Case Study – Transforming Staircases with Oak Over-Cladding

Posted October 8, 2025 by Litchfield Floor Renovations

If you’re looking to breathe new life into your home without the disruption of a full renovation, over-cladding your staircase could be the perfect solution. At the heart of our work here at Litchfield Floor Renovations is the art of transforming tired, dated staircases by over-cladding them – most commonly with beautiful, durable oak.

Over-cladding is a smart, efficient process where new timber elements are carefully fitted over your existing staircase structure. This technique not only saves time and cost compared to a full replacement, but also delivers a dramatic visual upgrade.

Oak, with it’s timeless grain and natural warmth, is a favourite amongst homeowners for good reason. Available from Scandinavian white washed through to darker antique tones, Oak cladding can suit both modern and traditional interiors and adds an instant sense of quality and character.

Each project is tailored to the staircase and style of the home, ensuring a seamless finish that feels like it was always meant to be there. From steps and risers to handrails and spindles, every detail is considered to bring out the best in the space. If you’re considering a staircase makeover, oak over-cladding offers a stunning and lasting transformation – turning a purely functional feature into a true focal point of your home.
