Why have one staircase when you can have four?
An attractive detached house dating back to the 18th Century, situated on the edge of this historic village of Hurley-on-Thames is one of the latest properties in the UK to benefit from a truly bespoke staircase from British Spirals & Castings; in fact not just one staircase but four! Richard Harding of British Spirals & Castings commented “They [the home owners] were lovely people to work with who had some fantastic ideas about what they wanted, and with our experience and
ability to create something truly unique we created four different staircases for them; The main stairs, a squarial, a second spiral and a straight stairs.”

20 years of style, security and quality
Once you have made a decision to fit timber windows and doors in your home, how do you decide which species of timber is best for you? KAT, manufactures wooden windows and doors from a wide range of species, such as Redwood, Oak, Idigbo, Sapele and Accoya timber. Softwoods such as Fir or Spruce have a low resistance to decay, which makes them good for manufacturing windows. Softwood is less expensive than hardwood and is often the choice of timber when considering your budget. The disadvantage of softwoods is that they absorb moisture so aren’t as stable as hardwoods. Hardwoods such as Oak, Idigbo and Sapele are popular for windows and doors as they are more stable and durable than Softwood.Oak has been used for centuries and is admired for its beautiful grain and its’ strength and durability. Idigbo is a yellow-brown colour hardwood, sourced from West Africa. It’s a moderately durable hardwood commonly used as an inexpensive alternative to Oak, due to its likeness when stained to the same colour. Sapele is also sourced from West Africa and has a medium reddish brown appearance. If you are looking for naturally beautiful wooden windows made from the most durable wood possible, guaranteed to last at least 25 years, then Accoya timber could be the timber of choice for you.
