New Sewickley Township covers 32.7 square miles of hilly but very fertile land in eastern Beaver County, and is home to the historic Hoffarosa Covered Bridge.

New Sewickley's hillside lots gave many houses split levels, raised basements, or stairs that climb the slope instead of flat ground, and a stairlift bolts to those treads without touching the structure underneath. With homeownership at 86.9%, most callers have owned the place for decades and have no interest in selling. Have me out to measure the split-level or basement entry, no charge to look.

What makes New Sewickley different
Why a stairlift installed in New Sewickley, PA is planned around the way this specific community lives, not stamped out from a one-size-fits-all template.
The township is predominantly rural and undeveloped despite proximity to I-76 and I-79; as of the 2000 census median household income was $42,614, and by 2020 the population of 7,164 included 14.8% aged 65 or older.

The kinds of staircases and installs we see across New Sewickley's older and newer homes alike. Drag to scroll, or use the arrows and dots below.
Luis came out to our farm on Baker Road the same week we called. We have an old 1920s farmhouse with steep, narrow stairs, and my mother-in-law couldn't manage them anymore. He measured everything, showed us exactly where the rail would go, and had the straight lift in before lunch. The seat is comfortable and she uses it every day now. No sales pitch, just a guy who knows what he's doing.
We put off getting a stairlift for two years because our stairs make a tight 90-degree turn at the top and we assumed it would be a construction nightmare. Luis came out, scanned the staircase with that laser, and showed us how the curved rail gets custom-bent to match. Two weeks later it was in, one morning, no mess. My husband can sleep in our bedroom again instead of the recliner downstairs.
Our house near the Freedom line is a split-level from the 1970s with carpeted stairs that go up six steps, turn at a landing, then six more. Luis put in a straight rail on the lower flight and walked us through why the landing made it two separate runs. $2,800 all-in. The install crew was done in under 3 hours and vacuumed the carpet before they left.
I was skeptical about an outdoor stairlift surviving a Beaver County winter, but Luis showed me the IP55 rating and the sealed motor housing. We've had it on our stone porch for a full year now, through snow, ice, and that week of 95-degree heat last July. Still works like new. The cover keeps the seat dry even after a heavy rain.
My dad uses a wheelchair and we thought we'd have to build a ramp or move to a single-story house. Luis suggested the platform lift instead, it rides right up the stairs from the garage entry. The black platform deck has yellow edges that light up, and it folds when not in use so people can still walk the stairs. My dad can get to the kitchen and living room without help now.
Called on a Monday, Luis was here Wednesday for the assessment, and the straight lift was in Friday morning. Our ranch near Big Knob has hardwood stairs, and the rail bolts right to the treads, no wall damage at all. My wife had been sleeping on a pullout couch on the first floor for six months. Three hours of install time and she's back in our bedroom. Worth every dollar.

New Sewickley Township spreads across southeastern Beaver County as a patchwork of family farms, wooded hollows, and scattered single-family homes. We install stairlifts in the older farmhouses along Big Knob Road and Baker Road, the 1970s and '80s ranchers and split-levels near Green Valley Park off Snyder Drive, and the homes tucked into the Unionville area near the historic church. We also work throughout the Miller Road corridor, the Crow's Run valley, and properties near the Freedom and Conway borough lines. Most homes here sit on acreage with staircases built from the 1920s through the 1990s: tread widths vary from 30 to 42 inches, and mid-landing turns are common.

Everything New Sewickley 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 install run in New Sewickley?
Straight-rail installs cost less because the rail comes off the shelf; anything with a landing, a turn, or a change in elevation, which is common on the sloped lots out here, needs a custom-built curved rail and runs higher. New Sewickley's most recent published median household income figure, $42,614 from the 2000 census, is old data, but it's a fair signal that for a lot of families in the township, the county and state funding programs below aren't optional: they're what gets the project done.
Does Medicare or my homeowners policy pay for any of this?
Medicare classifies a stairlift as a home modification rather than durable medical equipment, so it's excluded flat out, and homeowners insurance doesn't cover home modifications either. In Beaver County the realistic route is Pennsylvania's Community HealthChoices (CHC) Medicaid waiver, which funds home adaptations like ramps, railings, and doorway widening on a case-by-case basis through your CHC managed-care plan, call the PA Independent Enrollment Broker at 1-800-757-5042 to find out where a stairlift request would land.
How long does the install take on a hillside property like this?
A straight staircase inside a New Sewickley home is usually a one-day job regardless of the grade outside. What actually adds time is a split-level layout or a mid-flight landing, which some of the older farmhouses in the township have because the house was built to follow the hill rather than a flat foundation. Those need a curved rail, which means a measuring visit first and a build lead time before install day.
I've lived here for decades but don't own the house outright, does that change anything?
With homeownership in New Sewickley at 86.9%, most calls I get are from owners, but the rail itself doesn't require permanent structural changes either way: it attaches to the stair treads or the adjacent wall studs and can be unbolted and removed later. If you're not the owner of record, get sign-off in writing before we schedule, since removal terms usually get written into whatever agreement covers the property.
What funding actually applies to a stairlift for someone in New Sewickley Township?
Start with the Beaver County Office on Aging at 724-847-2262 (or 888-548-2262 toll-free). They're the gateway to the PA OPTIONS Program for seniors 60+ not on Medicaid (state-funded, sliding-scale co-pay, no hard income cutoff) and the PA Aging Waiver, both of which can fund home modifications for access on a case-by-case basis. If you're already on Medicaid, ask your CHC managed-care plan about the Home Adaptations benefit instead. TRPIL, the local Center for Independent Living, can also coordinate home modifications and assistive technology at 724-223-5115.
Is there help for veterans in the township?
Yes, the VA's Specially Adapted Housing (SAH) grant goes up to $126,526 for FY2026, and the Special Home Adaptation (SHA) grant up to $25,350, both usable across up to six lifetime uses, with smaller amounts available for adapting a temporary residence. Stairlifts aren't named outright in the VA's program language, which focuses on ramps and doorway widening, so it has to be built into an approved adaptation plan. Call 1-877-827-3702 to start that process.
What if I don't qualify for Medicaid or VA benefits, are there other options?
The PA Assistive Technology Foundation (PATF) offers loans specifically for things like stairlifts with no income limit attached: a 0% Mini-Loan from $100 to $7,000, or a Low-Interest Loan above $7,000 at 3.75%, up to $60,000 total. It's a loan, not a grant, but for New Sewickley homeowners who fall outside the Medicaid and VA programs, it's often the most straightforward path to actually financing the install.

I've worked jobs out past the Hoffarosa bridge and up along the township roads toward the municipal building, and New Sewickley's terrain throws something different at me almost every time: split-level farmhouses, a landing halfway up where the ground used to break, basement entries that were fine at 40 and aren't fine now. With homeownership sitting at 86.9% here, most of the people calling me have owned the same place for thirty or forty years and have zero interest in selling it because of a staircase. That's the job, plain and simple.
Ready to get started? It's simple.
