Take a look at how our bespoke stairs, railings and balconies have been used on projects across the world.
We can design and produce the perfect straight staircase for you, whether it’s a traditional Victorian cast, a splendid staircase in wood or even a combination or kited option.
We offer a broad range of bespoke, made to measure, steel, wrought and cast iron railings all individually fabricated in the UK to individual customer specifications.
We are extremely proud of our non-ferrous foundry in Staffordshire which over the last 50 years has established a fine reputation for quality and reliable cast aluminium castings not only in our industry but within the car and aerospace manufacturing, engineering and pottery industries around the country.
Embarking on the search for a bespoke spiral staircase was a daunting prospect. I had zero experience in this area and knew a mistake would be costly, and painful.I searched online for weeks and eventually found three suitable suppliers, two in London and British Spirals & Castings. Immediately the responsiveness and level of detail from Ben gave me comfort that they were were experienced and motivated to help. He made the whole design and quoting process so simple, when the quote came back around half the price of the other two companies, it was a no brainer.Now the stairs are installed, around 4 months from point of first contact I can firmly say I made the right choice. Ben, Richard and Joe were remarkably patient throughout the process, and were a lovely family business to deal with. The installation team were brilliant, friendly, respectful, punctual and a credit to the company.I'm delighted with the outcome and more than happy to provide references for anyone considering working with BS&C. You will not be disappointed.Martin F

The first real family business I've come across: I was first helped by Richard and later his daughter, Antonia, finished our order. Both were friendly and incredibly helpful throughout: Richard even sourced a stonemason for us when ours fell through. Communication throughout was easy and speedy. Diagrams of the project were provided so we could fully understand every detail of the project. Their installation team, led by Kostas, had to reinforce our wall so that the railings would stay in place -this to correct another company's shoddy work - but they did so without complaint and for no extra money. They have transformed our front garden and we recommend them without hesitation.

British Spirals & Casting have produced and installed really stunning railings on my roof top terrace. They have been excellent in their customer service from the very start to finish.

After lots of research and phoning around, Ben and his dad Richard stood out with their knowledge, experience and 'can do' attitude. My staircase project was a tight fit and I was reassured throughout by their ability to answer any question or resolve any concern I put to them. I'm absolutely delighted with the end result and would thoroughly recommend British Spirals and Castings if you want a beautifully made, quality product.Thanks for all you help and guidance on the project and I wish you all well for the future.

I would thoroughly recommend BSC and I am delighted with the service I received from start to finish. The challenge was to design, manufacture, and install a balcony that was in keeping with my period property.The quality of their designs and 3D CAD drawings ensured planning approval success and passers-by have commented on how elegant the balcony looks.I was also hugely impressed by the dedication of the fitting team who worked in all weathers to ensure a high quality installation that was completed within the agreed timescales.Thank you so much BSC for my beautiful balcony that I can enjoy for years to come!

My project required a spiral stair to a first floor level concrete balcony, plus balustrade for the balcony. The project took about 4 years from start to finish, and BSC were involved for most of that time. At all times, Ben Harding at BSC was very helpful in providing advice, plus specifications and drawings for the building warrant application. The finished stair kit arrived in perfect condition and on time, and assembly proved to be straightforward. One small error in fabrication of a baluster railing was rectified and the correct part delivered within 24 hours. The completed stair and balustrade are of high quality and look terrific. Altogether, I am very pleased with this company and their product and would recommend them without hesitation.

I have nothing but positive things to say about this company. My staircase project had various complexities and a lot of different parts to get just right, which they patiently assisted with.The end result surpassed my already high expectations in terms of build quality and accommodation of my requirements. Combined with good value for money for the effort involved, I highly recommend BritishSC.

These guys are amazing!Friendly and professional right through from beginning to end, with expert advice along the way and also their delivery driver and their recommended fitter Kostas and his fantastic team installing the Victorian style spiral stairs.I love how this is a family run business, keeping to traditional methods of manufacturing at an original factory. This is what inspired me to use them.Thanks to you all at British Spirals and castings, we are so pleased with how our spiral stairs look. Great job!

