Our Coverage Area

Stairlift Service Across Jefferson County

Jefferson County, LA

Terrytown’s alphabetical A-Streets through D-Streets grid near the Westbank Expressway is dense with 1960s brick ranches—many with staircases under 36 inches wide that need a flush-mounted rail. The Whitney Avenue corridor holds 1965-era cottages with tile-and-hardwood treads, while split-levels near Oakwood Center and along Holmes Boulevard add a turn at the landing that calls for a curved rail. Newer Oakwood Estates homes off Holmes have wider switchback stairs. We also serve nearby Gretna, Harvey, Belle Chasse, Marrero, Estelle, and Timberlane across the West Bank.

Jefferson County Homeowners

Hear It From Your Terrytown Neighbors

What a stairlift project looks like for families in Terrytown and nearby Jefferson County. Drag to scroll, or use the arrows and dots below.

Luis came out to our A-Streets home—I was sure our 1962 staircase was too narrow at 32 inches. He folded the seat, showed me the clearance, and had it in within the week. My husband slept upstairs in his own bed that night for the first time in months.

The curved rail Luis ordered for our Oakwood Estates switchback took about ten days to come back bent to our exact turn. It hugs the landing without blocking the hallway, and the swivel at the top means my mother steps off facing the right way.

Two hurricane seasons later the IP55 seals and marine-grade coating on our Holmes Boulevard porch lift still look new. The rough stone paving made the bracket placement tricky, but Luis epoxy-set the anchors and it hasn’t budged.

Luis walked us through the HISA grant step by step—the VA prescription came from the New Orleans VA on Canal Street, and the $6,800 covered the whole straight lift on our Whitney Avenue cottage. We didn’t pay a dime out of pocket.

The seat fabric even matches our carpet tone near Oakwood Center—nobody notices it’s there. The battery backup got my mom up and down through two power outages last storm season without a hitch.

Luis coordinated the Community Choices Waiver approval through Healthy Louisiana for our home off Belle Chasse Highway. It covered the platform lift, and now the whole family can still use the stairs normally while my brother rides up.

Common Questions

Everything Terrytown 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 Terrytown, LA?

Straight stairlifts start at $2,800 installed. Curved lifts begin at $9,000 (custom-bent to match your turns). Outdoor models start at $4,000, and heavy-duty units rated to 600 lb start at $5,050. Every price covers the rail, seat, installation, and a 5-year warranty plus lifetime rail coverage. Financing is available from $79/month.

Are there any hidden fees with Terrytown stairlift installation?

No. The quoted price covers the rail, seat, mounting hardware, installation labor, and the 5-year warranty with lifetime rail coverage. Anything unusual—like a non-standard stair width or tight landing clearance in an A-Streets cottage—is flagged during the free in-home measure, before you commit to anything.

How much is a curved stairlift vs. a straight one in Terrytown?

Straight lifts start at $2,800; curved lifts start at $9,000. The difference is custom fabrication—each curved rail is bent off-site to match your exact staircase after a laser measurement. Curved rails are common in the split-level layouts near Oakwood Center and the switchback stairs in Oakwood Estates.

Does a stairlift make sense versus moving in Terrytown?

For most Terrytown families a stairlift is a fraction of the cost of selling, moving, or remodeling a 1960s brick ranch for single-floor living. With median home values near $220,000 on the West Bank, a $2,800 straight lift lets a parent keep the house they’ve owned for decades rather than relocate.

How long does stairlift installation take in Terrytown?

Straight installs typically take about 3 hours; curved rail installs run 4–6 hours. The rail bolts directly to the stair treads—not the walls—so there’s no drywall repair or structural work. The lift plugs into a standard wall outlet, so no rewiring is needed either.

Will a stairlift damage my Terrytown home’s stairs or walls?

No wall damage—brackets fasten to the stair treads, not the drywall or handrail. On the hardwood treads common in A-Streets homes, bolt-through mounting holds securely without splitting. On carpeted stairs, brackets go through the carpet into the tread beneath. The few small bolt holes fill easily if the lift is ever removed.

Can you install a stairlift on narrow Terrytown stairs?

Yes. Many Terrytown brick ranches have staircases under 36 inches wide, and standard straight lifts fit stairs as narrow as 28 inches with the seat folded. The rail mounts flush to the tread edge, leaving 16–18 inches of pass-through. We confirm exact width during the free in-home measure.

Do you install outdoor stairlifts on Terrytown porch entries?

Yes—outdoor lifts are common on the raised-foundation homes along Belle Chasse Highway and Holmes Boulevard. IP55-rated components with marine-grade sealing handle West Bank humidity and hurricane-season rain. An outdoor install usually takes about 4 hours.

Does insurance cover stairlift costs in Louisiana?

Medicare does not cover stairlifts. Louisiana Medicaid’s Community Choices Waiver (CCW) covers Environmental Accessibility Adaptations (EAA)—including stairlifts—for beneficiaries who meet nursing-home level-of-care criteria. Some private long-term-care policies also cover home modifications. The VA HISA grant (up to $6,800 for service-connected veterans) is a separate path.

How does the VA HISA grant work for Terrytown veterans?

The VA Home Improvements and Structural Alterations (HISA) grant provides up to $6,800 for service-connected veterans and up to $2,000 for non-service-connected veterans. It’s one-time, tax-free, and never repaid. You need a prescription from a VA provider and the HISA application forms. The Southeast Louisiana Veterans Health Care System at the New Orleans VA Medical Center (2400 Canal Street) processes applications, and Luis helps with the paperwork.

Does Louisiana Medicaid cover stairlifts in Jefferson Parish?

Yes. Louisiana’s Community Choices Waiver (CCW), administered by the Office of Aging and Adult Services, covers Environmental Accessibility Adaptations (EAA)—including stairlifts—for beneficiaries meeting nursing-home level-of-care criteria. Approval is based on medical necessity and a cost-reasonableness review. Jefferson Parish residents apply through Healthy Louisiana, the state’s Medicaid managed-care program.

Are there other Louisiana programs for seniors needing a stairlift?

Beyond the CCW, the Louisiana Assistive Technology Access Network (LATAN) offers device-loan and low-interest financing for assistive technology, including stairlifts, for residents with disabilities. Older Americans Act funds through Louisiana’s Area Agencies on Aging sometimes support minor home modifications, though stairlift coverage varies by parish. We check LATAN and AAA eligibility during the free measure.

A word from Luis

More than half of Terrytown went up between 1960 and 1980, back when Paul Kapelow carved the first planned subdivision out of the West Bank woods. That means narrow staircases, split-levels, and short landings nobody built with aging in place in mind. In the A-Streets and Whitney Avenue cottages, a straight rail bolts straight to the treads in about three hours—no wall damage, no rewiring.
For the Oakwood Estates homes with a turn at the landing, I take a laser measurement on site and the curved rail comes back bent to that exact geometry. West Bank humidity and hurricane-season rain mean our outdoor installs use marine-grade sealing and IP55 components. And for veterans, we’re minutes from the New Orleans VA on Canal Street—I walk Terrytown families through the HISA grant paperwork right at the free measure.

Your Next Step

Ready to get started? It's simple.

Terrytown sits on the West Bank a short drive from downtown New Orleans—a community of about 25,000 where nearly half the homes were built before 1980 and the staircases show it. A stairlift keeps a parent in the house they’ve owned for decades instead of turning the stairs into a daily hazard.

Luis handles the free in-home measure himself and most Terrytown installs finish the same week. Call (800) 965-0350 to book a visit and get a firm, all-in price before you commit.
