Our Coverage Area

Stairlift Service Across Dallas County

Dallas County, TX

We install across University Park and the wider Park Cities. Volk Estates and Caruth Hills have grand two-story colonials and Georgians where sweeping entry stairs call for curved rails. University Heights and the duplexes off Hillcrest Avenue run narrow, 30 to 34 inches, so the seat folds tight to keep the walkway clear. Around McFarlin Boulevard, Windsor Place, and Snider Plaza, 1930s brick homes have thick oak treads that take the mounting bolts without subfloor work. We also serve neighboring Highland Park and Preston Hollow. Every rail anchors to the treads, never the original plaster or millwork.

Homeowners We've Helped in University Park

Hear It From Your University Park Neighbors

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

My mother's 1938 colonial near Snider Plaza had the steepest stairs I've ever seen. Luis measured everything in one visit and had the straight rail bolted to her oak treads in an afternoon. She cried when she got back to her own bedroom upstairs.

We have a curved staircase in our Hillcrest Avenue home and figured it would be a huge project. Luis laser-measured it, the bent rail came back three weeks later, and it tucks so tight to the wall you barely notice it. My father uses it four times a day.

Luis installed a straight lift on our Golf Drive stairs last spring. Three hours, no mess, and the original 1940s oak treads look exactly the same. He walked my wife through the controls twice before he left.

We've been in our home near Centennial Park 40 years and didn't want to move. The stairs are only 32 inches wide but the seat folds up to nothing when it's parked. Luis made it fit without crowding the landing.

Outdoor lift on the front porch steps of our Curtis Park home. It's been through a Texas ice storm and a 105-degree summer and hasn't missed a beat. Luis sealed the controls and showed me the key switch.

We put a platform lift in for my brother, who uses a wheelchair, on the stairs in our home off the Preston Road corridor. Luis spec'd the indoor inclined platform and now my brother gets himself up and down without help.

Common Questions

Everything University Park 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 University Park?

A straight stairlift in University Park starts at $2,800 installed. Curved units start at $9,000 because each rail is custom-bent to match your staircase. Outdoor lifts start at $4,000, and heavy-duty models start at $5,050. Every quote includes the rail, seat, installation, battery backup, and a written warranty with no hidden charges.

Why do curved stairlifts cost more than straight ones in University Park?

A curved rail has to be laser-measured on site, about an hour of work, then fabricated to match your staircase's exact angles and radii. That's why a curved unit on a Volk Estates or Caruth Hills entry stair starts at $9,000 and takes a full day to install, versus about three hours and $2,800 for a straight rail.

Are there financing options in University Park?

Yes. Financing starts at $79/month through our third-party lender, with no prepayment penalty and terms from 12 to 60 months. Many families combine financing with a HISA grant or STAR+PLUS coverage to lower the monthly payment.

Is a used or refurbished stairlift worth it?

We don't recommend used units. Every rail is cut to your staircase's exact length and turn geometry, so a used rail almost always needs costly modification and you lose the new-unit warranty. On most University Park stairs a new straight rail at $2,800 is the better value.

How long does stairlift installation take in University Park?

A straight-rail install takes about three hours from arrival to cleanup. Curved rails take a full day because the rail is bent off-site first, then fitted. We do a quick test ride with you before we leave and walk through every control.

Will a stairlift damage the original hardwood and millwork in my pre-war home?

No. The rail bolts directly to the stair treads, not the wall, with five or six bolts per rail into the tread surface. We don't touch the wainscoting, the balusters, or the plaster. On University Park's pre-war oak and pine treads the bolts hold without any subfloor work.

Do I need a permit for a stairlift in University Park?

University Park requires permits for most construction, but a stairlift that bolts to existing treads is typically classified as an accessibility device rather than a structural change. In 15 years of installs across the Park Cities we've never had one denied.

How narrow can my University Park staircase be?

The rail needs about 28 inches of stair width, and the seat folds up to roughly 16 inches when parked. Most University Park staircases built before 1950 run 32 to 36 inches, and even the narrow duplex stairs off Hillcrest, around 30 inches, work fine with the seat folded.

Does Medicare cover stairlifts in University Park?

Medicare Part B does not cover stairlifts, since they're classified as home modifications rather than durable medical equipment. Texas Medicaid's STAR+PLUS waiver, however, does cover minor home modifications including stairlifts for qualifying members, and the VA's HISA grant helps eligible veterans.

How does the VA HISA grant work for University Park veterans?

The VA's 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 conditions. It's one-time and tax-free. You'll need a prescription from a VA physician; the Dallas VA Medical Center at 4500 S Lancaster Road, about 8 miles south, handles HISA applications.

Can Texas STAR+PLUS Medicaid cover a stairlift in University Park?

Yes. The STAR+PLUS HCBS waiver covers minor home modifications, including stairlifts, when medically necessary and approved in your service plan. The minor-home-modification benefit carries a $7,500 lifetime cap. We've worked with Molina, Superior, and UnitedHealthcare STAR+PLUS plans across Dallas County.

What is the Amy Young Barrier Removal Program?

The Amy Young Barrier Removal Program is a Texas grant of up to $22,500 for home accessibility modifications for residents with disabilities. It can cover the full cost of a stairlift, equipment and installation, and is never repaid. It's a strong option if you don't qualify for STAR+PLUS or want to stack funding.

A word from Luis

I've fit stairlifts into the Tudors and Georgians all over University Park, from Volk Estates down to the duplexes near Hillcrest. These pre-war houses have thick oak and pine treads, which is good news: the rail bolts right into the wood, not the plaster walls, so nothing happens to your millwork or wainscoting.
The split-levels near Caruth Hills and the two-story colonials around McFarlin are different jobs. Curved entry stairs get laser-measured on site and bent at the factory; a straight half-flight goes in the same morning. Either way, you keep the bedroom and the house you've had for decades.

Your Next Step

Ready to get started? It's simple.

University Park homes weren't built for aging in place: 1920s Tudors with 8-inch risers, Georgian center-hall staircases with tight turns, and split-levels where the half-flight to the bedrooms is the obstacle. None of that stops a stairlift. The rail mounts to the treads, not the wall, and on these pre-war houses the oak and pine are thick enough to take the bolts cleanly.

If your stairs are getting harder, one call gets you a free in-home assessment and a fixed quote. Call Luis and the team at (800) 965-0350.
