The project in detail
A beautifully considered staircase project that brings together painted woodwork and a stunning carpet runner to create a real focal point in this Lechlade home. The natural oak of the staircase treads forms a warm contrast with the painted elements, while the feature carpet runner adds pattern, texture, and a touch of luxury underfoot. Our work focused on bringing the painted woodwork, including spindles, banister, string, skirting and wall face, up to an impeccable standard. This involved thorough preparation: sanding back any rough areas, filling imperfections, applying the appropriate primer, and building up top coats in bright white Benjamin Moore Scruff-x for a finish that looks genuinely flawless. Getting the woodwork finish right on a staircase is particularly demanding given the number of surfaces involved and the scrutiny they receive close-up every single day. The finished result speaks for itself. It is a staircase that feels considered, contemporary, and beautifully finished.
