Thursday, 12 January 2012 11:58 AM

If you’ve just moved into a new home, or are thinking of making some major changes to your house then you’ll know about the stress and worry involved in doing it yourself.

While many of us would like to think we’re master builders at heart, the reality is that there’s a lot more to renovation than just knocking down some walls and slapping on a coat of paint.

It’s vital that if you are thinking of doing some major renovation that you take the time to research all the options carefully.

One area of the home that can often be a last minute consideration when it comes to renovation is the staircase, but in fact for safety and aesthetic reasons, it should be one of the first things you consider when you’re about to renovate.

Catherine Gee with Richard Burbidge staff

If you’re about to start renovating your home and are looking for some timely advice and tips then watch our Web TV show where presenter Catherine Gee joins Mark Horrocks from Richard Burbidge, the stair parts company, to discuss their top renovation tips:

Show starts at 3.30pm on Thursday 12 January and will be available on this page.
