Platform Lift & Home Lift
Installation Wigmore

The cost depends on the lift type, how many floors it serves, and the particular nature of your Wigmore property, which often means working around thick stone walls or older timber. We provide a clear written quotation with no hidden extras, so the full figure is known before any work starts. Contact us to arrange a survey and an accurate price for your home or business.

A domestic platform lift fitted inside the home is usually permitted development and needs no planning permission. Wigmore has listed buildings and sits within a sensitive landscape near its scheduled castle, however, so if your home is protected we will advise on any listed building consent required and liaise with Herefordshire Council on your behalf before installation begins.

Most domestic and commercial installations are complete within three to five working days, including delivery, fitting, commissioning and the LOLER safety inspection. Because the OnLevel lift arrives factory-built and needs only a shallow 150mm pit, a Wigmore property avoids the weeks of structural work that a conventional shafted lift would demand. The exact timeline is confirmed in your written quotation in advance.

Yes. Wigmore's stone and timber cottages have thick walls, steep stairs and sloping plots, yet our lifts need no machine room, no deep pit and only minimal structural change. We survey the building carefully, plan a route that works with its solid walls, and fit a compact unit designed to suit the real conditions of an old hillside Herefordshire home.

For many Wigmore homes, yes. A stairlift can only run along the staircase, which struggles on the steep flights common in this hillside village. Our platform lift rises vertically between floors and carries a wheelchair, frame or scooter with you, giving more independence and dignity. It also adds lasting value to the property, something a fixed stairlift rail does not provide.

Yes. Servicing is part of every OnLevel installation. Once your lift is fitted, our engineers return on a regular maintenance plan to inspect, test and certify it, and respond quickly if a fault arises. Routine servicing keeps your lift safe, smooth and compliant across Wigmore, Leintwardine, Aymestrey, Shobdon and the wider Leominster and Ludlow area.

Less than most people expect. A through-floor lift takes up roughly the footprint of an armchair and travels through a small ceiling opening, which suits the compact rooms of Wigmore's older stone and timber houses. At the survey we plan the route between floors and select a unit and position that fit your interior without sacrificing useful everyday living space.

Yes. Our engineers hold SafeContractor accreditation under CN8516, so their health and safety practices have been independently vetted. Every Wigmore lift is built to the EN 81-41 safety standard alongside Part M of the Building Regulations and BS 8300:2018, fitted by our own trained teams rather than subcontractors, and fully tested, certified and signed off before handover.
