A bespoke staircase conversion has the power to transform your home, and Stairway Joinery ensures the stairs in your property exude quality and are precisely fitted and stylish in line with your interior design. Bespoke timber staircases crafted from premium hardwoods and softwoods offer the perfect combination of durability and aesthetic appeal.
Regardless of whether you live in a terraced, semi-detached or detached house, our specialist team can convert the staircases of any residential building. Every conversion is tailored to complement your home's unique character while meeting modern building regulations and safety standards.
We have years of experience converting timber and concrete stairways of commercial properties here in the South. We want to ensure your staircase is fully functional and fit for purpose for the needs of your everyday operations, while also taking into consideration design, health and safety, and style.
Commercial properties of all types can benefit from professional staircase conversions, including retail units, industrial warehouses and hospitality establishments such as hotels, restaurants, cafes and pubs. From staircase nosings to handrails, every detail is taken care of.
Replacing your old staircase can be a lengthy and expensive process, and it tends to involve a lot of noise and mess.
However, converting your timber staircase gives you the benefit of a fresh, modern staircase, without the need for a full replacement. As it requires a lot less work and fewer materials than a full replacement, it's quicker to complete, less disruptive to your everyday life, and much easier on the wallet.
Transforming an outdated or damaged staircase breathes new life into your home. We specialise in converting existing staircases while working around your daily routine.
Here's how we handle staircase conversions:
Most staircase conversions are completed within three weeks from initial survey to final installation.
With over 40 years’ experience in converting staircases with bespoke detailing features in Dorset, Hampshire, Wiltshire and Somerset we are well placed to create the ideal staircase for your property. We work hard to ensure your design fits your brief and is built and installed in as little as 3 weeks turnaround.

Absolutely. We plan conversions around your schedule to minimise disruption. Most work happens in our workshop, with on-site installation typically completed within a few days. We protect surrounding areas throughout, keeping dust and debris contained so you can continue living or operating normally during the conversion process.
Conversion costs vary depending on your design requirements and existing structure, but they're generally 30-50% less expensive than complete replacements. We provide transparent, detailed quotes after our free site survey, breaking down materials, labour, and any structural modifications needed so you understand exactly what you're investing in.
Yes, compliance is guaranteed. Our designs incorporate all current building regulations for pitch, headroom, handrail height, and balustrade spacing. We handle any necessary notifications to building control and provide certification upon completion, giving you complete peace of mind that your converted staircase is fully compliant and safe.
We assess structural integrity during our initial survey. If we discover rot, weakened supports, or other issues, we'll recommend appropriate repairs before conversion. Our joiners can reinforce or replace damaged structural elements as part of the conversion, ensuring your finished staircase is built on solid, safe foundations.
Definitely. Conversions offer complete design flexibility. You can transform a traditional closed-string staircase into an open-plan contemporary design, update spindles to glass panels, or modernise carved newel posts with sleek metal posts. We'll show you options that suit your vision while working within your property's spatial constraints.
We're experienced at colour-matching and can source timber species that coordinate beautifully with your existing joinery. Our finishing process includes staining and treatments to achieve seamless integration. We'll bring samples during consultation so you can see exactly how new elements will complement your current interior before work begins.
