Quotation and Installation Process

The average cost of a stairlift in the UK depends on the type of stairlift. Straight stairlifts average at around £2000 and curved at around £4000. Other factors will also impact price such as longer staircases, narrow stairs or having more than one turn on your staircase.

The cost of renting a stairlift will vary depending on the company you choose but is typically around £12 per week. Renting a straight stairlift is more cost effective than hiring a curved stairlift. There are also other factors to consider such as the length of your stairlift.

It depends on your circumstances. If you only need a stairlift short-term then rental is likely to be the more economical option. Permanently buying a stairlift will mean you will own the stairlift which could be the correct choice for you if you or a loved one needs access to a stairlift indefinitely.

On average, a stairlift lasts for around ten years. This is all dependent on keeping the equipment in good condition and having the stairlift regularly serviced throughout its life. A well maintained stairlift could last longer than 10 years.
