889. Rann Staircase
Kington
Herefordshire
This is a single winder staircase, the strings and risers are in softwood, all other parts are in ash. The softwood parts have been painted white on site which gives it a great contrast from ash to softwood. It has two single sided bullnose steps at the entry of the stairs. The handrails and baserails are our Pear style.
Our Customer Said:
Basically, we used ash and a cheaper timber which is painted. I prefer that to all ash, as it makes the treads stand out and contrasts with the wood grain. There seems to be a presumption by a lot of clients that wood has to be oak if you're going to show it off, nonsense - there's a lot of lovely timbers to use! We are impressed with Pear Stairs and have used you a few times now. The carpenters say how nicely they go together. We did use a slighter cheaper competitor for two little annex/workshops stairs, but they were not to your standard, lesson learnt!
