Stair & Landing Engineered Wood Flooring in Three Bridges, RH10
Stairs are the technical test in any flooring job. Every tread has a rise, a going and a nose profile — get any dimension wrong and the run isn't Building Regs compliant. On Three Bridges stair jobs we template every tread individually (they're rarely identical, even in a new build), match the stair nose to the hallway board batch, and use a grip-tested top coat on every stair.
The full scope of a Three Bridges stair Engineered Wood Flooring install
For new build Three Bridges homes we also check the sub-tread condition. Victorian and 1930s stairs sometimes have decayed sub-treads that need lifting and replacing before the new cladding goes on — priced separately, always quoted before it happens.

Stairs & Landings in Three Bridges — questions
- Will the stairs match my hallway floor in Three Bridges?
- Yes if ordered at the same time. Same-batch stair nose and tread top from the hallway floor supply means a genuine match, not a 'similar' finish.
- Can I have a herringbone stair in Three Bridges?
- Herringbone parquet on stair treads isn't practical — the pattern breaks at every tread. We fit herringbone on the landings only, with matched plain-board stair treads. Very popular in new build Three Bridges homes.
- Can I clad over existing stairs in Three Bridges, or do they need lifting?
- In 90% of Three Bridges jobs, cladding goes over the existing timber staircase without lifting. We check tread thickness and stability on the survey; only decayed sub-treads or non-compliant rises need replacement.
- Can I keep the painted risers and only wood the treads?
- Yes — the two-tone painted riser / wood tread look is our most-fitted Three Bridges spec. Riser prep and re-paint is quoted as part of the scope.
- Do you handle spindles and handrails on Three Bridges stair jobs?
- We handle spindle re-finish and handrail stripping / re-oiling on the same job. Full spindle replacement is quoted separately (typically £320–£680 for a run of 12).
- How much does stair cladding cost per tread in Three Bridges?
- £55–£85 per tread for standard straight runs in Three Bridges, £70–£110 for winders and dog-leg stairs with half-landings. Includes tread, riser prep, stair nose match and grip-finish top coat.

Stair cladding in Three Bridges is a detail-work job, not a board-lay. Templating, matched nose, painted risers and grip finish are the difference between 'joinery' and 'floor fitter'.
