Modern wooden staircases can be enhanced with carefully chosen glass and metal details to create a design that feels lighter, sharper and more architectural. Clear glass balustrades allow natural light to travel throughout the hallway while maintaining an open view of the timber treads and handrail. For a more defined or industrial appearance, slim metal spindles and dark powder-coated finishes provide a striking contrast against the natural grain of the wood.
These materials can be introduced subtly or used to shape the entire character of the staircase.
A wooden handrail paired with frameless glass creates a clean, understated finish, while metal balustrades can add rhythm and structure to an open-tread design. Jarrods will help you compare the available combinations and select materials that complement your flooring, furniture and wider interior. Every detail is considered together, ensuring the finished staircase feels balanced, cohesive and uniquely suited to your home.

The Natural Beauty of Modern Wooden Staircases
Modern wooden staircases bring together the warmth and character of natural timber with the clean lines of contemporary design. Thoughtful proportions, refined detailing and carefully selected finishes create a staircase that feels modern without losing the welcoming quality that makes wood so appealing. From streamlined closed-string designs to open-tread staircases with glass or metal balustrades, timber offers the versatility to complement almost any interior.
At Jarrods, every wooden staircase is designed around the individual property rather than adapted from a standard template. Our designers consider the architecture, available space, natural light and surrounding décor before developing a staircase that feels completely at home. Each component is then expertly handcrafted and finished with close attention to grain, colour and detail. The result is a distinctive modern staircase that works beautifully as part of your home while providing the strength, durability and everyday practicality you need.

Bespoke Modern Wooden Staircases Designed Around Your Home
No two homes are exactly alike, which is why every Jarrods staircase begins with a bespoke design process. Our team considers the proportions of your hallway, the flow of the surrounding rooms and the architectural character of your property before creating a design that feels completely integrated. You can tailor everything from the staircase configuration and timber finish to the handrails, newel posts, treads and balustrade.
Detailed design work allows you to explore different ideas and understand how your finished staircase will look before it is handcrafted. Whether you prefer an open-tread design that allows light to travel through the hallway or a more solid structure with crisp contemporary detailing, every element can be refined around your vision. Combining skilled joinery with modern design expertise, Jarrods creates wooden staircases that are practical, beautifully proportioned and entirely individual to the homes for which they are made.

The Benefits of Modern Wooden Staircases
Wood is an exceptionally versatile material for modern staircase design. It can be shaped into clean, architectural forms, finished in a wide choice of tones and combined with glass or metal to create a more individual appearance. Its natural grain adds subtle texture and character, preventing even the most minimalist staircase from feeling cold or impersonal. A carefully designed wooden staircase can also complement flooring, doors and fitted furniture, helping the interior feel considered and connected.
Alongside its visual appeal, quality timber provides the strength and durability needed for a feature used every day.
Its surface can be professionally finished to suit the demands of a busy household, while individual details can be tailored around the people who use the space. Whether your home calls for a light open-tread staircase or a bold design with substantial timber elements, wood offers the flexibility to create something contemporary, practical and built for lasting enjoyment.

I would like to say thank you for the job on our staircase, Jill and I are very pleased with it. We came down to your unit, up the stairs to meet you both and the stairs looked brilliant. So we were in the right place to get ours done. Gabriel and Neil did very well to go through it all with us, great. Then Chris arrived and what a job he has done here excellent from start to finish. Our lounge has been changed for the better, he was on time and left after cleaning up the site every day. He does like his cups of tea! We can’t fault the job, it’s really excellent. Regards Jill and Graham Case.
