Staircases & Glass Balustrades in Ilkley by BMK Joinery & Building

Ilkley is a Wharfedale town on the edge of the moors, and a place we are glad to work in. We provide staircases & glass balustrades for homeowners in Ilkley (LS29) and nearby Otley, Guiseley and Harrogate.

Hallways in larger Ilkley homes are made for a feature staircase: bespoke oak with a glass balustrade, or a restored period stair with matching spindles and handrail. We design, make and fit to suit.

A new staircase or balustrade can completely change the feel of a hallway and landing. We remove old bannisters and fit new oak handrails, newel posts and spindles, or contemporary glass balustrades with stainless fixings.

  • Oak handrails, newel posts and spindles
  • Frameless glass balustrades
  • Bannister replacement and refurbishment
  • Staircase alterations and landing work
  • Compliance with building regulations
  • Clean, tidy installation
Local knowledge

Building and joinery in Ilkley

The town is known for Victorian stone villas, terraces and substantial detached homes. Joinery, extensions, loft rooms, staircases and period-style windows and doors are all well suited to properties of this type.

Altering a historic staircase in a listed building may need listed building consent from City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council. Part K of the Building Regulations also applies to rise, going and guarding.

Ilkley is covered by the City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council rather than Leeds, and has conservation areas and listed buildings, with some Article 4 controls. Please confirm what applies to your address; we are happy to help you check.

What affects the price

Staircases & Glass Balustrades costs in Ilkley

The price of a staircase or balustrade depends on the design, timber and glass, and how much alteration is needed. We visit, measure and send a written quote.

  • Whether the staircase is new, altered or refurbished
  • The timber used and the finish (painted or oiled)
  • The glass specification and length of balustrade
  • Landing work and structural changes
  • Removal and disposal of the old staircase

As staircase builders and fitters we replace and refurbish staircases, spindles, newel posts and handrails, and fit glass balustrades for stairs, landings and balconies.
