If you live in Bristol and need a reliable home lift company, we can help. At 1st Choice Homelifts, we’ve been supporting local homeowners for more than 20 years — helping people stay independent, safe, and comfortable by making their homes more accessible.
A domestic lift (also called a residential lift, through-floor lift, or house lift) is an excellent way to remove the problem of having to use the stairs. Home lifts aren’t just practical — they’re also a modern alternative to stairlifts, and they allow two people to travel together, which is ideal if a carer provides support.
From our base and showroom in Calne, Wiltshire, we work with customers across the whole of Bristol and nearby areas, including:
Wherever you are in Bristol, our local Bristol based engineers can provide installation, servicing, repairs, and removals for your home lift.
When you choose 1st Choice Homelifts, you’ll benefit from a complete service handled entirely by our own skilled engineers:
We are authorised partners for leading brands including Stiltz and Wessex, providing proven and trusted home lift solutions.
Our goal is simple: to make homes across Bristol safer and more accessible with high-quality home lift solutions.
Our Calne showroom is open Monday to Friday, 8.30am–5pm (excluding bank holidays). Visits are by appointment so you get dedicated time with our experts.
The showroom has free parking, step-free access, and fully accessible facilities to make your visit easy and stress-free.
Costs vary depending on the lift model, size, and features, as well as any building works required. As a guide, domestic lifts usually start from £12,500 plus building works. We’ll provide a free home survey and a tailored, no-obligation quotation.
Most internal home lift installations do not require planning permission. However, listed buildings or major external changes may need approval. You’ll also need to notify building control, which we can arrange on your behalf.
The average installation, including associated building works, takes around three days, depending on the chosen model. We’ll give you a clear timeline during your survey.
We provide lifts from leading names such as Stiltz and Wessex. Our range includes compact through-floor lifts, standard residential models, and larger wheelchair-accessible platform lifts.
Yes — our Bristol-area engineers provide regular servicing, emergency repairs, and ongoing maintenance to keep your lift in excellent working order.
We sometimes have a limited stock of refurbished lifts, which are fully checked and reconditioned by our own engineers. These provide a cost-effective option without compromising on safety or quality.
