Platform Lift & Home Lift
Installation Battersea

Each Battersea project is priced on its own rather than to a fixed rate. The travel height, the model chosen and the demands of a riverside duplex or a Victorian terrace near the Park all affect the figure, so a domestic through-floor lift usually costs less than a commercial installation. We survey the property first, then provide a written, no-obligation quotation entirely free of charge.

For most Battersea homes none is needed, since the lift sits entirely indoors as permitted development. With conservation areas around Battersea Park and many period houses, plus listed elements at the Power Station, external changes can sometimes require consent. We confirm where your property stands before any work begins and handle the conservation and building-regulations paperwork for you throughout.

Three to five days is typical for a Battersea installation. Because the lift arrives factory-built and sits in a shallow 150mm pit, the home avoids the weeks of shaft and masonry work a conventional lift would involve. We agree the timetable with you in advance, so each stage is planned and the completion date is clear from the very start of the work.

Yes. Many Battersea homes are flats carved from Victorian villas and mansion blocks near the Park, and an OnLevel platform lift adapts to them well. A shallow pit, no machine room and a compact footprint let the lift sit beside the stairs or within a duplex with only light work, whether the home is a period conversion or a riverside apartment.

They meet different needs. A stairlift suits one person managing a single flight without a wheelchair. A platform lift becomes the better choice as soon as a wheelchair or scooter has to reach the upper floor, since it carries both the person and the aid together. Many Battersea households choose the lift to keep a riverside or period home working for the long term.

Yes. A maintenance plan is included with every lift we install. Once a lift is fitted in Battersea, we look after it across Clapham, Wandsworth, Nine Elms and Vauxhall, returning for scheduled safety checks and ready to attend if a repair is needed. Regular servicing keeps the lift reliable and fully compliant with the relevant safety standards over the years.

Very little. The OnLevel lift needs only a shallow 150mm pit and holds no separate machinery, so a corner of a room or the space beside the staircase is usually enough. That is how it fits both the Victorian terraces near Battersea Park and the compact duplex apartments of the riverside quarter, where a conventional shafted lift could not be built.

Yes. Our engineers hold SafeContractor accreditation under CN8516, and every Battersea lift is built to the EN 81-41 safety standard alongside Part M of the Building Regulations and BS 8300:2018. The work is carried out by our own trained teams rather than subcontractors, and each lift is fully tested, certified and signed off before handover.
