Staircases & Glass Balustrades in Otley by BMK Joinery & Building

Otley is a historic market town in Wharfedale, a short drive from our Leeds base. We provide staircases & glass balustrades for homeowners in Otley (LS21) and nearby Bramhope, Guiseley and Ilkley.

In older Otley houses, steep and narrow staircases are common. We renovate existing flights, replace spindles, newel posts and handrails, and fit glass balustrades where a lighter look is wanted.

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 Otley

The town is full of stone terraces, Victorian houses and cottages, with newer estates on the edges. Stone detailing, sash-style windows, original features and tight rear gardens all shape how we approach work here.

Changing the position of a stair in an older house can involve structural alterations. Part K of the Building Regulations covers rise, going and headroom, which can be tight in terraces.

Otley is covered by Leeds City Council and the historic centre includes a conservation area. If your home is old, listed or in the town centre, we will help you check what consent is needed before work begins.

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

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