Our Coverage Area

Stairlift Service Across Grant County

Grant County, WI

Platteville's housing runs nearly two centuries deep. The West Main Street Historic District holds 1890–1920 Queen Anne and Italianate homes with original steep, narrow staircases that often need a slim-profile or custom-bent rail. The Rountree Avenue corridor mixes pre-war bungalows and mid-century capes with standard straight flights. Around Mound View Park you find 1970s split-levels and raised ranches, many with stone porch entries that take a sealed outdoor lift through the freeze-thaw season. Keystone Estates, the newer subdivision off the Rountree Branch Trail, has wider second-floor landings and the occasional mid-flight turn. We also serve homes near City Park and Smith Park, plus the southwest side. Pricing is the same across all of Platteville and out to nearby Cuba City, Lancaster, and Mineral Point.

Verified Customer Reviews

Hear It From Your Platteville Neighbors

Real stories from families across Grant County — drag to scroll, or use the arrows and dots below. Every review came from a verified customer.

My dad had been sleeping on the couch for six months because he couldn't get upstairs. Luis fitted a straight rail on our old flight in one morning and now Dad uses his own bedroom again. Clean work, and he showed us how the brackets bolt into the treads without touching the banister.

My husband has Parkinson's and the outdoor lift on our porch steps means he can get to every floor and out to the car safely. It's been through a full Wisconsin winter — freeze-thaw shifted those stones for years, but the lift runs every time. Worth every penny.

I was nervous about putting a stairlift on those old 1905 treads. Luis showed me exactly how the brackets work — small bolts into the wood, nothing touches the wall or banister, and he plugged the holes with color-matched filler. You'd never know where the rail came off.

The unit has been through two Wisconsin winters now and works perfectly. The cover keeps the seat dry through the snow, and when we lost power for three hours the battery backup carried my mother up and down without a hitch. No complaints at all.

My daughter uses a power chair and Luis put in an inclined platform that follows the stairs. She operates it herself with the remote — it gave her independence she didn't have before, and it folds up so the rest of us still use the staircase normally.

Three hours, one visit, no surprises. I was back upstairs the same day in our Keystone Estates two-story. The quote after the free assessment was exactly what I paid, and financing at $79 a month made it an easy call.

Common Questions

Everything Platteville 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 in Platteville, WI?

A straight stairlift starts at $2,800 installed. A curved stairlift, custom-built to your staircase after a laser measurement, starts at $9,000. Outdoor lifts start at $4,000 and heavy-duty models rated to 600 lb start at $5,050. Every quote includes the in-home assessment, rail, installation, and cleanup.

Why are curved stairlifts pricier than straight ones in Platteville homes?

Curved rails are not off-the-shelf. Each one is bent at the factory to match your exact stair turn — a technician spends about an hour at your home with a laser tool, then the rail is fabricated to fit. That custom work is why curved lifts cost more than the standard straight rail used in most West Main flights.

Is there financing for a stairlift in Platteville?

Yes. Financing starts at $79/month through our lending partners. We also point Platteville residents toward the WisLoan program — a statewide low-interest loan through WisTech for residents with disabilities, which stairlifts qualify for.

Does insurance cover a stairlift in Platteville?

Standard Medicare and most private plans generally do not cover stairlifts. However, Wisconsin's IRIS (Include, Respect, I Self-Direct) Medicaid waiver and the Family Care managed-care program can fund a stairlift when it's medically justified as part of your care plan.

How long does a stairlift installation take in a Platteville home?

A straight-rail install takes about three hours from arrival to test ride. Curved installs run four to six hours because the rail is custom-fitted. We schedule a single visit with no return trips, so most homeowners are riding the same day.

Will installation damage my historic West Main Street home?

No. We bolt the rail directly into the stair treads — never into walls, plaster, or the banister. The bolt holes are small and we fill them with color-matched plugs. The original woodwork on those pre-1920 Queen Anne staircases stays intact.

Can you install on the narrow staircases in older Platteville homes?

Yes. Our narrowest rail fits a 28-inch-wide staircase, which covers most of the steep, tight flights in the West Main district and the older cottages near City Park. The seat folds up when not in use, leaving about 17 inches of clear walking space.

Can you install on carpeted Platteville stairs?

Yes — carpeted stairs are common in the 1970s colonials around Smith Park. The rail brackets bolt through the carpet into the structural tread beneath. We do not remove or replace any carpet, and there's no subfloor damage.

How does the VA HISA grant work for Platteville veterans?

The VA Home Improvements and Structural Alterations (HISA) grant provides up to $6,800 for veterans with service-connected disabilities and up to $2,000 for non-service-connected veterans. It's one-time and tax-free. Platteville veterans can contact the William S. Middleton Memorial Veterans Hospital at 2500 Overlook Terrace in Madison, or the Tomah VA Medical Center at 500 East Veterans Street in Tomah.

Does Wisconsin IRIS cover stairlifts in Platteville?

Yes. IRIS (Include, Respect, I Self-Direct) is Wisconsin's Medicaid HCBS waiver. Participants receive an individual budget, and home modifications — including stairlifts — are allowable one-time expenses when medically necessary. Grant County's ADRC can help you enroll.

What is the WisLoan program?

WisLoan is a statewide low-interest loan program through WisTech for Wisconsin residents with disabilities. Stairlifts qualify, and it can be combined with other funding to cover the balance the VA HISA grant or IRIS doesn't reach.

Does Family Care cover stairlifts in Platteville?

Yes. Family Care is Wisconsin's Medicaid managed long-term-care program and can cover home modifications, including stairlifts, when the managed care organization approves the expense as part of the member's care plan. Grant County's ADRC handles Family Care enrollment alongside IRIS.

A word from Luis

Platteville is a town where the stairs tell a story. Half the homes I walk into in the West Main Street Historic District were built before 1920 — steep risers, tight turns, hardwood treads worn smooth by a century of footsteps. I bolt the rail into the treads, never the plaster, and fill the small holes with color-matched plugs so the original woodwork stays untouched.
Out near Mound View Park you get the 1970s split-levels and raised ranches with outdoor porch entries, where Wisconsin freeze-thaw shifts the stone steps. Those want a sealed outdoor rail. In Keystone Estates it's wider modern flights with a landing turn. Every Platteville staircase is its own measurement — that's why the in-home assessment is free.

Your Next Step

Ready to get started? It's simple.

From an 1830s limestone cottage to a modern build near the university, every Platteville staircase needs its own measurement — there's no one-size rail in a town with 200 years of housing stock. The process is simple: contact us, get a free in-home assessment within 24 hours, and have a licensed crew install — most straight rails go in the same day.

Veterans can route HISA paperwork through the William S. Middleton VA in Madison, and Grant County's ADRC handles IRIS enrollment. Call (800) 965-0350 to book your free assessment.
