Expert Stairlift Installation in Burlington, NJ

Straight rails are 2 to 4 hours on-site. We arrive, confirm measurements, bolt the rail into the treads, mount the seat, test every sensor, and walk you through the controls. Curved rails take 1 to 2 weeks to fabricate but install day is still under 4 hours. No multi-day disruption to your home.

No. The rail bolts into the stair treads — it is self-supporting and never touches the wall, banister, or plaster. We have installed in dozens of High Street Victorians and Burlington waterfront rowhouses without damaging a single original detail. If the lift is ever removed, you are left with small holes in the tread wood and nothing else.

A stairlift plugs into a standard 120V outlet. In older Burlington rowhouses with original 60-amp service or knob-and-tube wiring, the outlet near the stairs may not handle the peak draw. If we need a new dedicated circuit, our NJ-licensed electrician pulls the permit and handles the inspection. We tell you at the assessment whether a new circuit is needed.

Every stairlift we install runs on a rechargeable battery that charges continuously from a standard 120V outlet. When the power goes out, the battery provides 15 to 20 full trips up and down — enough to ride out any typical South Jersey storm. Outdoor models ship with cold-weather batteries rated for New Jersey's freeze-thaw cycles and coastal humidity.

The Corporal Michael J. Crescenz VA Medical Center in Philadelphia is 30 minutes from Burlington and processes HISA grants for South Jersey veterans. The grant covers up to $6,800 for service-connected disabilities and $2,000 for non-service-connected, paid directly to us after a prescription from your VA provider. We prefill VA Form 10-0103 and coordinate directly with the Philadelphia VA HISA coordinator. Typical turnaround is 4 to 8 weeks.

Yes, through the NJ Medicaid Managed Long-Term Services and Supports (MLTSS) program. MLTSS covers home modifications including stairlifts for qualifying individuals who need a nursing-facility level of care but choose to remain at home. You must be enrolled through one of the state's managed care organizations — Amerigroup, Aetna Better Health, Horizon NJ Health, Molina, or United Healthcare. We handle the authorization paperwork and coordinate with your MCO.

The Jersey Assistance for Community Caregiving (JACC) program provides up to $1,090 per month for home-based services including home modifications for adults age 65 and older or adults with disabilities. JACC is administered through your county Board of Social Services and is available to individuals who are not on Medicaid but meet the functional and financial eligibility criteria. Contact the Burlington County Board of Social Services at (609) 261-1000 to start the intake. We coordinate with the agency once you are approved.

Yes — three lending partners with 0% APR for qualified buyers and low fixed-rate plans from $79 per month. Application is a soft credit pull with no score impact, takes 4 minutes, and approval is usually instant. Many Burlington families combine financing with the IRS medical deduction, a JACC benefit, or a partial VA grant. We walk you through the math during the free assessment.
