Mr Connolly was off on his holidays and decided he wanted to come back to a new Abbott-Wade staircase.
“It’s the best thing in our house!”
Different types of staircases to bring your home to life
Home designs are becoming more and more adventurous and, here at Abbott-Wade, we are tasked with installing many different kinds of staircases, for many different reasons – perhaps as a fundamental part of a house build, to let more natural light flow through or simply to update the look of a home. Whatever your reason …
The Stroke Society Presentation
Thank you to everyone who donated and participated in our fundraising for the Stroke Association, a wonderful charity very close to our hearts. Read more here. In January 2019 our friend and designer Colin Campbell suffered a stroke. Fortunately Colin’s recovery has gone very well and Abbott-Wade & the Campbell family have now raised almost £4000 so far and counting.
We’d also like to thank the lovely Mikaela from The Stroke Association North West for coming to visit us to allow us to present the cheque for all the money raised so far.
In more fantastic news, Colin’s son Drew has been selected to run in the 2020 London Marathon representing The Stroke Association. Links to his JustGiving page are below.
Thank you for your continued support: https://www.justgiving.com/fundrai…/drewcampbell-lndmarathon

Before & After: Changing a solid balustrade to spindles
Before & After: Changing a solid balustrade for spindles
Solid balustrades are a throwback to an era of home design that most architects and homebuilders have thankfully left in the past. Solid balustrades essentially enclose the staircase as a separate dark space in the home. By opening up the balustrade using spindles, increased light flow will create the impression of additional space especially with lighter timbers such as oak or whites.
Watch: Tour an Abbott-Wade Frameless Glass Staircase Installation
An Ultra-Modern Frameless Glass Staircase
Abbott-Wade offer a range of glass staircases with embedded or clamped 10mm clear glass being a popular choice. For a super-modern minimalist style we also offer Frameless Glass options on new staircases such as this one. Our 15mm glass can be paired with oak or with a stained or painted finish on the stairs. Tour this recent installation over three storeys to see for yourself how the unobscured glass opens up the entire stairway and consider how a similar installation could transform your own home.
Add a contemporary look to your home with a glass staircase
Trends are evolving all the time as people get more and more creative with their interior design, and this has been marked by the rise in popularity of the glass staircase. Not considered a glass staircase before? They come with a host of benefits – come and see for yourself…
