Timber staircases in Uluwatu

Planning a staircase in Uluwatu? Carpenter Bali builds floating stairs, timber stair cladding and railings for villas and homes in Uluwatu.

Timber staircases in Uluwatu

A staircase is often the first thing you see in a villa. We build floating stairs with solid teak or merbau treads, clad concrete stairs in timber, and make complete timber staircases for lofts and mezzanines.

We combine timber with steel stringers, glass balustrades, rope or slatted railings to suit tropical-modern, industrial or classic Balinese interiors — always designed for safety and stability.

Local conditions: Uluwatu

Uluwatu is drier than the rest of south Bali but exposed to strong sun, wind and salt spray on the cliffs. Outdoor joinery needs UV-resistant finishes, stainless fixings and timber chosen for weather resistance.

Popular styles in Uluwatu

Uluwatu style is coastal and raw: natural timber, limestone, concrete, rattan and bold indoor-outdoor living with ocean views.

Homes & projects in Uluwatu

The Bukit has seen a boom in modern villas, surf retreats and boutique hotels, many built with open-plan living, big glass doors and extensive outdoor decking.
