woolybanana Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 I have decided to rip out the staircase from my place and replace with something sexy and modern; Can anyone give me clues as to where to source this in France, and whether it would be much cheaper to try and get one over from YouKay.Much obliged,Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierre ZFP Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Don't know what sort of thing you want but a mate in the UK recently bought and installed himself a circular staircase (from memory 1.2 M diameter 'cuz that's what building regs say) and it was way over £1000. Seen similar here in Brico Despot and Leroy Merlin for way under €1000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooperlola Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Possibly cheaper in the UK, I don't know but I can recommend this lot:http://www.univers72.com/My staircase is traditional but they do lots of modern stuff as well (assuming it was a new staircase you were after...)

woolybanana Posted June 9, 2010 Author Share Posted June 9, 2010 yes, Normie, but they seem very dear at first glance. Like you, I am broke!![;-)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NormanH Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 You could pay with an Excess card and then stop repaying.Then give them 20 quid a month interest free.I would do it...They aren't interested in repossession of a barrel, and they would be amazed that I paid anything given that they have no real idea where I am.Given my short life expectancy I hope it would be two fingers up to the bank( as opposed to any other organ) on my death bed [:P] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mint Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Is it chocolate in colour or is it of chocolate construction? And anyway, would that be milk chocolate or dark chocolate?[8-)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
