/ More than just steps

A staircase is a
structural element.

Staircases carry load, resist lateral forces, and must meet strict code requirements for geometry, strength, and safety. An undersized stringer, incorrect riser height, or missing connection detail can turn a staircase into a structural liability and a compliance failure.

METCON builds staircases as structural elements — designed by engineers, built by experienced tradespeople, and compliant with the National Construction Code. Every staircase is calculated, documented, and certified.

Whether it's a simple external concrete stair or a feature steel-and-timber staircase in a heritage renovation — structure comes first, aesthetics follow.

/ Six situations that need a proper staircase builder
New level connection in a renovation
Adding a floor or mezzanine requires an engineered staircase that meets NCC requirements.
Replacing a non-compliant existing stair
Many older stairs don't meet current codes for riser height, going, width, or balustrade requirements.
External access stairs for a sloping site
Outdoor stairs need proper footings, drainage, non-slip surfaces, and weather-resistant materials.
Commercial or multi-unit fire stairs
Fire-rated stairwells with specific width, landing, and material requirements under BCA Class 2-9 provisions.
Feature staircase in a new build
Architecturally significant stairs still need structural engineering — especially cantilevered or open-riser designs.
Staircase showing signs of structural failure
Cracking, deflection, loose connections, or corrosion in an existing staircase needs assessment and repair.

/ What we build

Every type of
staircase.

From simple utility stairs to architecturally complex feature staircases, we handle the full range of staircase construction.

01
Concrete Staircases

In-situ poured concrete stairs with formwork built to exact geometry. The strongest, most durable staircase type — ideal for internal and external applications.

02
Steel Staircases

Fabricated steel stringers, treads, and landings. Welded or bolted construction for commercial, industrial, and residential feature applications.

03
Timber Staircases

Hardwood and engineered timber stairs for residential interiors. Traditional craft combined with structural engineering for a staircase that performs and looks right.

04
External Access Stairs

Weather-resistant stairs for gardens, retaining walls, and site access. Proper footings, drainage, non-slip surfaces, and compliant handrails.

05
Fire & Emergency Stairs

Fire-rated stairwells for commercial and multi-residential buildings. Compliant with BCA requirements for width, construction type, and fire separation.

06
Balustrades & Handrails

Steel, glass, timber, and wire balustrade systems. Designed and installed to NCC requirements for height, loading, and opening restrictions.

/ Our process

Calculated to
the millimetre.

Every staircase project follows our structured five-step process. Engineer-designed, code-compliant, and documented from start to finish.

01
Step 01
Site Measure

We attend site, measure floor-to-floor heights, available plan area, headroom, and landing requirements. Every staircase starts with precise dimensions.

02
Step 02
Engineering Design

A structural engineer designs the staircase — geometry to NCC, structural sizing, connection details, and material specifications. Nothing is guessed.

03
Step 03
Construction Planning

We develop the build methodology — formwork approach for concrete, fabrication drawings for steel, material schedules for timber. Quoted line by line.

04
Step 04
Build & Install

Our team builds the staircase on site (or installs prefabricated elements). Work is checked against the design at every stage and photographed throughout.

05
Step 05
Certification & Finish

Engineer inspects, certifies compliance with NCC and structural requirements. Balustrades are load-tested. You receive full documentation for certification.

/ What you get
A staircase that's engineered —
not just assembled.

Structural drawings, NCC compliance documentation, construction photos, and engineer certification. Ready for your certifier, council, or strata.

/ Why choose METCON

Sydney's
staircase
builders.

A staircase is one of the hardest elements to build well. We've been building them for decades. Every staircase we construct is engineer-designed, code-compliant, and built to last.

Engineer-Designed

Every staircase is structurally designed — not copied from a catalogue or guessed on site.

NCC Compliant

Riser, going, width, headroom, and balustrade all checked against current National Construction Code.

Licensed Builder

Meteora Constructions Pty Ltd — fully licensed in NSW with all required insurances.

All Materials

Concrete, steel, timber, and combination staircases — we build in whatever material the design requires.

Complex Geometry

Curved, cantilevered, helical, and split-level staircases — we handle the geometry others avoid.

40+ Years Experience

Hands-on Sydney building experience going back to the 1970s.

/ Where we work

Sydney-wide staircase construction.

We build staircases across Sydney and surrounding regions — residential, commercial, and everything in between.
