used will be the biggest driver of cost, so consider carefully. For a basic kit system, expect to pay in the region of £1-2K, however, keep in mind that most of these systems will only go up to a 1600 mm diameter, limiting them to be used only as a secondary stair (Category A). At the top end of the kit range, a fully specified system with solid hardwood treads and stainless steel barrels and spindles can cost as much as £4K. In contrast, the cost variance for bespoke spiral staircases is much greater and, although starting at around £5K, the introduction of expensive timbers like walnut, or curved glass balustrades, can see prices rise to £20K. Ultimately, a style and budget is available to suit everyone. If you are looking for a versatile, practical and value for money alternative to the tried and tested conventional staircase, the spiral staircase offers the perfect solution. A stylish, symmetrical design, wide range of available materials, and a compact footprint means that when you come to specify your new build or renovation, a spiral staircase should be top of your list.

Flooring provides cost-saving solution required. The solution was found in Gerflor’s Attraction®
When Monmouthshire Council’s St Mary’s Roman Catholic (RC) Primary School needed a new flooring to replace the old granwood flooring within two multi-purpose halls and a corresponding corridor, something suitable which was both quick to install and cost-efficient was , a highly
durable, loose-lay, fast track floor tile system which could be quickly and easily laid directly over the existing flooring, thereby avoiding the time, cost and mess that would have been involved in lifting the original granwood, which typically creates a lot of dust.
