What happens after you request quotes
- Tell us about your stairs (straight or curved, roughly how many steps). It takes under a minute.
- We match you with up to 3 vetted UK installers who cover your postcode.
- They contact you with prices. No obligation, and you can say no to all of them.
Before the quotes arrive, sanity-check them against two numbers. As a budget guide, straight lifts typically cost £1,500 to £3,500 fitted and curved lifts £4,000 to £10,000. For what sellers actually advertise, our UK Stairlift Price Tracker puts the median published price of a new straight stairlift at £1,995 and a new curved stairlift at £4,597.50, from prices captured on 20 October 2026.
Why compare at least three quotes?
Prices for the same staircase vary by hundreds of pounds between installers. Getting three quotes is the single most effective way to avoid overpaying, and it removes the pressure of dealing with one salesperson. If anyone pushes for a same-day decision, read our guide on avoiding pushy stairlift sales tactics first.
What a good quote should include
- The stairlift model, and whether it is new or reconditioned
- Supply and installation, itemised
- Warranty length and what it covers
- First-year servicing, and the annual cost after that
- VAT treatment: if the user has a chronic condition or disability, the quote should show 0% VAT
Could you pay less, or nothing at all?
Before you commit, check two things. First, VAT relief means an eligible buyer pays no VAT on the stairlift and its installation, which takes a sixth off a VAT-inclusive price. Second, the means-tested Disabled Facilities Grant can cover some or all of the cost, up to £30,000 in England. A quote is still useful for the grant application, so requesting one now costs you nothing either way.
Frequently asked questions
Is the quote really free?
Yes. Quotes are free and no-obligation. If you go on to buy from a partner supplier we may receive a commission, at no cost to you. Read how we make money.
How quickly can a stairlift be installed?
A straight stairlift can often be fitted within a week of the survey, in 2 to 4 hours. Curved lifts take longer because the rail is custom-made. See our installation guide.
Not sure which type you need?
Read which stairlift do I need, a plain-English walkthrough of the seven decisions a good surveyor makes before quoting.
How much should a stairlift cost?
As a benchmark, straight stairlifts typically cost £1,500 to £3,500 fitted and curved stairlifts £4,000 to £10,000. The median published price of a new straight stairlift is £1,995 and of a new curved one £4,597.50, according to our UK Stairlift Price Tracker (prices captured 20 October 2026). If a quote comes in far above these figures, ask the installer to explain the difference before signing anything.
Do I have to buy from the installers who contact me?
No. The quotes are free and there is no obligation to accept any of them. Many people use them simply to understand fair pricing for their staircase, or to support a Disabled Facilities Grant application.
