Platform Lift & Home Lift
Installation Pershore

A domestic through-floor or home lift in Pershore typically falls between roughly twelve and twenty-five thousand pounds, depending on the travel height, the carriage size and the finish you choose. Commercial platform lifts vary more widely with the rise and the compliance work required. We always carry out a free survey of your Wick, Pinvin or town-centre property first, then issue a written, fixed quotation so the figure is clear before anything is ordered.

Most home lifts in Pershore need no planning permission, because they are installed inside the existing house and do not change its external appearance. The work falls under the Building Regulations rather than planning control. If your property is listed or sits within the Pershore conservation area around the Abbey and the Georgian High Street, extra consent can apply, and we will flag that during the survey and help you with any approvals needed.

A typical domestic lift in Pershore is installed within three to five working days. The unit arrives factory-built and pre-tested, so most of the time on site goes into forming the floor opening, fitting the rails and finishing the surround. Larger commercial platform lifts on Bridge Street or in the town's business premises can take a little longer where building work is involved, but we confirm the exact schedule in your written quotation beforehand.

Yes. The elegant Georgian houses around the Abbey and the High Street suit a through-floor lift well, since it rises neatly in a corner without a separate shaft or machine room. Because the unit needs only a shallow 150mm pit, the original floor structure stays largely intact. We survey the room layout first to choose the best position, then finish the surround so the lift respects the proportions of the gracious period interior.

It depends on your needs. A stairlift suits someone who can transfer to a seat and simply wants help up the stairs. A platform lift is the better choice where a wheelchair must travel between floors with its user aboard, or where two people wish to ride together. In a larger Wick or Fladbury home with the space available, many owners prefer the platform lift for its capacity, comfort and the way it settles quietly into the room.

Yes. We service and maintain every lift we install across Pershore, from Wick and Pinvin to Wyre Piddle, Drakes Broughton and Fladbury, as well as units fitted by other companies. We offer annual maintenance contracts covering the statutory safety checks, and our engineers carry common spares to resolve most issues in a single visit. Being locally based, we reach Pershore and the surrounding Wychavon villages quickly when a callout is needed, with no long waits.

Less than most people imagine. A compact home lift takes up roughly the footprint of a small armchair, around 0.9 by 0.9 metres, and needs only a 150mm pit rather than deep excavation. In a Pershore house it usually fits into a corner of the lounge or hallway. During the survey we measure both the lower and upper rooms to confirm the platform aligns cleanly and leaves comfortable room to move on each floor.

Yes. We are SafeContractor accredited (CN8516) and our home lifts are installed to EN 81-41, with platform lifts meeting Part M and BS 8300:2018. We use our own trained teams rather than subcontractors, so the same engineers who survey your Pershore home see the job through. Every lift is tested, certified and signed off before handover, and we give you the full documentation along with a clear maintenance plan for the years ahead.
