Expert Stairlift Installation in Pecan Plantation, TX

Most straight stairlift installs take 3-4 hours. Curved lifts, which require a custom rail bent from laser measurements, take 4-5 hours on install day — the rail itself is fabricated off-site and typically arrives within two weeks of the measurement visit. Outdoor and platform lifts run 4-5 hours. We schedule within a week of your assessment.

No. The rail bolts directly to the stair treads, not the wall. There is no drywall work, no structural modification, and no repainting needed. For Pecan Plantation homeowners concerned about the PPOA architectural review, tread-mounted lifts do not trigger exterior-modification rules.

Every lift we install has a DC battery backup that charges while the lift is parked at the top or bottom charging contact. The battery runs the lift for roughly 20-25 round trips during an outage — enough to last through the storms and occasional tornado-warned weather that roll through Hood County.

Because the rail bolts to the treads — not the exterior structure — a stairlift does not typically require PPOA architectural review. However, if your installation involves an outdoor lift visible from the street, Luis can provide a spec sheet to include with your PPOA submission. In our experience, the association processes these quickly, usually within two business days.

Yes. The Texas STAR+PLUS HCBS waiver covers minor home modifications — including stairlifts — with an authorization limit of $10,000 per IPC period. The member must qualify for nursing-facility-level care and meet the income and asset limits ($2,982/month income and $2,000 countable assets for 2026). The stairlift must be documented as medically necessary in the service plan.

The Amy Young Barrier Removal Program, administered by the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs, provides one-time grants of up to $22,500 for home accessibility modifications — including stairlifts. Applicants must have a household member with a disability and income at or below 80% of the Area Median Family Income. Both homeowners and renters in Pecan Plantation are eligible.

For the HISA grant, you need a medical necessity letter from a VA primary care provider and a completed VA Form 10-0103. For STAR+PLUS, your managed care organization's service coordinator must include the stairlift in your individual service plan with a physician's order. For the Amy Young program, you need proof of disability, income verification, and a contractor estimate. Luis can provide the estimate and spec sheet at your assessment.
