Excellent and prompt support

I live a significant distance from my mother and I arranged for a Handicare stairlift to be installed for my mother last year. The experience was painless and efficient.

She has had a small issue with the unit. But, this has been dead with promptly. I had a query on the initial warranty and a possible extended warranty. I left a call back request and the team responded within the hour via email & then by phone. They were polite, prompt & extremely help. which, considering my distance from my mothers home has put my mind at rest should there be other issues.

annual service delay…

We requested an annual service 3 months ago. They phoned today to say they have " honoured " it because we reuuested the service while the stairlift was still in warranty. I pointed out that they havent honoured it yet. Apparently their engineer left and they had to train another. Then the new engineer left, which suggests there is an underlying issue in the company. We are not happy.

Really rude customer services

Really rude customer services - and when I said I'd be relaying this to Trust Pilot I was accused of blackmail. All I wanted to know was how to arrange a service for our stairlift, I didn't deserve to be spoken to that at all.

Hi Glenda,

We’re sorry to hear about your experience. We’ve looked into this and believe your stairlift was supplied by a third-party company, not directly by Handicare. Because we only service lifts installed by our own team or one of our certified partners, we weren’t able to arrange a visit on this occasion.

We completely understand how frustrating that must feel, and we’re sorry for any misunderstanding during your call. If you’d like us to help confirm who your original installer was or point you in the right direction for service support, please email us at UKCustomerCare@handicare.com
and we’ll do our best to assist.

Kind regards,
The Handicare Team

Had a stairlift installed for my mother after an accident. Had several firms come and quote etc. Handicare were the only ones to check her size weight etc. All contact was excellent and the driver delivering the stairlift was excellent, checked everything and prepared it for the engineer to fit. Same again the engineer was superb. No issues would recommend.

Having a stairlift installed, total peace of mind

From the start, contacting Age concern wit interest in having a stairlift. Meeting the surveyor & receiving the quotation & finally having the stairlift installed. All staff concerned/involved could not have been more helpful, polite & respectful. Nothing was too much trouble.
Having the stairlift in place has given me much more ease & most importantly allowed me to remain in my house. As well as keeping me safe & stop the fall up & down the stairs.
I have just had reason to request a visit from one of your engineers to come & rectify a small issue I had.
Again from first contacting the maintenance team & arranging a date for them to come out to the maintenance man fixing the problem in a very short time. Thy were all polite, informative, respectful & very god at the job. Thus giving me full confidence once again.
Thank you all

Quick efficient service.

Quick efficient service.

I also like the fact that you can hire a stairlift for a period of time and not have to but one.
Installation was painless, engineers friendly and professional, any issues dealt with swiftly.

Handicare Stairlifts UK were quick to…

Handicare Stairlifts UK were quick to respond to my request for an assessment of the suitability of a chairlift in our home. Within a few days of our decision to proceed with selecting and fitting one, the AgeUK chairlift was installed. The fitters were helpful in explaining how to use it and we use it as much for carrying laundry or cups of tea as for sparing our rheumatic limbs.

Handicare Stairlifts Quality Service

The company provided an excellent service from first contact through to completion. At each stage, staff were professional and courteous, there was no pressure from the team, including the representative who visited my parents home to discuss products, fitting and cost. Overall a great service I’d be happy to recommend the company unreservedly.
