Tips on how to pick the best stairlift installer
The cheapest isn’t always the best.
A stairlift is a significant purchase with most stairlifts costing in excess of €1,999. A stair lift can also be a vital aid to help your elderly parent, relative, or a friend to remain independent and safe. It is therefore essential that you pick the best stairlift and the best stairlift installer. Below are a few key areas to consider before choosing your stair lift installer.
Tips for picking the best stairlift
Assessment is key to getting the right stairlift to suit your stairs and more importantly, your needs. Our network of stairlift installers will always conduct a free home visit and assessment before furnishing a quote. This ensures that what you are quoted is what you will pay.
Some companies will quote over the phone but in reality, you cannot see the full picture without physically inspecting the premises. In many cases, the home assessment will highlight issues that may have been easily overlooked.
An experienced stair lift surveyor can also offer advice in regard to getting the best stairlift to suit your needs both now, and in the future.
When you get your quote make sure it includes all work carried out and inclusive of VAT. If you are applying for a grant, you may need to furnish up to 3 quotes but your grant will only cover the amount quoted. Should you elect to go with an installer and extra charges are added, the grant will not cover that. Always make sure the cost you are quoted is what you will pay.
There are many stairlift installers in Ireland; some with extensive experience and outstanding reputations, and others who have neither. Stair lift installation in Ireland is unregulated meaning anybody can become an installer – with little or no training. When choosing a stairlift installer always ensure they are reputable and won’t leave you high and dry once they have been paid. Our stairlift partners offer dedicated aftercare and warranties with their stairlifts, providing extra peace of mind.
Stairlifts, when purchased privately, are taxable at the 23% VAT rate. This VAT can be reclaimed in its entirety as long as the installer is VAT registered with a VAT number. County Councils will only approve grants that are being paid to VAT registered installers with VAT clearance certificates, so always ensure your installer is VAT registered and can provide a copy of their VAT clearance form.
All of our installation partners are professionally trained and work to the highest standards. The level of professionalism shown by a company is a good indicator of the product and service you will receive.
Tips for picking the best stairlift
New or second hand
When you purchase a used stairlift, that stairlift has been designed to fit another staircase and then taken out and adapted to fit yours – this may require using parts from other stairlifts rather than a single seamless track. This can affect the ride and the overall quality of the stairlift, not to mention the life span. It is also worth noting that stairlifts run on batteries, and once the cells in a battery die, the battery needs to be replaced and this is quite costly.
Warranty
Most new stairlifts come with a warranty, this is usually between 1 and 2 years and offers you extra peace of mind. A warranty, however, is only as good as the company that provides it so make sure you pick a reputable company that you trust. Don’t be afraid to ask how long they are in business, or if they can provide a reference.
Aftercare
Aftercare is a vital part of your stairlift purchase. You need to ensure you choose a company that you trust to be there in the event of a problem. Stairlifts have mechanical and moving parts so they will need to be serviced, repaired, or replaced.
Size matters
Always be conscious of how much a stairlift will obstruct other users on the stairs. Stairlifts are becoming slimmer and this means they will pose less obstruction for other stair users.
