1st Choice Stairlifts Limited

Having just read through 1st Choice's 20th Anniversary magazine, I just felt that I had to do a quick review. Since our first visit to the showroom in 2017 and meeting Lindsey we have been very impressed with such a professional company. A through the floor Wessex Lift was installed in January 2018 and we have been looked after throughout the years with services and any issues arising. Last Monday we had a power cut and my husband was stuck in the lift and very distressed. I could not remember how to bring the lift down! I called the office and within less than 5 minutes, Pete called me and talked me through what to do. It was so simple, just pressing one button but I was in a panic at the time! First class and an amazing company, who always go above and beyond. We definitely made the right decision to go with 1st Choice.

From my first contact ( recommended by Occupational Therapist ) to installation, the whole team has been courteous, friendly, respectful & professional. I organised everything for my mum. Living in London I had to time everything to work around my visits. From initial meet with Colin at mums home, right through to Adam fitting was only 4 weeks. Colin & Adam were pleasant to meet. Installation was slick, & everything was left spotless with a thorough coaching with mum on using the chair.

We have a elderly mother who had a unfortunate accident,it was decided that for us to give her her independence back that we needed a stairlift,after some research we found 1st choice,we wanted a local company that would help if any problems later and we are so pleased to say1st choice have gone way above our expectations,it was a very complex stairlift but not a problem for them,they were on the ball,from start to finish they have been very helpful,and now our minds are at ease,many thanks to all the staff,very highly recommended regards Andy,Louise and of course mother.

We had a stair lift fitted yesterday for us in our old cottage with a complex, really narrow and curved stair case. Although it had taken 6 months for Bill to feel ready to have the stair lift fitted after the initial quote 1st choice stuck by the original price. During the installation the engineers Jamie and Pete discovered that we had a rotten floor joist just where they needed to fix the rail on the landing. Rather than give in they fixed it on the day and even nailed some other loose floor boards down for us too. They were incredibly inventive utilising some wooden fence posts we had to fix the floor joists. They just got on with the job and we’re very cheerful and professional. No additional cost for the extra hours the work took. The stair lift is wonderful and already Bill has started to feel much better with not having the daily nightmare/ trauma of getting up and down the stairs. Thankyou 1st choice for a brilliant service. Bill and Fiona

We needed a chair lift at fairly short notice. 1st Choice stairlifts did what they could to speed things up - even managing to bring forward our installation date - it was just 9 days from our first telephone call to them, to installation and training! All of our contacts were professional and friendly, easy to talk to from start to finish, which made it a very easy process

They asked me to call when my dad came out of hospital the very next day they fitted the stairlift as it was essential for his well being. I would definitely recommend this company.

My stairlift was beyond repair on the Thursday morning and I thought I'd have to go weeks without being able to get upstairs at all but no. In come 1st choice and bang. New one fitted Friday afternoon and all was well again. Could not fault the service in anyway at all. The service was well beyond a 5-stars. If you're looking for a company to install a stairlift for you don't look any further than 1st choice. You WILL NOT be disappointed

We initially approached you on the recommendation of a family member & wanted to let you know just how delighted we've been with your service and the product. We needed a stairlift fitted within a short lead time and throughout the process your communication has been excellent, with all commitments met or exceeded. Matt, Ash, Lindsey and Connie have all been a pleasure to deal with, however Jordan was simply outstanding. We were having a very busy day when he came to do the installation but he worked around the interruptions with good humour, offering to help where he could. He was polite, informative and very considerate of our needs during a stressful period for us, and we really appreciated that so much. He is a huge asset to your organisation and we'd be pleased if you'd pass on our sincere thanks. Having the stairlift installed was the deciding factor in whether Mum would be able to live at home again, so this has made a fundamental difference to her quality of life. She returned home last week and has had no trouble at all in getting to know how to operate it. These days, sadly, it is rare to come across such a well-run company, which truly puts its customers a the heart of what it does, so we'd like to thank you once again and wish you every success in the future. You've been amazing!

Other installers told me I could not have a stairlift fitted because of our narrow staircase and my long legs. 1st Choice came out very quickly, solved the problem by showing us the Oto Curved stairlift and had it installed in no time with no mess at all. I cannot believe the difference this has made to my life after struggling so long to go up the stairs. The staff are all so friendly, but at the same time very professional. I cannot recommend 1st Choice Stairlifts and the Oto Curved Stairlift highly enough.
