Our Coverage Area

Stairlift Service Across Perry County

Perry County, IL

We serve every part of Du Quoin and the surrounding Perry County. Old Du Quoin, the original townsite southeast along Route 14, has century-old farmhouses with steep, enclosed stairwells and original hardwood treads. Homes on East Main and West Main Street include 1920s Craftsmans and older two-story houses with landing turns that need curved rail. The postwar ranches off Chestnut Street and Washington Street usually take straight rails run through carpet, while wider two-story homes near the Country Club and the State Fairgrounds often call for custom-bent curves. We also fit weather-sealed outdoor units for porch and side-door entries near Keyes Park.

Hear It From Your Du Quoin Neighbors

The kinds of staircases and installs we see across Du Quoin's older and newer homes alike. Drag to scroll, or use the arrows and dots below.

Mom has lived in the same house in Old Du Quoin for 48 years, and those steep steps were keeping her downstairs. Luis came out on a Wednesday, measured everything, and by Friday she was riding up to her bedroom again. The rail matches the oak treads so well you barely notice it.

We needed a curved rail for our two-story near the fairgrounds — the staircase has a half-wall landing turn. The laser measurement took about an hour, and two weeks later the custom rail fit perfectly. The seat parks upstairs out of the way. Luis walked my wife through every control before he left.

The outdoor lift on our porch near Keyes Park has survived two southern Illinois winters now — ice, snow, summer thunderstorms, the works. The rail cover sheds water and the seat stays dry. I figured an outdoor lift was a gamble in freeze-thaw country, but it's been rock solid with no rust.

Our 1970s ranch off Chestnut Street has carpeted stairs my husband couldn't manage after his hip surgery. The crew bolted through the carpet in about three hours and didn't tear the padding or leave a mark. The brown seat blends with our beige carpet — barely visible from the living room.

We got the platform lift for our son on Washington Street. He uses a power chair and can't transfer to a stairlift seat. The platform is wide enough for his chair, the yellow safety edges light up, and it folds against the wall when nobody's using it. Luis handled the whole install himself — no subcontractors.

I live in one of the old houses on East Main — narrow staircase, original woodwork everywhere. I worried a stairlift would look like a hospital gadget in a century home. The straight rail is barely wider than the baseboard, and the beige seat tucks neatly at the bottom landing. Three-hour install, one morning.

Common Questions

Everything Du Quoin Homeowners Actually Ask

Straight answers about cost, installation, and funding, no sales fluff. Browse by topic or call us if you have a question that isn't here.

What does a stairlift cost for a Du Quoin home?

A straight stairlift in Du Quoin starts at $2,800 installed. Curved lifts begin at $9,000, outdoor units at $4,000, and heavy-duty models rated to 600 lb at $5,050. Prices include in-home measurement, rail, seat, delivery, installation, and a demonstration. Final cost depends on staircase length and turns.

Are there any hidden fees or upcharges?

No. The quoted price from the free in-home assessment is the final price. It covers the rail, seat, delivery, installation, cleanup, and walk-through demo. There are no travel fees for Du Quoin or Perry County, and anything identified at the assessment is disclosed upfront.

Does a curved stairlift cost more with multiple turns?

Yes. Each turn adds a custom-bent rail segment. A single 90-degree landing turn is the baseline at $9,000. Multiple landings or switchbacks add more rail sections and fabrication time, so the assessment confirms the exact price for your stairs.

Do prices differ for older Old Du Quoin homes versus newer ranches?

Pricing depends on the stairs, not the home's age. A straight rail in a postwar ranch off Chestnut Street starts at $2,800, while a curved staircase in a century-old farmhouse near East Main with a landing turn starts at $9,000. The measurement determines the right solution.

How long does a stairlift installation take in Du Quoin?

A straight-rail install takes about three to four hours from arrival to final test ride. Curved rails take longer, typically a full day, because each segment is custom-bent off-site and must be assembled and calibrated on-site.

Will installation damage hardwood floors or walls?

No. The rail bolts directly to the stair treads, not the walls. The lag bolts go cleanly into the treads, so there's no drywall work, no wall anchors, and no baseboard damage. On removal, the small bolt holes fill easily.

Can you install on a narrow staircase like older Du Quoin homes?

Yes. The minimum required clear walking space is 29 inches after the rail and seat are in. Most century-old farmhouses and Old Du Quoin homes measure 32 to 36 inches across. The seat folds when not in use so family members can still walk the stairs normally.

Do I need a building permit for a stairlift in Du Quoin?

Generally no. Stairlifts are non-structural modifications that bolt to the treads and plug into a standard outlet, so Perry County and the City of Du Quoin do not require a permit. Condo or rental residents may need landlord or HOA approval first.

Can Illinois Medicaid cover stairlift costs in Du Quoin?

Yes. Illinois covers stairlifts as environmental accessibility adaptations through HCBS waivers, most often the Persons with Disabilities Waiver run by the Department of Human Services Division of Rehabilitation Services. Eligibility is income- and asset-tested and requires a Determination of Need showing nursing-facility-level risk. Seniors may also use the Community Care Program through the Illinois Department on Aging.

How does the VA HISA grant work for veterans near Du Quoin?

The VA Home Improvements and Structural Alterations (HISA) grant covers up to $6,800 for service-connected veterans and $2,000 for non-service-connected veterans. It's one-time, tax-free, and never repaid. Apply through the prosthetics department at the Marion VA Medical Center (2401 W Main St, Marion, IL) or the Carbondale VA Clinic (1130 E Walnut St, Carbondale, IL).

Are there state or county grants for home accessibility in southern Illinois?

Yes. The Illinois Home Accessibility Program through IDHS Division of Rehabilitation Services helps fund accessibility upgrades, including stairlifts, for people with disabilities. The Older Adult Home Modification Program targets low-cost modifications for seniors 62 and older. Perry County residents are served by both.

I live in a condo — can Illinois law help me get approval for a stairlift?

Yes. Section 18.4(q) of the Illinois Condominium Property Act (765 ILCS 605/18.4) requires condo boards to reasonably accommodate an owner's disability-related needs, including accessibility equipment. Approval typically comes within two to three weeks once the request is submitted.

A word from Luis

Most staircases I measure in Du Quoin sit in homes built between 1900 and 1960, the old coal-belt housing stock. Out in Old Du Quoin and along East Main I find narrow, enclosed stairwells in century-old farmhouses with original oak treads, so I bolt the rail straight to the steps and leave the wood alone.
Closer to the Country Club and the fairgrounds, the two-story homes have landing turns that need a custom-bent curved rail, while the postwar ranches off Chestnut and Washington Street usually take a simple straight rail through the carpet.
