Cornwall LivingIssue #133

Ten years after

A family-run business that has built upon a solid foundation to provide bespoke handrail systems throughout Cornwall.

When Bruce and Charlie Davis laid the foundations for Kestrel Specialist Handrail Systems, little did they know how the business would develop into the thriving enterprise that it is today. From originally supplying off-the-shelf solutions, Kestrel has since begun to offer a little more – something more bespoke. As the years passed, with Katie and Bruce Grant taking the reigns, they have taken the business in their own direction, building up a reputation through hard work with an ear to customer satisfaction.

Working predominately in Cornwall, the focus has been on offering a supply and installation service, giving customers as little or as much support as they need throughout the process. This begins from the first phone call, via an on-site visit to regular discussions as the installation progresses. They’ve worked on maintaining a high-quality product over the years, building great relationships with their suppliers, many of whom they’ve used from the outset.

They love what they do, as Katie explains: “We’ve had some favourite projects over the years, be it the location, a particular customer or an exciting design. One such example was a recent contemporary new-build by a bespoke property developer. The project was particularly interesting for us, as we undertook several areas of work, including a Juliet balcony, internal glass guarding, balustrades and a chic stainless handrail for the steps. We also created a striking stainless down pipe guttering, which was made entirely to order.” She continues, “Living and working in Cornwall allows us the privilege of being in a unique part of the country and to appreciate what people want. We have wonderful views that we need to make the most of and we are happy to make sure that our customers enjoy theirs to the fullest!”

They continue to be a small team – with Katie focussing on administration with support from sister-in-law Cathy, while Bruce and James are out and about installing. So, whatever the scope of your project – whether large or small, contemporary or more traditional – why not see what the team at Kestrel Specialist Handrail Systems can do for you?
