Our Coverage Area

Stairlift Service Across St. John the Baptist County

St. John the Baptist County, LA

We install stairlifts across every corner of Laplace and St. John the Baptist Parish. In Belle Terre, the gated community with newer construction, straight staircases are the norm and installs run fast. River Forest has larger homes with wider staircases and mid-landing turns — curved rails are common here. Over in Riverlands, many homes have exterior stair entries to porches, where outdoor lifts hold up to south Louisiana weather. Live Oak Landing, with its 255 homes, leans toward compact ranch layouts and straight-rail installs. In Summerlin Lake, single-story homes dominate but two-story builds have carpeted staircases we bolt right into.

Luis came out to our house in Sugar Ridge and had the straight lift installed in under four hours. My husband had been sleeping downstairs since his hip surgery — now he can get to our bedroom again. The rail matches our hardwood treads so well you barely notice it. No damage to the walls, no mess left behind.

We live in one of the older Acadian homes off River Road with a staircase that goes up and turns at a weird angle. Luis measured everything with his laser and three weeks later the curved rail fit perfectly. My mom can visit the grandkids upstairs now instead of staying on the ground floor.

Got the outdoor lift installed on our porch in Riverlands last fall. It's been through two big storms since then — rain, wind, humidity — and runs like the day they put it in. Luis warned us the salt air near the river eats cheap equipment, so he spec'd the marine-grade model. Worth every penny.

My father is a Vietnam vet and we used the HISA grant through the VA clinic in Reserve. Luis handled all the paperwork — we paid nothing out of pocket. The straight lift went in on a Tuesday morning in La Place Park and Dad was using it by lunch. The grant covered the full cost.

We needed a wheelchair platform lift for our son in Indigo Lakes. Luis came out twice — once to measure and once to install. The platform carries his chair up to 600 pounds with room to spare. Flat black deck, yellow safety edges, smooth ride. The whole family can stop carrying him up the stairs.

Common Questions

Everything Laplace 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 straight stairlift cost in Laplace, Louisiana?

A straight stairlift in Laplace starts at $2,800 installed. That covers the rail, seat, mounting hardware, and labor. Most straight installs in Laplace homes — ranch-style houses in Belle Terre, newer builds in Summerlin Lake — run between $2,800 and $3,500 depending on rail length. The in-home assessment is free, and we give you a firm quote before any work starts.

How much more does a curved stairlift cost for Laplace homes with landings or turns?

Curved stairlifts start at $9,000 in Laplace. The price reflects the custom rail — we laser-measure your exact staircase, then the rail is bent to match every turn. Common in River Forest homes with mid-stair landings and older Acadian raised houses off River Road where staircases are steep with tight corners. The measurement visit takes about an hour, and we provide the final price the same day.

Are there additional fees for installing a stairlift in older Laplace homes near the Mississippi River?

No extra fees for older homes. The assessment covers everything — we check tread condition, stair width, and landing space before quoting. Homes built before 1970 in the historic district off Main Street sometimes need a curved rail due to narrow, steep staircases, which costs more than a straight rail. But there is no surcharge for the age of the house itself.

Does All American Stairlifts charge for the in-home assessment in Laplace?

No. The in-home assessment in Laplace is free. Luis Ramírez, our Laplace specialist, comes to your home, measures your staircase, discusses product options, and gives you a written quote — all at no charge. You can schedule by calling the office or using the form on this page.

How long does a stairlift install take in a Laplace home?

Most straight stairlift installs in Laplace take about three hours from arrival to cleanup. Curved installs take longer — typically four to five hours — because the custom rail has more mounting points. Outdoor installs on Riverlands porches or raised-home stoops run about the same as indoor straights. We schedule morning or afternoon slots, and you can use the lift the same day.

Will a stairlift damage my walls or stairs in my Laplace house?

No. The rail bolts directly into the stair treads — never the wall. Drywall stays intact. When the lift is removed, the bolt holes in the treads can be filled with wood putty and stained to match. For tile or stone treads in older Laplace homes, we use specialized bits that drill clean without cracking.

Can you install a stairlift on the steep stairs in older Acadian-style Laplace homes?

Yes. Acadian raised homes — common along River Road and in the Laplace Historic District — often have steeper staircases than modern builds. We measure the rise and run of every step. If the angle is unusually steep, we spec a curved rail that wraps the landing for a safer entry and exit at the top. The lift itself adjusts to stair angles from 28 to 52 degrees.

Do I need a permit to install a stairlift in St. John the Baptist Parish?

No. Stairlift installation does not require a building permit in St. John the Baptist Parish or the City of Laplace. The install is classified as a home accessibility modification, not a structural renovation. If you live in an HOA community like Belle Terre or River Forest, the HOA covenants generally allow accessibility modifications under the Fair Housing Act — but we can help confirm that before the install date.

Will the VA pay for a stairlift for veterans in Laplace?

Yes, through the VA's HISA (Home Improvements and Structural Alterations) grant. Service-connected veterans can receive up to $6,800 for a stairlift. Non-service-connected veterans enrolled in VA health care can receive up to $2,000. The grant is one-time, tax-free, and never repaid. Laplace veterans can start the process at the St. John VA Clinic at 4004 West Airline Highway in Reserve (985-479-6770) or the New Orleans VA Medical Center at 2400 Canal Street (800-935-8387). We handle the HISA paperwork as part of your assessment.

Does Louisiana Medicaid cover stairlift installation through the Community Choices Waiver?

Yes. Louisiana's Community Choices Waiver (CCW), administered by the Office of Aging and Adult Services, includes Environmental Accessibility Adaptations (EAA) as a covered benefit. EAA covers physical home modifications — including stairlifts, ramps, and porch lifts — when medically necessary to keep the individual out of a nursing home. To apply, contact the St. John Council on Aging at 214 Regala Park Rd, Reserve, LA 70084, (985) 479-0272. They walk you through the CCW eligibility screening and the EAA assessment process.

What financing options does All American Stairlifts offer in Laplace?

We offer financing starting at $79/month with approved credit. The application takes about five minutes, and you get a decision on the spot. No prepayment penalty. A straight stairlift at $2,800 financed at $79/month lets you get the lift installed now and pay over time — same-week scheduling still applies.

Are there other Louisiana programs that help Laplace seniors pay for stairlifts?

Yes. The Louisiana Assistive Technology Access Network (LATAN) offers low-interest financial loans up to $50,000 for home accessibility equipment including stairlifts. The loans have fixed rates and extended terms — you can qualify even with less-than-perfect credit. Reach LATAN at (800) 270-6185 or visit latan.org. Additionally, the St. John Council on Aging (985) 479-0272 can help identify other local and state resources for seniors needing home modifications in St. John the Baptist Parish.

A word from Luis

I've been installing stairlifts in Laplace since 2010, and I can tell you exactly what to expect in a River Parishes home. In Belle Terre, the newer construction gives us wide, straight staircases — those go in fast, about three hours start to finish. The older Acadian raised houses along River Road are different. Those stairs can be steep with tight landings, which means a custom curved rail measured on site. I've done curved installs in River Forest where the staircase does a 90-degree turn at the upper landing — that takes about five hours with the laser measurement we do first.
The one thing I tell every family in St. John Parish: get the battery backup. We live in hurricane country out here. When Ida came through in 2021, families with battery-backed lifts were still using their stairs during the outage. The DC battery runs the lift for about six hours after the power drops. If you're in Riverlands or Summerlin Lake, I've probably done an install within three blocks of you. Call me at the Laplace office and I'll come look at your staircase — no cost for the assessment.
