Platform Lift & Home Lift
Installation Bromley

A home platform lift in Bromley usually starts around 20,000 pounds and rises with the number of floors, the finish and the cabin size. A larger family home serving three floors costs more than a simple two-stop lift. We provide a fixed written quote after surveying your property, with no obligation, so you know the full figure before any work is arranged, with nothing added later on.

An internal lift stays within the existing house and rarely needs planning permission. Bromley has several conservation areas and many period and larger family homes, so listed building consent can apply where protected fabric is affected. We check this at survey and, where consent is required, prepare the drawings and details to make the application to Bromley Council as straightforward as possible.

Most home installations in Bromley take three to five days on site once the survey and any consents are settled. A two-stop lift is quicker, while a three-storey family home or a job needing extra builder's work takes longer. We agree a firm date in advance and keep the working area tidy and the disruption to your home contained throughout the fit.

Yes. The Edwardian houses and period conversions around Bickley and Chislehurst suit our lifts well, because a compact cabin needs only a square metre or so and runs from a normal socket. We position it beside the staircase or in the hall, work carefully around original features, and where a property sits in a conservation area we agree the approach with the council before starting.

For Bromley's larger family homes a platform lift is often the better choice. A stairlift has to follow each flight and turn, while a platform lift carries you in an enclosed cabin straight up through the floors and accepts a wheelchair, a frame or a companion. It also protects the value of a substantial home, where a stairlift on the stairs can look like a stopgap rather than a lasting answer.

Yes. We service and maintain every lift we install across Bromley and the nearby areas of Beckenham, Orpington, Chislehurst, Petts Wood and Hayes. Regular servicing keeps the lift safe and meets the EN 81-41 standard for platform lifts. We offer planned maintenance contracts with priority callouts, and our own engineers carry out the visits, so the team that fitted your lift is the team that maintains it.

Less than most owners expect. A home lift cabin takes up about a square metre, close to the footprint of a small armchair, and runs from a standard socket with no separate plant room. In a Bromley family home we usually find that space beside the staircase or in a hallway, so the lift fits without losing a bedroom or disturbing the proportions of the rooms it serves.

Yes. We are SafeContractor accredited (CN8516) and use our own trained teams rather than subcontractors. Our home lifts meet EN 81-41 and our commercial lifts meet Part M and BS 8300:2018, so installations satisfy both safety and accessibility standards. Every lift is tested, certified and signed off before handover, giving Bromley homeowners and businesses a fully documented, compliant installation they can trust.
