One of the most common questions homeowners ask is, “How much does a home lift cost?”
The answer depends on several factors, including the model selected, the installation location and the level of building work required. At upLifts Ireland, the two most popular models are the S2 and S3 Home Elevators.
The S2 is typically the more compact option and is often chosen where space is limited. The S3 provides additional space and capacity, making it suitable for homeowners who require greater flexibility or wheelchair access. As a result, the S3 generally carries a higher purchase price than the S2.
In addition to the lift itself, homeowners should budget for minor building works. In most installations, a floor aperture must be created between levels to allow the lift to travel. The cost of these works typically ranges from €2,000 to €4,000, depending on the construction of the property.
Factors that can influence building costs include:
- Timber versus concrete floors
- Access to the installation area
- Relocation of services such as plumbing or electrics
- Finishing requirements after installation
The good news is that upLifts Home Elevators are designed to minimise structural alterations, making them a cost-effective alternative to moving house or undertaking major renovation works.
