What the Work Includes

  • Design. Engineer's stair design and reinforcement.
  • Formwork. Shuttering for the flight, steps and landing.
  • Steel. Reinforcement tied into slabs and walls.
  • Concrete. Pour and finish.
  • Stripping. Formwork removed after curing.
  • Finish-ready surface. Ready for tiling, cladding or polishing.

Suitable Projects

Double-storey homes, townhouses, basements, mezzanines, external entrance steps and commercial fire escapes.

Available Systems

  • L-shaped or dog-leg. With a landing to turn.
  • Precast stairs. Factory-made and lifted into place.
  • Cantilevered or floating stairs. Steps fixed into a wall, needing careful design.

How the System Is Chosen

Floor-to-floor height, available space, finish and load paths decide the stair type. The engineer and architect confirm dimensions to building regulations.

Project Process

  1. Plans. Stair layout from the architect.
  2. Design. Engineer's reinforcement.
  3. Form. Shuttering built on site.
  4. Steel and pour. Reinforcement and concrete.
  5. Cure. Formwork left for the specified time.
  6. Finish. Ready for the chosen cladding.

What Affects Cost and Timelines

  • Shape. Landings and turns add formwork.
  • Height. More risers, more concrete and steel.
  • Finish. Off-shutter or polished finishes cost more.
  • Timing. Building the stair with the slab saves cost.

What to Send for an Accurate Quote

  • Your name, email and phone or WhatsApp number.
  • Your town or suburb.
  • The service you need.
  • The approximate size, such as floor area in m² or wall length and height.
  • A short project description and your preferred start date.
  • Whether you have approved plans, engineer's drawings or a soil report.

Plans, drawings and photos can be shared with the contractor you choose once you are in contact.
