I needed to install a chair lift for my wife at short notice. From first contact to having a working stairlift was four working days. I was well advised on the model and it works fine and meets all our needs.

First Choice Stairlifts was amazing. Very tidy very professional. Due to covid19 the gentleman that fitted the lift was very professional with safe distancing, wearing ppe to protect himself and myself too. Also the gentleman that fitted the electric supply, and all that was involved with the telephone calls. I would fully recommend first choice stairlifts with a 5 star.

We were recommended to this company by two separate people and can see why. From start to finish they were Friendly, Professional and kept us informed of the process throughout. Our stairs are curved so we had to have the stair lift made to fit. A member staff came round and measured and showed us the type of stair lifts we could choose and quoted us a price, he was a lovely man, friendly and not pushy at all. We were left to make our decision. From start to completion we had 5 star customer service, keeping us informed all the way along by lovely friendly staff. The guys who came to fit the lift were very professional and worked hard and kept the place tidy, afterwards they showed me how to use the lift. I have had follow up calls to make sure I am happy with everything. Would thoroughly recommend 1st Choice, excellent company with outstanding customer serve, thank you.

Every member of staff I spoke with was so friendly and helpful. So impressed with my stairlift it has changed my life, I’m no longer dreading climbing the stairs and getting back down was awful too but now there is no worry. Fitting the stairlift was very professional, friendly and very quick. I would highly recommend 1st Choice Stairlifts

I have had an issue with cancer over the new year which has rendered me unable to walk. We were put on to 1st Choice Stairlifts as they do rental packages which make their lifts more affordable. We took this up and a rep was out the same day to assess our requirements. He was very helpfull and understanding and there was no pressure to go for something more expensive he just focused on what we were asking for. He was able to sourcexa lift which could be fitted a few days later. We went ahead and sure enough the installer arrived on time and completed the job quickly and left no mess. He ran through all the features and use of the lift ensuring we had a full understanding before he left. Everyone we have encountered from 1st Choice whether face to face orxon the phone have been very friendly and helpful. I couldnt recommend them enough.
