Frequently Asked Questions

How long does stairlift installation take?

Most straight stairlift installations are completed in half a day. Curved installations typically take a full day, since the rail has to be fitted around turns and landings. We confirm an exact timeframe during your free home survey.

Do I need any building work done before installation?

In most homes, no. The rail is usually secured directly to the stair treads rather than the wall, so there's minimal disruption. Your surveyor will flag anything unusual, such as very narrow stairs, before you commit to a quote.

Will installation disrupt my staircase for other people?

Once fitted, the seat, footrest and armrests fold away so the stairs stay usable for the rest of the household. During the installation itself, most homes only need the staircase closed off for a few hours.

Do you install stairlifts outside my local area?

We install across Essex, Suffolk, Norfolk and Cambridgeshire. See our full list of areas covered on our locations pages, or get in touch to confirm whether we cover your postcode.

What does installation cost?

Cost depends on your staircase and stairlift type. Straight installations typically cost around £2,500, while curved installations typically cost around £5,500. See our full stairlift costs guide for a breakdown by type.

Is a home survey really free?

Yes, with no obligation to buy. An engineer measures your staircase, confirms what will fit, and gives you a fixed-price quote before you decide anything.

“From the survey to the finished installation, everything was explained clearly and the engineer was in and out in an afternoon. It's made such a difference being able to get upstairs safely again.”
