Expert Stairlift Installation in Cedartown, GA

Straight rails are 2 to 4 hours on-site. Luis arrives, confirms measurements, bolts the rail into the treads, mounts the seat, tests every sensor, and walks you through the controls. Curved rails take 1 to 2 weeks to fabricate but install day is still under 4 hours. No multi-day mess in your house.

No. The rail bolts into the stair treads — it never touches the wall, banister, or plaster. Many of the Wissahickon Avenue Victorians and South Philpot Street cottages have original 1890s hardwood. If the lift is ever removed, you are left with small holes in the tread wood that fill with putty in five minutes. Nothing structural, nothing visible from standing height.

A stairlift plugs into a standard 120V outlet. In older Cedartown homes with original 60-amp service, the outlet near the stairs may not handle the peak draw. If we need a new dedicated circuit, our GA-licensed electrician pulls the permit through the City of Cedartown and handles the inspection. We tell you at the assessment whether a new circuit is needed — no surprises on install day.

Yes. The seat, armrests, and footrest fold flat against the rail. The folded unit takes up about 11 inches of stair width. In a standard 36-inch Cedartown staircase, that leaves 25 inches of clear walking space — more than enough for anyone else in the house. Most families forget the lift is there within a week.

The Rome VA Clinic at 30 Chateau Drive SE in Rome (a CBOC of the Atlanta VA Health Care System) handles HISA grants for Polk County 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 primary care provider. The parent VAMC at 1670 Clairmont Road in Decatur reviews approvals. Typical turnaround is 4 to 8 weeks.

Yes, through the Elderly and Disabled Waiver Program (EDWP). The EDWP covers home modifications including stairlifts up to a $10,000 lifetime cap for qualifying residents. You must meet Medicaid income limits and have a functional needs assessment showing you require the modification. We handle the authorization paperwork and coordinate with the EDWP caseworker — no charge for that assistance.

The Georgia Division of Aging Services runs the Community Care Services Program (CCSP) for seniors age 60+ who earn too much for Medicaid but need help staying at home. Polk County is served through the Northwest Georgia Area Agency on Aging in Rome. Funding is state-allocated on a needs basis. We coordinate with the AAA case manager once you are approved.

Yes — three lending partners with 0% APR for qualified buyers and low fixed-rate plans starting at $79/month. Application is a soft credit pull (no score impact), takes 4 minutes, and approval is usually instant. Many Cedartown families combine financing with the EDWP waiver or a partial VA HISA grant to reduce the financed amount. We walk you through the math at the free assessment.
