Stairlift Servicing

Regular servicing by qualified engineers across the West & South West

Professional stairlift maintenance

An annual stairlift service for trouble-free performance

We understand how important your stairlift is to your independence. That’s why we recommend regular servicing, at least once a year, to keep your stairlift reliable and safe. Just like an MOT for your car, a stairlift service is essential to keep this valuable mobility aid in peak condition, keeping it working perfectly and safely.

During a stairlift service, our professional stairlift engineers can identify any potential problems and make sure these are rectified. Regular servicing helps ensure your stairlift reaches, or even exceeds, its expected 10-year lifespan.

Regular servicing is an investment that helps prevent costly breakdowns and extends your stairlift’s lifespan. These complex pieces of machinery with built in safety features and many moving parts and electrical components won’t keep on working forever without appropriate care and attention.

Ensure your stairlift stays reliable, and schedule your service today.

“This is the second year I’ve had Simply Stairlifts service my stairlift. I can honestly say they are the nicest of companies. They come on time, they’re polite, presentable, efficient and very very decent! They’re not expensive yet thorough and nothing is too much for them. They say ‘any problems just call’ and if I get any problems with my stairlift I’ll be ringing them before my hubby!!
I can not recommend Brian enough!”

We are happy to offer you a tailor-made stairlift servicing and maintenance contract, even if we didn’t install your stairlift, no matter what make or model of stairlift you have.

If your lift is one of the brands we supply — Access, Handicare, Oto, or Platinum — we’ll already be familiar with it. That said, if you have a Stannah, Acorn, or other stairlift brand, we are able to offer our servicing and repair services.

A stairlift service is minimally disruptive and can usually be completed in under two hours, so when you schedule a service, you won’t be left for too long without the use of your stairlift.

We understand how vital your stairlift is for your independence, and our engineers always prioritise your comfort and peace of mind. We always arrive punctually and make sure you are comfortable while the service is underway, working quickly and efficiently to keep your stairlift healthy, happy, and on track.

“This is the first time I have used this company and I cannot praise them too highly. Their response was first class as was their service. Very reasonably priced and no aggressive attempt to sign me up to an expensive service maintenance contract – unlike the supplier of the stairlift. I would thoroughly recommend them! A special mention to the engineer Jack.”

What we check during a stairlift service

Comprehensive & cost-effective stairlift servicing

A stairlift service involves a thorough inspection of every part of the chair itself, the lift machinery, the rail, and the track. A standard stairlift service includes:

If any parts are found to need replacing or repairs carried out, our engineers will let you know and can usually carry out the remedial work straight away.

You can depend on Simply Stairlifts to keep you moving up and down the staircase for as long as you need a stairlift. When it is no longer required we can remove the stairlift, or if it becomes outdated we can install a new or reconditioned stairlift for you.

We service any make or model

You don’t have to go back to the original manufacturer or installer to get your stairlift serviced.

We work on all makes and models, including Acorn, Stannah, Handicare, and Brooks.

We cover Wiltshire, Gloucestershire, Somerset, and Oxfordshire, and in and around Bristol, Bath, Gloucester, Cheltenham, Cirencester, Newbury, Swindon, Salisbury, Reading, and Taunton.

Frequently asked questions

How often should a stairlift be serviced?

Once a year is the standard recommendation. Heavy use or an older model might warrant more frequent visits, but for most people an annual service is enough to keep things running reliably.

Most services take under two hours. Our engineers come prepared and work quickly, so you’re not without your stairlift for long.

Yes. We service all makes and models, regardless of who originally supplied or fitted them. If you’ve moved into a property with a stairlift already there, or you want to move your servicing away from the original supplier, we’re happy to take it on.

We’ll let you know on the day what’s needed and what it’ll cost. Most of the time we can sort it then and there. If a part has to be ordered, we’ll come back as quickly as we can.

If your stairlift is still under warranty, it’s worth checking the terms before booking with a third party. For stairlifts we supplied and installed, just contact us directly. For a full breakdown of what’s covered and how to protect your warranty, see our stairlift warranty guide.

We wouldn’t recommend it. Stairlifts have safety-critical electrical and mechanical components. An engineer will spot things that aren’t obvious to the untrained eye, and carrying out your own work could affect your warranty or your insurance.

At Simply Stairlifts, we install and service stairlifts across the South West of England, including Wiltshire, Gloucestershire, Somerset, Oxfordshire, Bristol, and Bath. Brian and Jack carry out all surveys and installations personally. Call 01666 822 060 to confirm we cover your area, or see our local pages for Bath, Bristol, Gloucester, Swindon, and Wiltshire.
