Platform Lift & Home Lift
Installation Epping

Every Epping quote is worked out individually. The price depends on the height the lift must travel, the model you choose and the preparation your property needs, so a through-floor home lift usually costs less than a commercial installation. After we have assessed your home or premises, we provide a written, no-obligation quotation, with nothing to pay for the first discussion.

Usually not, because a home lift is contained inside the property and stays outside most planning rules. The exceptions in Epping involve listed buildings and conservation areas such as the High Street, Bell Common and Coopersale Street, where external alterations face tighter control. We will highlight anything that may need consent and explain the building regulations before work begins.

Three to five days is typical for an Epping installation. The lift is manufactured off site and set into a shallow 150mm pit, so there is none of the prolonged building work a traditional shaft requires. We agree the timetable with you in advance, meaning each stage is scheduled and you know exactly when your lift will be ready to use.

Yes. Epping has plenty of period housing, from the Georgian and Victorian homes along the High Street to the cottages of Coopersale, and OnLevel lifts suit them well. The 150mm pit and compact footprint allow a lift to sit beside an existing staircase with only light structural work, even in an older or unusually shaped home near the forest.

It depends on what you need. A stairlift carries one seated user along the stairs, while a platform lift travels between floors with a wheelchair, frame or scooter aboard. For many Epping households — wheelchair users especially, or larger forest-edge homes used by the whole family — a platform lift offers more independence and supports the property's long-term value.

Yes. We service and maintain every lift we install across Epping and the surrounding district, from the High Street and Bell Common out to Coopersale, Theydon Bois and North Weald. Regular servicing keeps the lift safe, reliable and compliant with the relevant standards, and our engineers are on hand whenever a repair or inspection is needed.

Not much at all. An OnLevel platform lift needs only a 150mm pit and no separate machine room, so a corner of a room or the area beside the stairs is enough. That makes it viable even in the narrower period houses near Epping High Street, where a conventional shaft-built lift could never be fitted.

Yes. Our engineers hold SafeContractor accreditation under CN8516, and every lift we install in Epping meets the EN 81-41 safety standard along with Part M of the Building Regulations and BS 8300:2018. The work is done by our own trained teams rather than subcontractors, and each lift is fully certified before we hand it over.
