I've got a similar problem. Just moved into a 1985 house, built by a
bloke that loved the 70's - with those diagonal planks.
I'd like to replace the bannister too.
I see that people like Screwfix do balustrade kits. Could I removed
the diagonal planks, and just screw a new balustrade on top of the old
"base" plank?
Otherwise to make this up to date I'd need a whole new staircase?
Have a look in Wickes. They stock all the bits & have a great Good Ideas
leaflet on stirparts.
