What is the most suitable timber to use for my staircase?
This depends on many factors. The main point to consider is how you wish to finish you
staircase. If you are going to carpet or tile your stair, pine stringers and triboard
treads and risers is a very practical option. If you wish to polish your stair, you have a
huge range of timbers to choose from. If you have other timber in your house, you can
choose it to match. Our specialists can help you narrow down your choices.
We also have a display stair in our showroom, made from a
range of timbers.

Once you have confirmed you would like to go ahead, we arrange a time to come onsite and
measure the space in which the stairs are to go. After calling onsite we will confirm our
final written quote is still accurate.
Will you come to site and measure our stairwell before you
make the stairs?
Yes, one of our team can come onsite to measure your staircase if the builder is not
confident in supplying us with measurements.
When can my staircase be measured?
Your staircase can be measured as soon as the upper floor framing is completed or the 2nd
floor is down.
Once ordered, how long does it take before the stairs are
ready?
We usually work on a lead time of 3 weeks, depending on our current workload. This may be
longer around public holidays.

Your staircase is usually installed after the building is closed in can be installed
before or after the stairwell is lined. Most commonly installed after the stairwell is
lined.
Do you install your stairs?
Usually builders onsite install the stairs, but our team can install your stairs for a fee
What if the stairs don't fit?
We will ensure all staircases supplied by us will fit into the stairwell we have measured.
Please refer to our guarantee.
Will the stairs squeak?
If stairs are manufactured correctly they won't squeak, and all Top Flyte stairs come with
a 7 year warranty to give you peace of mind. Our stairs are built using wedges and glue
blocks, which are then screwed into place. The wedges hold the treads and risers tight
into the housings and the glue blocks prevent movement between the treads and risers. This
stops the squeaks occurring.
