What is the difference between elevator installation and elevator maintenance?

Elevator installation covers putting in a brand-new lift system in a building that does not already have one. Elevator maintenance covers servicing and repairing a lift that is already installed. For an existing lift, see our elevator maintenance service.

How much does it cost to install a home elevator?

Cost depends on the lift capacity, number of floors, and whether structural work like a shaft is needed. Contact us with your building details for a quote after a site assessment.

Can an elevator be added to an existing house, or only during construction?

Both are possible. Adding a lift to an existing house usually requires more structural planning to fit the shaft, while installing during construction is more straightforward. Your engineer will advise based on your building.

How long does installation take?

This depends on whether structural work is needed. A straightforward installation in a home built to accommodate a lift takes less time than retrofitting one into an existing structure.

Do you handle the electrical and safety certification for the lift?

Yes, installation includes the electrical setup and safety compliance checks needed before the lift is put into use.

Can you also maintain the elevator after installing it?

Installation and maintenance are typically separate services. Once installed, see our elevator maintenance service for ongoing servicing and repairs.
