How
much do stairlifts cost / Prices
Stairlift
prices vary so it does pay to shop around. For new straight stairlifts
with no frills or additional extras such as powered hinge rails
or platforms prices start at around £1200-2500 this is a
ballpark figure to give you an idea of what to expect and a full
free site survey will be required to ascertain the correct price
for your stairlift and installation
Curved
stairlift prices
Curved
stairlifts are very expensive! Each stairlift is made to measure
and a full site survey free no obligation stairlift quote will
be required. As a ballpark figure curved stairlift prices range
around £3000-5000 would be a good price figure to keep in
mind
Reconditioned
Stairlift Prices
Prices
for reconditioned straight and curved stairlifts should be a lot
less than the price you would pay for a new stairlift and depending
on your needs? Without any additional extras such as powered hinge
rails you would be looking at half the price of a new stairlift.
"Your guarantee period could be less than 12 months?
You need to check with the supplier to see what Warranty and guarantees
they offer when buying reconditioned stairlifts"
Stairlift
Rental Prices
Renting
a stairlift can cut the price down and eliminate the high cost
price of buying a stairlift outright. Straight stairlift rentals
are easy to obtain from most UK stairlift suppliers. Curved stairlift
rentals are very hard to find due to the expense of manufacturing
a curved stairlift track to fit your staircase etc.
Stairlift
rental packages can vary in price? Normally a stairlift supplier
will require a small down payment for the installation of the
stairlift, followed by monthly payments for the stairlift rental.
prices range around the £10 -15.00 per week (ballpark figure)
for a straight stairlift rental plan (You need to check with the
stairlift supplier what cover they offer? Stairlift maintenance
and breakdown might not be included in the rental price
Stairlift
maintenance prices
Should
you take out the optional service maintenance plan most stairlift
suppliers offer once your guarantee has elapsed? If you are not
covered by a Maintenance / Repair Cover Plan? Repair bills can
be both inconvenient and costly
Replacing
broken or worn parts on your stairlift can often exceed the cost
of a Service Maintenance Contract and there is no guarantee that
a stairlift company will offer to send an engineer to someone
who is not on their books so to speak. Annual maintenance contracts
start at around £250-500 The lower price packages will only
give you basic cover and chances are you will need to pay for
the engineers callout, parts and labour costs
Most
stairlift companies offer a range of maintenance packages rated
by stars or colours! Obviously the more stars or metallic of colour
the higher the price but more benefits and cover you receive.
I personally would recommend that you take some type of stairlift
insurance cover out on your stairlift unless you have very deep
pockets
