Platform Lift & Home Lift
Installation Worcester

Most home platform lifts in Worcester fall between roughly 15,000 and 30,000 pounds, depending on the number of floors served, the finish you choose and how much building work the opening needs. A wheelchair or commercial lift is priced on its own duty and travel. We survey your Faithful City home or premises and give a fixed written quotation with no obligation, so you know the full figure before you decide.

An internal home or through-floor lift almost never needs planning permission, as the work stays inside your own walls and counts as an internal alteration. Listed buildings near the cathedral and conservation areas can be the exception, and an external wheelchair lift may need consent. We check the position for your Worcester address and tell you plainly before any work starts, handling any application if one is required.

A typical home or through-floor lift in Worcester is fitted by our own engineers in around three to five days once the survey is done and the unit is on site. Commercial installations can take longer where structural or finishing work is involved. We agree the dates with you first and work to keep disruption to your home or business in the city to a minimum throughout.

Yes. The Victorian terraces of St John's and Barbourne are some of the most common homes we work in around Worcester. Their narrow footprint suits a through-floor lift, which rises between two rooms without a separate shaft and needs only a shallow pit. We survey the floor structure and the room above, then position the lift so it serves the upstairs bedroom or bathroom with the least possible building work.

It depends on your needs. A stairlift carries one seated person along the staircase and suits someone who can transfer onto a seat. A platform lift carries a wheelchair user and their chair together, vertically, and serves anyone who cannot manage a seat or who needs to move a chair between floors. For many Worcester households needing wheelchair access, the platform lift is the more lasting answer.

Yes. We service and maintain every lift we install across Worcester, from the terraces of St John's and Barbourne to commercial sites near Blackpole and Shrub Hill, as well as units fitted by other companies. Our own engineers carry out planned visits, safety checks and any repairs, keeping your lift compliant and reliable. Cover extends out to Powick, Kempsey, Hallow and the villages around the city too.

Less than most people expect. A home lift footprint is close to that of a small armchair, and it needs only a shallow 150mm pit and no machine room. In a compact Worcester terrace a through-floor lift uses the space of a downstairs corner and the bedroom above. We measure carefully at survey and show you exactly where the lift will sit before any work is committed.

Yes. We are SafeContractor accredited under CN8516 and install to EN 81-41 for platform lifts and Part M and BS 8300:2018 for access. Every Worcester job uses our own trained teams rather than subcontractors, and each lift is tested, certified and signed off before handover. That accreditation means the work meets recognised safety and accessibility standards from the first survey through to the final commissioning.
