The average price of a straight stairlift for a standard 13 step staircase is around £2,000. Narrow stairs, longer staircases and choice of straight stairlift manufacturer may increase the price.
After the cost of installation, it will cost you below £10 a year to run the stairlift via your electricity.
If your stairlift requires a repair then the call-out fees will be covered within the maintenance contract you have with us, this is included when you buy a new stairlift. With new and reconditioned stairlifts you will also have a warranty that covers you for a year. We advise that you check the expiry date of both the maintenance contract and warranty to ensure your stairlift has adequate cover. Extended warranties are available from stairlift manufacturers upon request.
Curved stairlifts cost more to manufacture than straight stairlifts, the rail curves around the staircase and this creates a more specialist product to ensure that it fits your staircase. they are often manufactured specifically to the dimension of each individual staircase.
Stairlift batteries although rechargeable will need replacing after a while, due to being unable to set exact dates on replacement generally lasting between 3-5 years we recommend a replacement on your four-year service to ensure the reliability of your stairlift.
In the event of a power cut in your home, your stairlift will beep for a short while to warn you of the fact it is no longer on a charge, it will still work for around ten journeys whilst the power is off although we recommend switching it off temporarily whilst the stairlift is unable to charge.
Typically, you won’t need stairlift insurance if your stairlift is within the warranty period. However, if your stairlift is out of warranty you can opt for an extended warranty with the manufacturer or buy mobility equipment insurance, which covers stairlifts, from a 3rd party provider.
There are currently no stairlift grants, however, you can check if you are eligible for a Disabled Facilities Grant. These are partially funded by your local council and will help cover the cost of stairlift installation.
