Staircase Installation & Stairs in Adelaide
Staircases are precision carpentry — they must be built to strict dimensional rules in the National Construction Code for safety. This page covers new staircase installation, stair repairs, and the code requirements that make stairs a specialist job rather than a general handyman one.
Stairs are built to code
Stair dimensions — riser height, tread depth, and the relationship between them — are governed by the National Construction Code to prevent trips and falls. Balustrade height and gap rules also apply. This is why staircase work is specialist carpentry: getting the geometry right is both a safety and a compliance requirement.
New stairs and repairs
New internal staircases are custom-built to the space. Common repairs include squeaking treads, loose balustrades, and worn timber. For any new staircase or significant alteration, confirm the carpenter builds to current code.
