Refurbishing Stairs

Question

We have a typical 50's built semi with a blockwork half wall instead of spindles on the stairs. We would like to change this to spindles and bannister. Is it a job for an experienced DIYer? If not, roughly how much would it cost to get in a tradesperson?

Kenny · Accepted Answer

No it’s a job for a tradesman and depending on the size

"As stated in other posts this is trades person not someone who does DIY.

Cost determined on ease of removal and size of what is being removed / rebuilt.

The price is certainly in the thousands not hundreds.

As has also been stated before waste is a major consideration in the project and cost of project."

I would not recommend a diy~er 
I would say around £2k labour and materials .
You will also need a skip for the rubbish as it will 
Amount up .

This is a job for experienced tradespeople the price would depend on what prep work needs carried out to have it ready for new spindles etc get two or 3 people out and compare quotes would be my advice

You could do this yourself just make sure the stud work is not supporting stairs or around 500 to get done

The purpose of waterproofing is to FULLY  water tight.  It s true you can patch it, but When u patch a part , you are creating an extra joint and that is a potential crack and future leak.Do it right please, and redo the all the floor with upstand.

Yes, you can use a combination of slabs and gravel for a permeable driveway covering 5 square meters.
