Metal Staircase Fitters

A metal staircase can offer a number of benefits for both domestic and commercial use. Metal is versatile and can be fabricated into a wide range of shapes, sizes and styles, from simple traditional staircases to more contemporary designs. Metal staircases can also be suitable for both internal and external applications, depending on the material and finish used. Aluminium and steel are two common materials because of their strength, durability and flexibility in fabrication.

Metal staircases are also used as an alternative to wooden, stone or concrete stairs. Their strength allows the material to be cut, shaped and welded into a range of designs, including configurations that may be more difficult to create using other materials. The amount of maintenance required will depend on the type of metal, protective finish and location of the staircase.

Finding a Metalworker to Build and Install Your Staircase

When hiring a metalworker, it is worth carrying out some checks before agreeing to the work. Be cautious about accepting work from tradespeople who arrive unexpectedly at your property, particularly if you have not had an opportunity to compare prices, check insurance or look at examples of previous work.

If you feel pressured into agreeing to work, ask for written details and take some time to consider your options. You can also ask family, friends or neighbours whether they have used a metalworker for similar work and whether they would hire the same contractor again.

Where possible, compare several written quotations. Each quote should clearly set out the work being carried out, total cost, proposed start date and estimated completion time. Price should not be the only consideration, so also compare what is included in each quote, examples of previous work, customer feedback and the proposed materials and specification.

Metal Staircase Prices

A wide variety of metal staircases are available for internal and external use, including stairs, loading docks, fire escapes, access platforms, and garden or balcony access. These can be supplied in kit form or manufactured to a bespoke design and installed by a metalworker. Many external steel staircases are hot-dip galvanised to help protect the metal from corrosion and reduce maintenance requirements.

Prices for kits can start from around £700 for a simple 3-foot-high staircase. Larger staircases will generally cost more, while extras such as balustrades, safety rails, landings and bespoke fabrication can also increase the overall price.

Bespoke staircases designed for a particular home or premises will usually cost more than standard kit systems.
