Signs your stairlift may need servicing or replacement

October 2, 2025

Droitwich Stairlifts know how important it is to stay independent and safe at home.

Stairs can be a challenge for those with limited mobility and a well-maintained stairlift is essential for daily comfort. Our family-run business has over 25 years of experience installing and servicing reconditioned Stannah stairlifts across Worcestershire, including Droitwich, Kidderminster , Dudley , Worcester , Evesham and further afield.


Feel happier at home with our help


A stairlift should make your life easier, not cause worry. Regular servicing ensures your stairlift is safe, reliable and performing as it should. Our new dedicated support specialist, Zoe, manages all stairlift servicing enquiries. Simply call and ask for Zoe to book your annual service, giving you peace of mind.


Key signs your stairlift needs servicing


Even the most reliable Stannah stairlifts can show wear over time. Here are the signs to watch for:

 

  • Unusual noises – Grinding, squeaking or clicking sounds may indicate lubrication or part replacement is needed.
  • Slow or jerky movement – Hesitation or uneven motion signals your stairlift may need a check-up.
  • Battery problems – Short battery life or unexpected stops can be fixed during routine servicing.
  • Worn components – Loose seats, tracks or seat belts reduce safety and should be addressed immediately.
  • Control issues – Faulty buttons or unresponsive handsets can affect safe operation.

 

Noticing these early prevents costly repairs and ensures your stairlift continues to work safely.