BSC supplied me with a Victorian Spiral staircase which has now been installed and looks stunning and very authentic. I am extremely pleased with the product and the entire experience of dealing with BSC has been a pleasure from the beginning to the end of the project. Ben has provided guidance on how to ensure the staircase fits perfectly, took the time to show me their products in person in their workshop, answered multiple (and I really mean very many) questions from me and my builders patiently and thoroughly, designed the staircase to our specifications, provided customised solution for the nosing/edging- nothing was too much trouble.The end product is stunning, the delivery was on schedule with a lovely, friendly driver who carried the pieces in with our help, the service was fantastic.I am hoping to use BSC again this time for some balconies.Would highly recommend BSC to anyone who appreciates attention to detail and quality of design and product.

Excellent experience throughout. Both Ben and his father gave expert, thoughtful advice both re: design, materials and fitting. They also ensured a swift turn around and we are absolutely delighted with the finished stair case. We would not hesitate to use the company again in the future. Full marks.

We are really happy with the staircase that British Spiral Castings designed, manufactured and installed to access our basement flat in London - it was a tight spot and stairs fit perfectly. It was so refreshing to deal with a company that, from the minute they arrived to take measurements, through to the team that installed the stairs, were a delight to work with.

This firm is the opposite of 'jobsworth', whatever that is. Everything I asked of them, it was an immediate "Can do!". Helpful, friendly and local (for me). They produce a bespoke, high quality product at a reasonable price. You may find what you're looking for a bit cheaper (or not) elsewhere but you'll regret it. It won't be this quality. Timing is always a problem with bespoke but they kept me advised every step of the way and it was unnecessary for me to chase them. Before delivery they put my steps together as a 'dry run' to check fit and sent me photos of how it was put together - very useful. Construction was a breeze and the finished effect is exactly what I wanted. I cannot praise this family run firm highly enough. Well done!

I've just had a cast-iron Victorian balcony fitted outside my bedroom French windows to replace a small Juliet balcony. When I first wanted to do this I didn't know where to start. Many firms didn't seem very interested. Some would make it but not fit it.When I finally found BS & C from the beginning they were very helpful. They guided me through the choices, types, designs, construction and safety.The team who installed it were excellent. They helped out with things outside their domain such as moving lights that were in the way etc.They couldn't have been nicer or more friendly.If you want to undertake a project like this and are a little nervous, go with this company!

Absolute pleasure to deal with BSC. They supplied us with a balcony and spiral staircase as well as loads of help and advice in designing what works best for our space. The quality of the product is fantastic and now assembled it looks amazing. Throughout Ben and his team were so helpful, from our initial website enquiry through to making sure we were happy at every stage. They provide a fantastic British product which we're proud to have as part of our house.

Absolutely delighted with the quality and craftmanship of the spiral staircase and ballustrade designed and produced by this very talented bunch. We needed access to mezzanine gallery that would meet with building regulations and be aesthetically pleasing as it was going to be a feature of the interior. We live in Dorset and came across British Spirals and Castings by accident. We are so pleased we did. Thank you Ben and Joe.

This firm contributed to a reconstruction of the front approach to our Victorian house in a conservation area in Highgate, North London. They were very nice to deal with. They provided and installed handrails for two lots of steps, and a Victorian-style balustrade. The products were of excellent quality, they did all the work to a very high standard, and we are delighted with the result..

I recently had a cast iron stair rail made and fitted to my period home. The stairs are narrow and not quite straight which meant that a lot of work had to be done on site. They also had to meet local building regulations (with which they were familiar) and it was done absolutely correctly. I was was truly delighted with the professionalism, service and quality of the work done and the stair rail (which matches the period of the property) look wonderful and has had many admirers from the local community.This is well-organised family business who know what they are doing, respond quickly and and charge a very fairly. I would highly recommend them for any wrought iron or steel work that you want done.

I can't recommend British Spirals and Castings highly enough. They supplied and fitted a beautiful exterior spiral staircase to our home in central London. From their initial visit, through casting the staircase to the installation, the service was impeccable. A family business, run with real pride and a quality product.
