jumping off point, we craft original and one-of-a-kind staircase renovation concepts, iterating on the designs you find inspiring until we find the design that brings it all together.
Recognised as the leading UK staircase company, we're very confident that we can help you renovate your stairs into something inspiring.
