We build it in our Whitehall shop.
Your staircase is built in our Whitehall shop using the approved drawings and field measurements. We cut the stringers, treads, and risers to your run, add tread returns, cope the fittings, and assemble. Newels, balusters, and iron come from trusted suppliers, and everything is fit together under one roof. We deliver unfinished. We don't paint or stain, so you or your finisher can match the floors on site.
