Expert Stairlift Installation in Boerne, TX

Straight rails run 2 to 4 hours on-site. We arrive, confirm the laser measurements, bolt the rail into the stair treads, mount the chair, test every safety sensor, and walk you through the remotes. Curved rails take 1 to 2 weeks for digital scanning and fabrication, but install day is still under 4 hours. No overnight workers, no multi-day disruptions in your Boerne home.

Every Boerne install ships with sealed bearings in the drive system, UV-resistant finish on the rail, and heat-rated lubricant built for Central Texas summers that regularly exceed 100 degrees. The sealed motor housing keeps out cedar pollen and caliche dust that blows across Kendall County during dry months. These specs are standard on every install, not add-ons.

Yes. Many Cordillera Ranch and Tapatio Springs custom homes have curved entryway staircases with marble treads and wrought-iron banisters. We digitally scan the entire run on the first visit and fabricate a precision-curved rail that follows your staircase's exact geometry. Mounting brackets are designed for stone treads — no cracking, no damage to the marble. The rail finish matches brushed metal to complement wrought iron. We measure and confirm every detail before quoting.

No. Texas treats stairlifts as removable equipment rather than structural modifications, so no building permit is required from the City of Boerne or Kendall County. If a dedicated electrical circuit is needed — sometimes the case in older Main Street homes with original wiring — our licensed electrician pulls the electrical permit and handles it. We manage all paperwork.

The HISA grant covers up to $6,800 for service-connected disabilities and up to $2,000 for non-service-connected, paid directly to us. Boerne veterans typically get the prescription from the Audie L. Murphy VA Hospital at 7400 Merton Minter Boulevard in San Antonio — about 35 miles south. Get the prescription from your VA primary care provider, and we prefill VA Form 10-0103 the same week. The Kendall County Veterans Service Office can also help you start the process.

Yes, through STAR+PLUS. Stairlifts qualify as Adaptive Aids under an approved Individual Service Plan. You must be a Texas resident, age 65+ or an adult with a disability, financially eligible for Medicaid, and assessed at community-based care level. Contact your STAR+PLUS managed care organization to get a service coordinator assigned, name us as your provider, and we handle the authorization paperwork.

Yes. Under the federal Fair Housing Act (42 USC 3604(f)(3)(A)), landlords must allow tenants with disabilities to make reasonable modifications at the tenant's expense — including stairlift installation. The landlord cannot refuse a stairlift in a rental property if you have a documented mobility need. We provide the documentation template and coordinate directly with property managers when needed. Boerne renters have the same right to accessibility as homeowners.

Texas has no state income tax, but the IRS classifies a physician-recommended stairlift as a qualified medical expense under Schedule A on your federal return. If you itemize, the full installation cost reduces taxable income. We provide a physician letter template at your assessment so you have the documentation ready before install day.
