bannisters/stair hand rails...where & who ?
 

I need a new bannister/hand rail for my hall way (we took the old one down when re-dcorating & havent finished it:o) so I need to know where I can get one - nothing special , how much they cost and who can fit one - the sooner the better really as my other half is nearly 9months pregnant and struggling up and down the stairs - would also like one for when baby has arrived to make going down the stairs safer...

so who can help ?


many thanks

When I was refurbishing a terraced property in 1980, I had a stair handrail replaced by the joiner who I had contracted for all the joinery work.
So I think that you will find that any joiner worth his salt could do it.

thanks for that but I am still looking for where the best place to get one and how much it would cost to fit..

wicks do them just take a look at their website,i think its around £25 for the wood and there is a choice of attachments,hope this helps

Easy to fit now, you don't need to put wood wedges into the wall like they used to be fitted, you can get mounts now that just use 3 screws/mount.
Strip any paint off the old one, sand down, light coat of varnish and they keep a real nice shine on them with people rubbing their hand on them

when we began to strip the wall paper it was taken off the wall and disposed of ..
