Richard Burbidge supports publication of Simply Stairs

Simply Stairs, written by Mark Milner, is the Holy Grail for stair builders, offering the ultimate step by step guide to stair building.

Available early April, Simply Stairs takes readers through all aspects of planning, designing and constructing a wide range of staircases. The book is aimed at all ages and abilities, from students of carpentry and joinery, to lecturers and trade professionals looking to expand their knowledge of stair building.
 
Richard Burbidge, the stair parts experts is supporting the publication of Simply Stairs with a variety of promotional activities, as well as contributing a preface to the book, offering its expertise in the stair part market.

Kevin Jones, Technical Manager at Richard Burbidge, said: “When Mark Milner, the author of Simply Stairs contacted us in March 2013 asking for help it was easy to say ‘yes’.    

“For many years we have relied on American books, for stair building and installation. There are differences in not only how the US construct their stairs, but also the language used to describe imperial measurements for example, compared with the UK. I am really pleased that the UK market has at long last got its own dedicated, up-to-date, comprehensive guide to stair building.”

As well as offering a step by step guide to stair building, Simply Stairs features Mark Milner’s acclaimed 'Rise & Going Calculator' a unique, colourful, and easy-to-read chart, which aids stair calculations, by eliminating the need for geometry and trigonometry, making planning and building far simpler for tradesmen.
