Bespoke Steel Staircases
T Brown & Sons Ltd designs and fabricates bespoke steel and metal staircases for residential, commercial and architectural clients across Watford, London and the Home Counties. Established in 1955, we are a fourth-generation family business with a long-standing reputation for quality welding and metal fabrication. Every staircase we produce is made to order, built to the exact dimensions and specification of the project, and finished to a standard that reflects decades of hands-on craftsmanship.
Whether you need a striking feature staircase for a contemporary home, a robust steel structure for a commercial building, or a period-appropriate design for a heritage refurbishment, our team has the skills and experience to deliver the right result.
Fabricated in Our Workshop, Installed On Site
All of our steel staircases are fabricated in our fully equipped Watford workshop before being installed on site by our own team. This approach gives us full control over quality at every stage. Stringers, treads, handrails and balustrade components are cut, formed and welded with precision before the finished assembly reaches the project location.
For clients working to tight tolerances or sequential build programmes, we plan our installations carefully so that the steelwork integrates correctly with surrounding structures. Our welders are experienced working across a wide range of environments, from occupied homes to active commercial sites, and we manage each visit to minimise disruption throughout.
Residential Steel Staircases
For homeowners and interior designers, a bespoke metal staircase can become one of the defining features of a property. We work closely with clients to develop designs that suit the space, the existing architecture and the intended look and feel of the finished interior or exterior.
Common residential staircase requests include straight and helical steel staircases, open-tread designs with timber or metal treads, floating staircase structures, and external access staircases for gardens, terraces and outbuildings. All metalwork is produced to the specific requirements of the project, with finish options including primer and paint, powder coating, galvanising and natural or brushed steel.

Commercial and Architectural Staircases
For contractors, developers and architects working on commercial schemes, we provide structural steel staircases built to specification and compliant with relevant standards. Our work in this area spans office fit-outs, retail and leisure developments, mixed-use schemes and industrial buildings across London and the surrounding counties.
We understand the demands of commercial projects, including programme constraints, co-ordination with other trades and the need for clear, reliable communication throughout. Our team works in a straightforward, practical way, keeping clients informed and ensuring the steelwork is ready when it is needed.
