Platform Lifts in Surrey — Home & Commercial Installation
Surrey is the leafy stockbroker belt, where the wooded Surrey Hills meet some of the most affluent towns in the country — Guildford with its cobbled high street and cathedral, Esher, Cobham and the gated estates of Wentworth and Virginia Water. Space and privacy define its homes.
We install across Guildford, Woking, Epsom, Reigate, Esher and Weybridge. Surrey's large detached houses, period homes and gated developments are ideal for a discreet home or platform lift that adds step-free access without compromising the property.
Surrey's market is defined by large detached homes — the gated estates of Wentworth and Virginia Water, and the substantial houses of Esher, Cobham and Weybridge. Owners here expect a lift specified to the interior, and the OnLevel system's glazed and bespoke-finish options let it sit discreetly within a high-value home while installing in days, not weeks.
The OnLevel system requires only a 150mm pit and an 850 × 850mm platform footprint, making it suitable for period properties, listed buildings, and modern developments alike. Installation completes in 3–5 days with no hot works, no welding, and no crane required. We hold SafeContractor accreditation (CN8516) and every installation is carried out to EN 81-41.
Home Lifts in Surrey
The OnLevel home lift fits through an existing floor opening with only a 150mm pit — no deep excavation required. For homeowners across Surrey it provides a quiet, reliable way to remain in a property that might otherwise require downsizing or significant structural work.

Surrey — Common Questions
Where in Surrey do you install platform lifts? ▾
We cover the whole of Surrey from our base in Chelmsford, Essex. The same Base OnLevel engineers who handle the project assessment carry out the installation — there is no local subcontracting. If you are unsure whether we cover your specific location, call us on 01245 968541 or use the contact form.
How long does a platform lift installation take in Surrey? ▾
Physical installation of an OnLevel platform lift takes 3–5 days on site. Before that, we confirm your specification and the lift is manufactured and delivered — the typical order-to-installation window across Surrey is around nine weeks. There is no excavation, no hot works, and no structural shaft required, so disruption is minimal compared with a traditional passenger lift.
Do I need planning permission for a platform lift in Surrey? ▾
Internal platform lifts generally fall under permitted development and do not require planning permission. Listed buildings and properties within conservation areas across Surrey may require listed building consent or conservation area consent. We confirm this for your specific property as part of the project assessment, so you have a clear picture before committing.
Are OnLevel platform lifts suitable for older properties in Surrey? ▾
Yes. The 150mm pit depth and 850 × 850mm footprint are designed specifically for properties where deep excavation is not feasible. This makes the system well suited to the period and Victorian housing stock found across much of Surrey, where a traditional lift shaft would require significant structural modification.
