Straight or curved
The biggest factor on a stairlift by a distance. A straight rail is cut from stock and fitted in two to four hours. A curved rail is manufactured to your staircase, which takes three to five weeks and costs substantially more.

Staying In The House You Chose In Wisconsin
Most people cannot name the product they need, and there is no reason they should. Point at the part of the house that has become difficult and we will tell you what goes there.
Individuals & familiesWhich Part Of The House Is The Problem In Wisconsin?
Point at a room.
The front door
Steps up to the door, a threshold that catches a wheel, a door too heavy to hold open.
The stairs
The bedroom and the proper bathroom are upstairs, and the stairs have become a decision several times a day.
The bathroom
Getting in and out of the bath or shower, and standing up again. Most falls at home happen in this room.
Moving around inside
Getting out of a chair without help, and getting from room to room without holding the furniture.
Getting in the car
The chair will not go in the trunk, or getting into the seat has become the hard part of every trip.
For school districts and transit agencies
Keeping Lifts And Bus AC Running In Wisconsin
Wheelchair lift preventive maintenance, securement service and bus air conditioning, scheduled in your yard around your routes, with a digital record per unit rather than per bus.
Government & transitOn A Bus, This Is What We Get Called About
Districts and transit agencies across Wisconsin call us about three things. Point at whichever is costing you buses.
The air conditioning system
Roof units front and rear, working hardest on short routes where the door opens every few minutes. It is usually the first thing to fail in May, and the students who cannot tell you they are overheating are the ones sitting under it.
The wheelchair lift
Cycled several times a day by drivers who were trained once. Most failures we find are wear and adjustment rather than a broken part, which is exactly what preventive maintenance catches.
Securement inside
Tracks, retractors, and occupant restraints. Worn webbing and the wrong attachment point are the two things we find most, and neither shows up until it matters.
For care communities and senior living
Everything That Moves A Resident In Wisconsin
Ceiling track and patient lifts, resident mobility equipment, bathing and adult changing, building access, and free on-site tune-up clinics for equipment residents already own.
Healthcare & senior livingWhich Part Of The Community Is The Problem In Wisconsin?
From the front door to the shuttle in the lot. Point at whichever is causing you trouble.
Entrances and common areas
Doors a resident cannot pull open, thresholds that catch a caster, a few steps into a dining room or activity space.
Resident rooms
Transfers between bed, chair, and bathroom. This is where staff injuries come from, and where the right equipment pays for itself twice.
Bathing and changing
The room where most falls happen, and where adult changing needs are the gap families notice first.
What residents use daily
Chairs, scooters, walkers, and seating, whether the facility owns them or the resident brought them from home.
Getting residents out
Appointments, outings, and family visits. The bus or van is part of the building as far as a resident is concerned.
For drivers and passengers
Getting In The Car, And Driving It, In Wisconsin
Hand controls, left foot accelerators, passenger brakes, transfer seating, wheelchair and scooter lifts, securement, and wheelchair accessible vehicles. Most people assume they have to buy a van. Usually they do not.

A Wheelchair Accessible Van For Under $40,000
A wheelchair accessible minivan cost about $40,000 three years ago. Today it is $70,000 and up.
So we stopped selling them. Instead you buy a high-roof van from a dealer at a normal price, and we install the wheelchair lift and securement for under $12,500. Most people end up between $32,500 and $42,500 for everything.

Who We Work With In Wisconsin
Six different people find this page looking for six different things. Start with whichever one is you.
01
Homeowners and families
Stairlifts, ramps, grab bars and bathroom safety so somebody can keep using the whole house. Free survey at your address, and a written quote before anything is ordered.
02
Adult children arranging it
Often organizing this from another state for a parent who did not ask for help. We will talk to you, survey the house, and tell you honestly what is needed and what is not.
03
Veterans and the VA
A federal contractor and approved vendor to the VA. We cannot tell you what the VA will pay for, only what we have supplied before, and how to request us by name.
04
School districts and transit
Wheelchair lift preventive maintenance and bus air conditioning, scheduled in your yard around your routes, documented per unit rather than per bus.
05
Care and senior living
Ceiling track, patient lifts, resident equipment and free on-site tune-up clinics for equipment residents already own, whoever sold it.
06
Businesses and public buildings
ADA audits with measured findings and a costed path, plus the work itself: ramps, door operators, platform lifts and accessible counters.
Worth knowing before you call anybody
How Wisconsin Regulates This Equipment
Stairlifts and platform lifts need no state license here. Elevators do.
Wisconsin does not require a state elevator license for a stairlift or a vertical platform lift, which makes a platform lift a considerably simpler job here than in most states. Worth knowing before you rule one out on paperwork grounds. Elevators fall under the state program.
Local building permits can still apply, and we pull them.
Where a local building permit applies, we pull it rather than leaving it to you.
This is our own licensing review rather than legal advice, and rules change. We confirm the current requirement for your address before we quote.
- Licensing held in our own name
- Not borrowed from a subcontractor
- Permits and inspection handled by us
- Confirmed for your address before quoting
What A Stairlift Or Ramp Costs In Wisconsin
We will not publish a number, because the honest one depends on your staircase and your entrance. What we can do is tell you exactly what moves it, so you can judge a quote from anybody.
Rise and run
A ramp is priced by length, and length is set by the rise. Roughly twelve inches of run per inch of rise, plus landings. Past about two feet, a platform lift usually takes less room and less money.
Site preparation
A concrete pad, a power run, or blocking behind a wall. This is where a job gets longer as well as dearer, and it is what a photograph on a website can never tell you.
Capacity and seating
Lifts run from 300 lb to 600 lb, and clinical seating on a power chair is frequently more than the chair under it. Both are specification rather than upsell.
Indoor or outdoor
Weather-rated equipment costs more and is not optional outside. An indoor unit put outdoors fails within a season and we will not fit one that way.
The survey is free, the quote is written, and the price you agree to is the price of the job. Sometimes the honest answer is a two hundred dollar grab bar rather than a twelve thousand dollar lift, and we will say so.
Everything We Install And Service In Wisconsin
The full range travels with the technician. Wisconsin regulates home elevators, so that is what we point you elsewhere for rather than take on and work out later.
Stairlifts
Straight, curved, and outdoor stairlifts, measured, installed, and serviced by credentialed technicians.
Vertical Platform Lifts
Wheelchair platform lifts for homes, businesses, and outdoor entrances.
Home & Commercial Access
Ramps, automatic door openers, ceiling lift tracks, and access infrastructure for homes and businesses.
Mobility & Medical Equipment
Power mobility, complex rehab and seating, standing frames, showering and changing equipment, patient lifts, and home medical. Configured by ATPs and CRTS on staff.
Vehicle & Driving Solutions
Scooter and wheelchair lifts, hand controls, left foot accelerators, passenger brakes, transfer seats, securement, and fleet lift and bus air conditioning service.

