Choosing Stairs for a Loft Conversion


A Loft Conversion nearly always involves the installation of a new Loft Staircase. Most homeowners simply want the new Loft Staircase to follow the style of the existing staircase as closely as possible. However, if there isn't an existing staircase to copy, or if you just don't like what you already have here are a few staircase styles you could consider. These aren't the only options but they are the most popular. If you have in mind a specialist staircase from a specific supplier please discuss this with us as early as possible as there are very often special requirements for how the site needs to be prepared for them. At the bottom of the page you will find an explanation of some of the terminology used to describe parts of staircases.
