Platform Lifts in Epsom
OnLevel — the UK's fastest,
lowest-disruption lift solution
Epsom is a Surrey spa town at the foot of the North Downs, famous on two counts: the magnesium-rich springs that gave the world Epsom salts, discovered around 1618, and Epsom Downs Racecourse, where the Derby has been run since the eighteenth century. The spa years left a legacy of Georgian houses around the town centre, joined by Victorian and Edwardian villas near the Downs, the classic 1930s semis of Stoneleigh and West Ewell, and newer homes on the former hospital estates. Across the borough of Epsom and Ewell, more residents now need step-free access between floors.
We install home lifts, commercial platform lifts, wheelchair lifts and through-floor lifts across Epsom and Ewell — including Ewell, Stoneleigh, West Ewell, Langley Vale and Epsom Downs. Every installation is carried out by our SafeContractor accredited engineers (CN8516), and most projects are finished within 3 to 5 days.
Residential & Commercial
Platform lift solutions for every building in Epsom
Residential
Home Lift Installation
Epsom's homes reflect its spa and racing history: the Georgian houses around the town centre and Church Street, the Victorian and Edwardian villas sought after near the Downs, the inter-war semis of Stoneleigh and West Ewell, and the modern homes of the former hospital estates. As mobility changes, the staircase in any of these homes can become a daily difficulty. A home lift from OnLevel keeps you in your Epsom home rather than facing a move. The Georgian houses of the town centre and the villas near the Downs were never built around a lift shaft, but the OnLevel residential lift needs only a 150mm pit and no machine room. It fits beside the staircase or into a corner, so a period house or a Stoneleigh semi gains a lift between floors with limited structural work.

Commercial Platform Lift
Shops, offices and public buildings across Epsom — from the Ashley Centre and the High Street to Epsom Downs Racecourse and the hospital — have duties under the Equality Act 2010 to provide reasonable access for disabled visitors and staff. A commercial OnLevel platform lift is often the most practical route to compliance, without the heavy groundworks of a conventional passenger lift. We work with retailers in the Ashley Centre and along the High Street, offices around the town centre and Epsom railway station, the racecourse and Epsom Playhouse, care homes and GP surgeries across Ewell and Stoneleigh, and the businesses of the former hospital estates. Tell us about your premises and we will provide a no-obligation quotation matched to your building. Our lifts comply with Part M of the Building Regulations, BS 6440:2023 and BS 8300:2018.
Commercial platform lifts in SurreyThrough Floor
Through Floor Home Lifts
A through-floor lift rises between storeys through a compact opening in the ceiling — no external shaft, no deep excavation, no machine room. That makes it well suited to Epsom's older housing, where the Georgian houses of the town centre and the villas near the Downs leave little room for a more intrusive lift. Installation takes 3 to 5 days, even in the tighter layouts of Epsom's older homes. The factory-built lift is fixed into a prepared opening and the surround finished to match the room. Its small footprint keeps the rest of the house in use while the work is carried out.

Wheelchair & DDA Access
Wheelchair users across Epsom and Ewell — from the town centre and the Downs to Stoneleigh, West Ewell and Langley Vale — can regain independent movement between floors at home, or step-free entry to commercial premises, with a wheelchair platform lift from OnLevel. We supply vertical platform lifts for full storey-height travel and step lifts for raised entrances. Every wheelchair lift meets DDA requirements and is certified for indoor and outdoor use.

At home in any space
Built for Epsom's most
demanding buildings
From heritage conversions and listed properties to modern new builds, the OnLevel lift slots in where traditional lifts cannot go. The 150mm pit depth, self-supporting structure and bolt-together installation mean it can be retrofitted into existing buildings without major structural work — so you keep the character of the space and still deliver compliant, dignified access.
Whether the setting is a converted warehouse, a period townhouse, or a brand-new commercial fit-out, the lift becomes part of the architecture — not a compromise added after the fact.

FAQs
Platform lift questions for Epsom
How much does a platform lift cost in Epsom?
There is no standard figure for an Epsom lift — we cost each one against the project. The travel between floors, the model selected and any care a Georgian town-centre house or 1930s Stoneleigh semi needs all feed in, so a domestic through-floor lift usually comes in below a commercial scheme. After a visit to the property, you receive a written, no-obligation quotation at no cost.
Do I need planning permission for a home lift in Epsom?
Because a home lift is installed indoors, it rarely calls for planning permission in Epsom. The exceptions are listed buildings and conservation areas — among them the Georgian heart of the town and Ewell Village by the springs — where consent can apply to protected fabric. We check this before starting and take on the consents and building regulations for you.
How long does it take to install a platform lift in Epsom?
An Epsom installation is normally complete within three to five days. The lift comes built from the factory and drops into a 150mm pit, sparing the home the lengthy shaft construction of a conventional lift. We fix the programme with you beforehand, so every stage is scheduled and the finishing date is known in advance.
Can a platform lift be fitted in any age of Epsom home?
It can. Whether the property is a Georgian house off the old spa High Street, a Victorian villa near the Downs or a 1930s Stoneleigh semi, the OnLevel lift adapts to it. A shallow pit, no plant room and a slim footprint mean the car can stand beside the existing stairs with only light building work, regardless of how old the Epsom home is.
Is a platform lift better than a stairlift for an Epsom home?
It comes down to the household. A stairlift carries a single seated user up one flight, while a platform lift travels between floors with a wheelchair, frame or scooter aboard. For an Epsom home with a wheelchair user, or one of the larger villas near the racecourse, the platform lift is usually the more capable choice and helps the home hold its value.
Do you service platform lifts in the Epsom area?
Yes — once your Epsom lift is in, our team keeps it serviced and maintained, from the town centre and the Downs out to Stoneleigh, West Ewell and Langley Vale. Periodic checks make sure it stays safe, runs reliably and meets the standards that apply, and we are quick to attend if a repair is ever needed.
How much space does a platform lift need in an Epsom home?
Very little indeed. All the OnLevel lift requires is a 150mm pit, with no plant room to find space for, so it slots into a corner or alongside the staircase. That is how it manages in the snug older terraces around the clock tower in Epsom, where a conventional shafted lift would never fit.
Are your Epsom platform lift engineers accredited?
Yes. Our installation teams are SafeContractor accredited under CN8516, and each Epsom lift is built to the EN 81-41 safety standard along with Part M of the Building Regulations and BS 8300:2018. We send our own trained engineers rather than subcontractors, and every lift is certified and signed off before handover.
