With over 25 years experience in building stairs and over 30 dedicated staff, you can rest assured that the team at Gowling knows what they are talking about. We are committed to helping clients in the Balwyn area come up with a timber staircase design that complements the style of their home as well as meeting their needs. We will handle every aspect of the design and installation, from the timber posts through to the stair nosing, so you know you’re in good hands!
Staircase Designs
We are able to work with timber staircase designs in a variety of styles, including modern, contemporary, traditional, classic, open, closed, cut, concealed and combination. We are also able to work with feature designs, which is the name given to one-off staircases that have been created for a particular client. We understand that the stairs are an important feature of your Balwyn home, as they perform the necessary function of joining two levels.
Timber Posts
Whilst we are also able to work with stainless steel in the creation of these posts, we have found that timber is our most popular material. It matches many staircase designs (including classic, contemporary and traditional) and can be stained or painted to ensure it complements your Balwyn home. Posts perform both a functional and decorative function – they mark the ends of the staircase, provide the balustrade or handrail with support, and are quite nice to look at.
Stair Nosing
This is a component of the staircase design that is often overlooked, as it is quite small in comparison to the other sections. We have three different kinds of nosing to choose from for Balwyn homes – pencil around (which protrudes over the edge of the tread and is curved), square (which protrudes over the edge of the tread and is sharp) and no overhang (which sits flush with the tread). The curved and no overhang options also look great with carpet.
If you are interested in a timber staircase design and want to find a company with years of experience in building stairs, we hope that you will contact the team at Gowling. Attention to detail is incredibly important to us and this is shown in all components of the project, from timber posts to stair nosing. Our showroom is open Monday and to Friday and by appointment, so drop in at a time that is convenient to you to discuss your Balwyn project further.
