Floating staircase: the benefits

As well as its distinctive appearance, a floating staircase offers a number of attractive advantages:
 

  • Spaciousness
    The floating design creates a sense of spaciousness.
  • Aesthetics
    Thanks to its minimalist design, a floating staircase is a statement piece in any interior.
  • Light
    As there is space between the steps, plenty of light is allowed through.
  • Easy to clean
    There are no risers, so dust and dirt are less likely to accumulate.

How do we renovate a floating staircase?

When renovating a floating staircase, we use special block steps: solid steps made from a single piece of wood and installed on the staircase in one piece.
 

The process of renovating a floating staircase is as follows:

  1. During a consultation with the advisor, you will decide together which colour and design you like.
  2. The installation will be scheduled.
  3. Our fitters will first visit you to take precise measurements of all the steps.
  4. Based on these measurements, the new steps are made to exact specifications. This way, you can be sure that everything fits perfectly.
  5. On the day of installation, the old steps will be carefully removed and replaced with the new block steps, without the need for on-site cutting.
     

This way, the staircase renovation goes smoothly and you can enjoy your refurbished staircase on the very same day! Thanks to the durable finish, the steps will remain beautiful and scratch-free for a lifetime.

Frequently Asked Questions

The cost of covering a floating staircase varies depending on the situation and is influenced by factors such as your requirements, the condition of the staircase and the finishes you choose. This means that the price will differ for each customer, so please feel free to contact us so that we can provide you with a bespoke quote. 

The consultation is the first step towards your new staircase. Our consultant will visit your home and take plenty of time (around 1.5 hours) to show you all the options. Together, we’ll look at which style, materials and details suit your interior and preferences. This way, you’ll know exactly what’s possible and what best suits your situation. It’s best if both you and your partner are present during the consultation, so that you can choose the right colours and materials together.

We are a staircase renovation company that fits new stair tread covers over existing steps. We do not install new staircases ourselves and are not aware of the maximum weight limit for a floating stair tread. This varies depending on the staircase and the individual step. If you have a floating staircase, it is best to contact a building firm or a contractor directly. They may be able to answer your question.
