If you are someone who is suffering from mobility issues or joint problems, you won’t look forward to using your stairs.
With many different types of stairlifts available, from straight to curved to hinge-rail for example, there can be a difference in the cost of stairlifts between the different types of models.
At Halton Stairlifts, we offer a wide range of stairlifts suited to you and your home. The cost of stairlifts depends on a variety of factors.
In this blog, we will explore how much curved stairlifts typically cost, and what factors can impact the price of curved stairlifts.
How Much Do Stairlifts Cost?
When purchasing a stairlift your first thought is most likely about the price. The price of your stairlift depends on a range of factors, some of these factors include:
-
- Stairlift type e.g straight or curved
- Brand
- Different features
- New or reconditioned
- The length of your staircase
- The number of half landings or turns on your staircase
- Obstructions such as narrow entrances or turns
- Maintenance costs
- Insurance
Curved Stairlifts The Average Cost Single Flight £3450 – £6000 Multi-Flight £4500 – £8000 Renting a Curved Stairlift Around £100 pcm The average cost of a curved stairlift for a single flight of curved stairs is around £3,450 to £6,000 to install.
To install a new multi-flight curved stair lift, then you will need around £5500 to £8000 on average.
If you are on a budget, refurbished stairlifts may be the best option for you. Used, refurbished models can be considerably cheaper if you are on a tighter budget. The fact they are reconditioned makes them just like new.
Alternatively, you can consider renting a stairlift, which can range in price depending on the complexity of your curved stairlift, but you can expect to pay in the range of £100 a month to rent a curved stairlift. This provides a more affordable solution, you can try out a stairlift without the commitment to the full investment of purchasing new, plus you won’t have to worry about maintenance costs either.
Curved Stairlift Prices UK
Curved stairlifts are designed for staircases that have bends, corners and landings. The tracks for curved stairlifts are custom-made to fit the exact shape of your staircase.
Curved stairlifts are slightly more expensive compared to straight stairlift models. This is because more work is involved in creating the custom made stairlift tracks, to fit seamlessly with the unique bends and turns of your staircase in your home.
No two staircases are the same, and it requires a professional engineer to accurately measure the curvature of your staircase to then take that information and create tailor-made tracks.
Curved Stairlifts vs. Straight Stairlifts
Straight staircases are a lot more simpler to create and install compared to curved models. Being just one direction up and down, all a professional fitter has to do is to measure the length of your staircase.
Straight staircases have no corners, landings or turns meaning that they don’t need to be custom-made for your stairs. Without the need to factor in any curves, this is what results in curved stairlifts having a slightly higher price point.
The average starting price for straight stairlifts is around £1695, and as mentioned above curved stairlifts, start at a much higher price of £3450. This is because they are much more complex.
