Stairlift Repairs Your Questions Answered

Quick stairlift repairs around the clock

We understand how important having your stairlift working is to independent living, therefore we prioritise stairlift repairs to make sure we get your stairlift back to full working order.

We offer comprehensive repairs including emergency call-outs, covering you 24/7, 365 days a year for complete peace of mind.

For emergency breakdowns where your stairlift is off, we would get to you the same day, often within a few hours of receiving the call (our record is getting an engineer to the front door before the customer hung up on the phone - right time, right place!). It all depends on our engineer's schedule and their location to determine who we can send as quickly as we can.

We operate a van tracking system so we can identify exactly who the closest local engineer is to you and send them to you as soon as possible.

If your repair isn't an emergency, we can normally complete these repairs within a few days of you making the call after assessing the urgency.

The importance of having an annual stairlift service

As well as carrying out maintenance, we can also do stairlift services too. A service can be thought of as preventative maintenance to help keep your stairlift in good condition which could prolong the life span of your stairlift and could prevent future call-outs. We also test the health of your carriage batteries to see if they need replacing before they run flat.

Our computer systems are set up to alert us when the schedules are for servicing stairlifts to make sure you are contacted whenever your annual servicing visit is due, so you don't need to be concerned, we'll remind you when it's due.

Stair lift warranty and service contracts

If you purchased your stairlift from us, it comes with a repair service cover included under the initial warranty that covers the repair costs - the parts, labour, and call-out charges.

Outside of this warranty period, you can choose to take out a Service and Maintenance Agreement or pay for one-off servicing and repairs whenever you need us. This applies to both a brand-new stairlift and reconditioned stairlifts. Rental models have a continuous warranty for however long you rent them.

It may work out more cost-effective to take out a service and maintenance agreement so you can keep control of the cost you pay and can budget accordingly. Contract customers get priority service over non-contract customers and many people love this because they know they are in safe hands and don't have to worry, all they need to do is pick up the phone and call for assistance.

It is recommended by British safety standards that stairlifts be serviced once a year by fully qualified engineers.

Stairlifts Spare Parts Stock

Our stairlift engineers vans carry a vast selection of the most-used spare parts for stairlift repairs, for the majority of makes and models.

All stock is logged on our computer system which they have access to so we can track down a part whenever we need to. Every spare part for a stairlift servicing or repair is logged on our bespoke computer software system so that we can locate it in an instant.

We have over 6000 spare parts on our system so inevitably our vans can't stock every part. So, we have a comprehensive parts stores and in the unlikely event that a part isn't on our van or in our stores, we can source it directly from the manufacturers for you and return to fit it for you.

If it's a simple part like a snapped key, we can send these out to customers to save on engineer fees but if it is a job that requires expert engineering then a callout will be necessary to fix your lift.
