Spindles are a great way to add style to your staircase. When undergoing a staircase renovation or if you are having a completely new flight installed then the spindles you choose will have a massive say on the overall final look of your staircase. Abbott-Wade who have been performing work on staircases since the mid-1990s have extensive experience when it comes to assessing and advising on the choosing the right spindles for your staircase.
The secret identity of street artist Banksy is a mystery. What we do know is that his stills with a spray can are second-to-none. To the best of our knowledge our own resident spraying expert is not the artist in question…but then again – he would say that wouldn’t he?
In many homes across the country a simple wooden or carpeted staircase with a regular bannister will suffice so when they choose to renovate and redecorate certain aspects of their home, their staircase is usually overlooked.
Abbott-Wade, a staircase specialist company, has been at the forefront of staircase changes for more than 20 years. We provide countless options for you to choose from when you feel your staircase could do with refreshing and many of our most popular styles involve glass staircase panels.
There’s a lot that goes on behind the scenes at Abbott-Wade. Beautiful bespoke staircases do not happen by accident. Our small team will manage your installation from start to finish. From the first design visit and survey to the final installation, our team work behind the scenes booking appointments, ordering and quality materials and pre-finishing all the staircase components your installation needs. Combined with our first-rate installation teams it all culminates in the overall service which Abbott-Wade customers have grown to love over the years.
“Please thank the whole team for the installation of this staircase. This professional service and quality finish was in stark contrast to our dealings with the installation of the original staircase from the previous supplier. This has really helped us out and we appreciate everyone’s efforts.” – Mr Kelly, Rickmansworth
To many people, a staircase is simply the way they go from one floor to another in their home, but the team at Abbott-Wade, one of the country’s premier staircase renovation firms, see a staircase as much more than that. It is a focal point of the home and in a lot of houses it is generally the first thing you clasp eyes on when you go through the front door so creating a spectacle staircase in your home is of massive importance to us.
We have been performing staircase refurbishments since 1996, helping homeowners across the length and breadth of the UK to revitalise their home by updating and refreshing existing staircases or by providing a completely brand new flight.
“Price was a big factor, but also the fitters being employed by the company, not requiring complete payment until completion, demonstrated to me that you have a lot of confidence in what you do.“
Glass balustrades continue to be a popular staircase choice for many of our customers. Where glass is not embedded into the rails, it is secured into place with metal clamps. These clamps (or brackets) come in several standard designs (see below) though others may be available upon request. Abbott-Wade’s standard brackets include stainless steel in a polished chrome effect or brushed steel which are popular for many modern homes. A brass option is also available. Our clamps also come in two popular styles; a rounded D-shape and a square edged bracket specifically designed for the 10mm toughened glass we use as standard. The style and finish choosen is entirely up to each customer. Many customers choose to match these with their existing door furniture and other fixings around the home to give a sense of continuity and cohesion.
