Made-to-measure timber staircases designed and manufactured in our Hertfordshire workshop, delivered throughout Colchester.
We manufacture and deliver bespoke timber stairs in Colchester and surrounding areas. All our bespoke timber stairs are made to measure and can usually be supplied within 10 days.
Colchester's homes span two thousand years of building — timber-framed houses in the Dutch Quarter, Victorian terraces off Lexden Road, Edwardian semis in New Town, and the fast-growing new-build estates at Stanway and Mile End. Very few of them suit an off-the-shelf staircase. At DAB Stairs, we manufacture bespoke timber staircases in our Hertfordshire workshop — a straightforward run up the A12 — and deliver throughout Colchester, each one made to measure for your space, whether that's a curved centrepiece for a period hallway or a compact winder for a loft conversion.
We arrange a professional site survey at your property to take accurate measurements and discuss your requirements in detail.

Yes. Colchester has some of the oldest housing stock in the country — from timber-framed buildings in the Dutch Quarter to Victorian and Edwardian terraces across the town. We're experienced in manufacturing staircases for period homes with non-standard dimensions, and can match existing spindle profiles, newel posts and handrail styles where needed.
Yes — curved and geometric staircases are one of our specialities. Each one is designed around your hallway and manufactured to measure in solid timber. We also make quarter turn, half turn and winder staircases where a full curve won’t fit the space.
Most staircases are manufactured within 10–14 days of order confirmation. Our workshop is in Hertfordshire, about an hour from Colchester via the A120 and A12, so delivery is straightforward for both town-centre and village addresses.
Yes, we offer free site surveys across Colchester and the surrounding villages. We visit your property, take accurate measurements, talk through design and timber options, and provide a fixed-price quote.
Oak is the most popular choice for Colchester homes — it suits both period interiors and contemporary new builds. Softwood is a cost-effective alternative that can be painted or stained, and we also supply ash, walnut and other hardwoods depending on your brief.
We're a supply-only manufacturer. We design, manufacture and deliver your staircase — installation is handled by your builder or contractor. We provide all the technical documentation they'll need, and can recommend experienced installers if you don't already have one.
