Our Coverage Area

Stairlift Service Across Nassau County

Nassau County, NY

Wantagh's streets fall into a few distinct pockets, each with its own stair geometry. Wantagh Woods is full of 1950s–60s capes and split-levels — narrow stairs, often 32–34 inches wide, ideal for a slimline straight rail. Forest City and Forest Lake run to ranches and colonials with mostly straight runs. Mandalay and the canal blocks near South Wantagh hold larger waterfront homes with curved staircases that need custom-measured rails and salt-air-sealed packages. Homes near Twin Lakes round out the mix. We also serve North Wantagh, Seaford, Bellmore, Merrick, and Massapequa.

How jobs tend to go for Wantagh homeowners, where about 17% of residents are 65 or older. Drag to scroll, or use the arrows and dots below.

Luis came out to our Forest City colonial on a Wednesday and by that night my husband slept in his own bed upstairs for the first time in months. When the power went out in the January nor'easter, the battery backup ran the lift through the whole outage.

Our Wantagh Woods split-level stairs are only 32 inches wide and I was sure nothing would fit. The seat folds to about 13 inches. My mother is 78 and now gets to the second-floor bathroom by herself. Done by noon.

Three other companies said our Mandalay curved staircase needed a whole new rail system. Luis did the laser measurement, the rail arrived a few weeks later bent to our exact turn, and my father-in-law uses it every day without help now.

We needed the platform lift, not a seat, because my wife uses a wheelchair. She can move between floors on her own now for the first time in two years. It runs on its own circuit and the battery backup covers us in outages.

Mom's Holiday Park cape has beautiful stone stairs that got dangerous after she broke her hip. The bolts went into the treads, not the stone facing, so nothing was damaged. Best decision we made for her since the fall.

I put it off two years because I thought it would make the house feel institutional. It doesn't. At 81 I can get down to the basement laundry without my son worrying, and the $79/month made it easy to say yes.

Common Questions

Everything Wantagh 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 straight stairlift cost in Wantagh?

A straight stairlift in Wantagh starts at $2,800. That covers the rail, the powered seat, two wireless remotes, and a standard install — typically 3 to 4 hours on site. The final price depends mostly on rail length, and most Wantagh staircases run 12 to 16 feet. Financing is available from $79/month.

What does a curved stairlift cost for a Wantagh home?

Curved stairlifts start at $9,000, because every rail is custom-bent to your staircase's exact geometry — common in Mandalay's waterfront homes. The laser measurement on site takes about an hour, the rail is fabricated off-site over a few weeks, and the install itself runs 4 to 5 hours.

Are there financing options for Wantagh residents?

Yes — financing starts at $79/month with approved credit. We handle the paperwork during the free in-home assessment, and most applicants get an answer within minutes. Terms run 12 to 60 months, and there's no prepayment penalty if you pay it off early.

Does Medicare cover stairlift installation in Wantagh?

Medicare Parts A and B do not cover stairlifts — they're classified as home modifications, not durable medical equipment. However, New York Medicaid through the NHTD Waiver can cover stairlifts as Environmental Modifications, and the VA HISA grant provides up to $6,800 for qualifying veterans.

How long does stairlift installation take in Wantagh?

A straight stairlift install in Wantagh takes 3 to 4 hours from arrival to your first test ride. Curved installs take 4 to 5 hours because the custom rail needs precise alignment at every bracket. Outdoor units run about 4 hours, and an inclined platform lift about 4 hours. Most jobs finish the same day.

Will a stairlift damage my Wantagh home's walls or staircase?

No. The rail bolts directly into the stair treads, not the wall, so the drywall and banister stay untouched. Carpeted stairs need no cutting — the rail mounts through the carpet into the wood beneath. On the stone treads common in older Holiday Park capes, the bolts go into the treads, not the stone facing.

Can a stairlift fit on narrow Wantagh stairs?

Yes. The folded seat extends only about 13 inches from the wall, so even the 31- to 32-inch staircases found in many Wantagh Woods split-levels and capes leave room to pass. The seat, arms, and footrest all fold up when the lift isn't in use.

Do you install outdoor stairlifts at Wantagh homes?

Yes. For South Wantagh homes and any property near the canals exposed to salt air, we use the IP55 weather-sealed outdoor package with a marine-grade rail coating. These lifts handle nor'easter conditions, freeze-thaw cycles, and the humidity that comes with living minutes from Jones Beach.

Does the VA HISA grant cover stairlifts for veterans in Wantagh?

Yes. 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. The nearest VA facilities for Wantagh veterans are the East Meadow VA Clinic at 2201 Hempstead Turnpike (about 7 miles) and the Northport VA Medical Center at 79 Middleville Road (about 20 miles).

Does New York Medicaid cover stairlifts through the NHTD Waiver?

Yes. The Nursing Home Transition and Diversion (NHTD) Waiver — New York's 1915(c) Medicaid waiver — covers Environmental Modifications (E-mods), which include stairlift installation, for Medicaid-eligible seniors and adults with disabilities who meet a nursing-home level of care. Managed Long-Term Care (MLTC) plans can also authorize these mods.

Does the Town of Hempstead offer any help for Wantagh seniors?

Yes. The Town of Hempstead's Senior Citizen Home Improvement Program provides interest-free loans to income-eligible senior homeowners for interior and exterior improvements, including accessibility modifications like stairlifts. Wantagh sits within the Town of Hempstead, so local residents qualify — contact the Town's Department of Planning and Economic Development to start.

Are there other New York State programs that help with stairlift costs?

Yes. Beyond the NHTD Waiver and the VA HISA grant, New York's Community First Choice (CFC) Option — part of standard state-plan Medicaid — can cover home accessibility modifications including stairlifts, without the full NHTD waiver process for those who qualify.

A word from Luis

Wantagh's housing splits along the water. Up in Wantagh Woods and Forest City you get 1950s capes and split-levels with 32-inch stairs — tight, but a straight rail handles them. Down toward Mandalay and South Wantagh, the homes are bigger, the staircases curve, and the salt air means I always spec the sealed package on anything near a canal.
I measure on site, never off a photo. The rail bolts to your treads, so the walls and banister stay untouched, and most straight jobs are done in about 3 hours. If you're a veteran, I'll point you to the East Meadow VA clinic and the HISA grant before you spend a dollar.

Your Next Step

Ready to get started? It's simple.

Wantagh sits minutes from Jones Beach, and most of its 1950s–70s capes, split-levels, and waterfront colonials were built for young families, not for aging in place. The staircase that's easy at 35 becomes the hardest part of the house at 78 — and the salt air off the canals is hard on anything that isn't sealed for it.
