Pricing guide
Costs are driven mainly by the balustrade system and materials chosen, with glass systems generally requiring higher material allowances and more careful handling. Installation location and complexity — for example internal stairs or raked sections — typically increase labour time, while difficult access, removal and after-hours attendance often add further cost. Engineering, council compliance or major structural reinforcement are usually excluded from base scopes and can increase the total price if required.
Material system chosen
Timber, aluminium, stainless or glass systems have very different material and handling requirements that affect cost.
Stair and raked sections
Internal stairs and raked runs usually need extra layout, cutting and finishing time compared with straight runs.
Access and removal complexity
Difficult site access, removal of an existing balustrade or tight working spaces typically increase labour and disposal effort.
Hardware and finish quality
Premium hardware, frameless glass fittings or high-aesthetic finishes require more careful installation and handling time.
Callout fee and timing
Initial attendance charges and after-hours or urgent scheduling typically raise the overall cost compared with standard daytime work.
