"Richard Burbidge Classic" Frequently Asked Questions
Richard Burbidge stair parts are designed with the installer in mind, with step-by-step fitting instructions. The Elements, Immix and Fusion collections can all be fitted by any competent DIY-er. However, we do recommend that only professionals install the Trademark, Classic and Heritage collections.
It’s important that stair parts are finished after installation to protect the surface and give the final touches for the best appearance. We recommend using Treatex for the finishing touches, which will protect and enhance the natural beauty of wood.
Successful finishing will depend on the correct preparation of the surface, filling of nail holes, and sanding to remove marks which will have occurred during installation.
