What changes the price on an Oldham staircase
Much of Oldham's housing, particularly around the town centre and Chadderton and Failsworth, is classic Lancashire mill-town terracing with straight staircase runs — usually the more affordable end of the range. The stone-built villages around Saddleworth tend to have older, more individual properties where a turned staircase is more common, so a curved rail is more likely to apply there.

How a Oldham survey and fit works
- 1Call or request a quote — Tell us roughly what your Oldham staircase does — straight run, or a turn somewhere.
- 2Free home survey — An engineer measures the stairs and confirms whether a standard straight rail fits or a curved rail needs building to measure.
- 3A firm written price — Including any VAT relief you qualify for. Anything extra, such as electrical work, is identified and priced at this stage — not afterwards.
- 4Installation — Straight stairlifts are usually fitted within a day. Curved rails take longer to schedule because each one is custom-built for your staircase.
Pay less than you think
Most stairlift buyers pay 0% VAT (chronically sick or disabled) or a reduced 5% (aged 60 or over, whatever your health) rather than the full rate.
