How Do I Know if my Stairlift Needs Servicing?

There are several tell-tale signs that show your stairlift repairs or service is overdue. Common signs are when you notice that the stairlift no longer performs as well as it used to, e.g. not as fast as it used to be, or it makes sudden stops or beeping sound continuously or occasionally , or nocking noise as it travels on some points of the track . another common sign would be unpleasant leaking small drops of oil on the track or on the stairs. If any of these signs are apparent, then it is important to get your stairlift serviced ASAP. During this time you are at the highest risk of the stairlift failing. It is our experience that the vast majority of expensive air conditioning repairs occur in systems which have not been subject to regular maintenance or servicing.

The installation of your stairlift is a major investment. Naturally, you will want to protect your investment by both prolonging the life of your lift and ensuring that the stairlift unit continue to run efficiently and economically.

How often do i need my stairlift serviced ?

Most stairlifts manufacturers recommend having a full stairlift service once a year.

Stairlift should be serviced on a regularly scheduled basis, as well as whenever you notice signs of malfunction.

We cannot overstate the necessity that stairlifts are regularly maintained. usually every 12 months  Our teams of dedicated field service engineers operate throughout northwest, Yorkshire, Midlands, Cumbria and beyond and they purely focus on both servicing and maintenance of stair lifts. Their vast experience can determine whether a particular part is near the end of its serviceability and advise that it be replaced to avoid the unit breaking down when you most need it.

There’s no ‘ifs and buts’ that the lifespan of regularly serviced stairlifts will outlast units that have been neglected. We are still servicing units that we installed over 15 years ago which run as well as they did the day they were installed. Conversely, we’ve seen the same branded units that have needed replacing after only three years due to the lack of regular servicing. 

We offer minimum 12 months warranty on virtually all of the stairlifts we install. Or repair.
