Our Coverage Area

Stairlift Service Across Lake County

Lake County, IN

We install across every corner of Schererville. In Briar Ridge Country Club, the upscale custom homes often have curved staircases wrapping a half-wall, which call for a custom-bent rail. Plum Creek and Apple Tree Estates lean toward 1990s and 2000s two-stories with carpeted runs that take a straight rail bolted through the carpet into the treads. Camden Woods and Eagle Ridge Estates mix ranch-on-basement layouts where a platform lift sometimes fits better than a seat. Compact half-duplexes in Plum Creek need slim-rail straight lifts that fold flat in a narrow hall. Foxwood Estates porches often get a weather-sealed outdoor lift. We also serve nearby Griffith, Dyer, Highland, Munster, Merrillville and Crown Point.

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

Luis came to our Briar Ridge home the day after I called. The curved staircase in our entryway had worried me for two years. He laser-measured it in an hour, gave a firm price, and two weeks later the rail was in. It hugs the half-wall perfectly and parks at the top out of the hallway.

My mother moved in with us in Camden Woods and the upstairs became a real problem. Luis recommended a straight rail for our carpeted staircase instead of upselling us. The brown seat matches the carpet, and the brackets sit right on top — no damage. He had it running by lunchtime.

We needed an outdoor lift for the four stone steps at our Foxwood Estates porch. Luis warned us an Indiana winter would be the real test. Two seasons of lake-effect snow later, it still runs smooth — no rust, no sticking. The cream seat blends right into the stonework.

Our Plum Creek half-duplex has the narrowest staircase I've ever seen, maybe 32 inches. I didn't think a stairlift would fit. Luis brought a slim-rail model that folds flat against the wall, and we can still get past it in the hall. Three hours and it was done.

I called three stairlift companies before Luis. The other two quoted over the phone without seeing the stairs. Luis actually came to our Apple Tree Estates home, measured every tread, and the price he gave is the price we paid. The carpeted-stair install took one morning.

My father is a Vietnam vet, and we used the HISA grant through the Adam Benjamin clinic in Crown Point. Luis knew exactly which VA forms we needed and walked us through them. The platform lift in our Forest View ranch lets Dad reach the basement on his own again.

Common Questions

Everything Schererville 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 Schererville, Indiana?

Straight stairlifts start at $2,800 installed; curved models from $9,000; outdoor lifts from $4,000; heavy-duty units from $5,050. Final pricing depends on stair length, number of turns, and whether any tread reinforcement is needed. Luis gives a firm, written price at the free in-home measurement.

Do you offer financing for Schererville residents?

Yes. Financing starts at $79/month through third-party lenders with a soft credit pull and instant approval. Terms run 12 to 60 months with no prepayment penalty, so you can pay the lift off early without extra cost.

Does the price change based on which Schererville subdivision I live in?

No. Pricing is the same whether you're in Briar Ridge, Plum Creek or Camden Woods. Any difference reflects the actual staircase — number of steps, turns, tread material and reinforcement — not the neighborhood or ZIP code.

Is a curved stairlift really thousands more than a straight one in Schererville?

Yes. A curved rail is custom-bent from a single piece of aluminum to match your exact stair geometry after a one-hour laser measurement. Fabrication takes about two weeks, and the finished rail follows the stairs with no gaps — that custom work is the price difference.

How long does a stairlift installation take in Schererville?

Straight stairlifts take about 3 hours; curved installations run 4 to 5 hours; platform lifts 5 to 6 hours. Most Schererville jobs are finished in a single morning, and Luis tests every function with you before he leaves.

Will installation damage walls, floors, or carpet in my Schererville home?

No. Rails bolt directly into the stair treads, never into walls or drywall. On hardwood or tile, small bolt holes sit under the brackets; on carpeted Apple Tree Estates stairs, brackets sit on top and the carpet stays intact. No wall or electrical work is required.

Can you install on the older staircases in Schererville?

Yes, routinely. Luis inspects every tread during the free measurement. If a tread on an older Joliet Street two-story needs reinforcement, that's handled as part of the install at minimal extra cost — there's no separate carpentry trip.

Do I need HOA approval in a Schererville subdivision like Briar Ridge?

For indoor lifts, no — HOAs have no say over interior modifications. For an outdoor porch lift, check your subdivision covenants, though outdoor stairlifts are protected as accessibility equipment under the Fair Housing Act.

Does Indiana Medicaid cover stairlifts through PathWays for Aging?

Yes. PathWays for Aging, which replaced the Aged & Disabled Waiver in July 2024 for Hoosiers 60+, covers home modifications including stairlifts when written into the service plan as medically necessary. Contact the Northwest Indiana Area Agency on Aging at 800-713-9023 for an eligibility screening.

How does the VA HISA grant work for Schererville veterans?

The VA Home Improvements and Structural Alterations (HISA) grant provides up to $6,800 for service-connected veterans, or $2,000 for non-service-connected veterans. It's one-time and tax-free. The nearest facility is the Adam Benjamin Jr. VA Outpatient Clinic at 9301 Madison Street in Crown Point, about 6 miles from Schererville. You'll need a VA medical-necessity letter and a contractor quote.

Are there Lake County or Indiana-specific grants for home modifications?

Beyond PathWays for Aging, Indiana's CHOICE program (Community and Home Options to Institutional Care) may fund modifications for seniors at risk of nursing-home placement. The St. John Township Trustee's office on Lincoln Highway in Schererville offers emergency assistance, and Northwest Indiana Community Action runs programs for older adults. Coverage varies by income and need.

Does Medicare cover stairlifts in Schererville?

No. Original Medicare (Parts A and B) does not cover stairlifts — they're classed as home modifications, not durable medical equipment. Some Medicare Advantage (Part C) plans offer supplemental home-modification benefits, but that varies by plan and county, so check your specific plan.

A word from Luis

I've put stairlifts into roughly 400 homes across Schererville and the Tri-Town area, and no two staircases match. You've got 1970s split-levels in Plum Creek with tight, narrow runs, big custom builds in Briar Ridge with curved staircases wrapping a half-wall, and older two-stories off Joliet Street where the treads have settled over decades.
The measurement is free and takes about an hour. I come to your home, laser-measure every tread and turn, and give you a firm price before any work starts. Straight stairs I can usually install the same week; curved rails take two weeks to fabricate, then one morning to bolt in.
What most families here don't realize is how much funding exists. Between PathWays for Aging through Indiana Medicaid and the VA HISA grant handled at the Adam Benjamin clinic in Crown Point, plenty of Schererville households pay well under sticker. Call me and I'll tell you what applies.

Your Next Step

Ready to get started? It's simple.

Schererville's housing stock tells the town's story: 1970s split-levels from the first growth wave, 1990s custom builds in Briar Ridge as the town matured, and newer infill across Plum Creek and Camden Woods. Every staircase is different, which is why we send Luis — not a salesperson — to every free assessment. He measures, he prices, and he installs.

Whether you're funding through PathWays for Aging, the VA HISA grant at the Adam Benjamin clinic in Crown Point, or paying out of pocket with $79/month financing, you'll get a firm price up front. Call (800) 965-0350 to book your free Schererville measurement.
