Can a new staircase go in a different place in a Ipswich home?
Orwell Carpentry fits new staircases, whether replacing the old one or in a new position. Replacing it outright is right when the structure is tired, not only the look. A loft conversion is the loft conversion in Kesgrave other usual reason, since a new floor needs a way up.
In England a new staircase must meet Approved Document K of the Building Regulations. It sets limits on rise, going, pitch, headroom and guarding. Measuring and planning come before any timber is cut.
Is it easy to replace a staircase?
Not especially. It is structural, it affects the landing and the headroom, and a new flight has to meet Building Regulations. Often it is not needed at all. New newel posts, handrails and spindles often do the job, and Orwell Carpentry fits complete new staircases too.
What makes a fence last?
New fencing round front and back gardens is Orwell Carpentry work. Options range from the plainly sturdy to the more stylish. A consultation costs nothing.
Posts almost always fail at ground level, where the timber stays wet and air meets soil. Treated posts and a base that drains well matter more than anything else. Panels come and go, but posts are the real investment.
What does a bathroom renovation involve?
Bathroom renovation is among the refurbishment projects Orwell Carpentry takes on. You can start with just a rough idea and a style in mind, and creative ideas can be put forward from there.
A couple of weeks is typical for a small bathroom. Leaving the fittings in place saves most, because relocating them means lifting floors. Character comes from panelling, lighting and storage more than from the suite.