How The Work Happens
Five steps. You can stop at any of them, and nothing is charged until you have said yes to a written scope.
-
1 You tell us what is difficult
Not what product you think you need. The stairs, the front step, the bath, getting into the car. Working out the product is our job.
A call, not a sales pitch -
2 We come out and measure
On site, at your address, free. We check the space, the power, and the structure, and we talk through how the room actually gets used.
Free, and no obligation -
3 You get it in writing
An itemized scope and a price, with the lead time stated honestly. The price you agree to is the price of the job. Take as long as you like with it.
The price does not move -
4 Our technicians install it
Our own people, not a subcontractor, who stay until everyone who has to operate it can operate it confidently.
Our own crews -
5 We service it afterward
The company that installed it is the company that maintains it. You are not handed to somebody else once the invoice clears.
Same company, years later
What People Ask Before They Call
Turn a card over.
The Credentials Behind The Work
Anybody can sell equipment. Installing it legally, configuring it clinically, and servicing it afterward takes credentials that have to be earned and kept current. Here is what our team holds.
Elevator Mechanic
State Elevator Mechanic Licenses
Licensed elevator mechanics, state by state. Residential elevators and platform lifts are regulated work in most jurisdictions, and this is the license that makes it legal to do.
ATP
ATP, Assistive Technology Professional
RESNA-recognized credential for evaluating a person's needs and specifying the assistive technology that fits. This is who you want configuring a power chair or a seating system.
CRTS
CRTS, Complex Rehab Technology Supplier
The credential for supplying individually configured complex rehab. It is what separates a supplier who works alongside your clinical team from one who ships a box.
CAPS
CAPS, Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist
Training in modifying a home so someone can stay in it. It is the difference between installing equipment and understanding the house it goes into.
MSE
Mobility Service Excellence
Industry service certification covering installation, maintenance, and repair standards across mobility equipment.
EPA 609
EPA Section 609
Federal certification for handling refrigerant in vehicle air conditioning. It is required to legally service a bus AC system, and it is why fleet work is something we can actually take on.
Questions About Service In Wisconsin
Do you actually work in Wisconsin, or do you subcontract it?
We work it. Every technician we have is our own and every one of them is mobile. There is no local outfit doing the job with our name on the invoice.
My town is not on your list. Do you still come?
The list is a starting point rather than a boundary. Call and tell us the address. Mobile service means the question is scheduling, not territory.
How soon can somebody come out?
Tell us the situation when you call. Emergencies and equipment failures are handled differently from a survey for a project someone is planning for the spring, and we will be honest about the difference rather than promise the same day to everybody.
Do you handle fleet work in Wisconsin as well?
Yes. Wheelchair lift preventive maintenance, securement service, and bus air conditioning for school districts and transit agencies, on contract, with records produced at the visit.
Is the consultation free here too?
Everywhere. Someone comes out, measures, and tells you what it would take. No charge and no obligation.
Will you service equipment you did not sell?
Usually, depending on the platform. Send us the make and model and we will tell you honestly before you book anything. Plenty of our service work is on equipment somebody else installed.
How fast can somebody get to me in Wisconsin?
A straight stairlift is two to four hours once we have the right unit, and we schedule around urgency. Somebody stuck upstairs is treated differently from a rattle that has been there a month, so say which it is when you call.
Do you work with the VA?
Yes. We are a federal contractor and approved vendor to the VA, working with dozens of medical centers. We cannot tell you what the VA will pay for, only what we have been contracted to supply before.
How much does a stairlift cost in Wisconsin?
It depends on whether your staircase is straight or curved, which is the single biggest factor. A straight lift is fitted in two to four hours from stock; a curved rail is manufactured to your staircase over three to five weeks. We will not quote a range that turns out to be wrong, and the survey that gives you a real number is free.
Will Medicare or Medicaid pay for it?
Medicare generally treats a stairlift as a home modification rather than durable medical equipment, so usually no. Medicaid depends entirely on the state and the program. We do not yet bill health insurance, but VA contracts, homeowners claims and workers compensation are different and we work with all three.
Do you work with veterans?
Yes. We are a federal contractor and approved vendor to the VA, working with dozens of medical centers. We cannot tell you what the VA will pay for, only what we have been contracted to supply before, and how to request us by name if your equipment is already approved.
Do you serve school districts and transit agencies?
Yes. Wheelchair lift preventive maintenance, securement service and bus air conditioning, scheduled in your yard around your routes, with a digital record per unit rather than per bus.
Do you work with assisted living and care facilities?
Yes, including free on-site tune-up clinics for equipment residents already own, whoever sold it. Also ceiling track, patient lifts and building access.
