The most suitable types of wood used in stairs possess excellent durability, strength, and resistance to wear and tear. That's why hardwoods such as oak, walnut, and sapele are popular choices in staircase design, as they often last longer than softwoods. However, the ultimate choice of wood for your staircase will depend on your budget and colour preference. Contact our team today to discuss your options.

We produce our staircases using hardwoods such as oak, ash, walnut, beech, sapele, as well as softwoods like deal, whitewood, and hemlock. Each wood has its unique characteristics and offers a different look and feel. To find out more about our available wood options, don’t hesitate to contact our team.
