Fantastic company to deal with, Superb engineers and workmanship! I can finally get upstairs for the first time in years!
Homelifts Fitted to Suit Manchester’s Mix of Housing
Manchester covers a huge range of property types within just a few miles: narrow Victorian terraces through Chorlton, Levenshulme and Rusholme, bay-fronted Edwardian semis and villas around Didsbury and Whalley Range, and the wider 1930s semis found across Burnage, Northenden and Wythenshawe. A homeowner in one of these areas is usually facing a different layout problem to a homeowner in another, which is why Multicare works out the right approach on a case-by-case basis rather than offering a single standard installation.
Stiltz homelifts fit well across this mix because they’re self-supporting. There’s no need for a structural shaft or a load-bearing wall to come out, so a lift can typically go into a Chorlton terrace as readily as a detached property in south Manchester.
Speak to Multicare about which Stiltz model suits your Manchester home.
What to Expect From a Manchester Home Survey
In a narrow terrace, the survey usually focuses on finding a spot that doesn’t take a room out of daily use, often a corner of the ground-floor reception room or a hallway recess next to the stairs. In a larger Edwardian semi or villa around Didsbury or Whalley Range, there’s generally more flexibility, and a lift can often go above an existing understairs cupboard or into a box room.
Every installation starts with a free, no-obligation home survey. An advisor will visit your Manchester property, look at your floor plan and ceiling structure, and talk through which Stiltz model and route through the house works best for you.

What our customers have said..
Due to living in an upside down Bungalow with steps down to the road we didn’t think we could have any sort of lift other than an external platform lift. After having Multicare come and take a look we were surprised that we could have a lift down to our garage beneath our landing floor. The lads were fantastic and the works involved (shaft, removing walls and hole in the floor) were carried out with minimum disruption. The lift is a life saver! Thank you Multicare for providing us with something we never thought possible!
Mr Norris – Duo Vista (New)
I really appreciate your advice and Mark and Gareth were great. They were highly skilled in many ways and always left the place tidy. They made a good job of cleaning up – 180 years of dust and soot came down when they cut into the landing ceiling!! Think they appreciated the flow of tea and coffee. Babs is getting used to it. Until she is confident in using up I am using the remote to send her up and down. I have found it useful for taking stuff up and down stairs so all together money well spent!
Mr Driver – Duo Vista (Reconditioned)
We originally had Multicare attend our home to measure up for a stairlift. Whilst the surveyor was measuring our stairs we noticed an advert on TV of a Stiltz lift. We asked the surveyor if Multicare was able to provide a quote for a Duo+ lift also. After careful consideration we decided to opt for the Duo+. Within a week from placing the order Multicare had completed the full installation of our HomeLift and what an improvement to our lives it has been. Thank you so much for your services
Mr Cadman – Duo+ (New)
After my wife was admitted to hospital and we realised that our stairlift would no longer be adequate to help her get upstairs easily, we asked Multicare HomeLifts to assess our home for the suitability of a home lift. After the pleasant survey and help that Gareth gave us we decided to go with Multicare Homelifts as they were one the only companies we found able to install a reconditioned lift to suit our price range. From start to finish the engineers were fantastic, and very accommodating. With little mess and tremendous hard work the complete job was finished in 3 days and I was able to welcome my wife home from hospital. A fantastic service from all.
Mr Benson – Duo Classic (Reconditioned)
We are writing to express our thanks for the excellent work carried out on installation of our Trio+ lift. When you came to help us decide whether a stair lift or an internal lift was needed to assist me in getting upstairs, you were extremely helpful,courteous and professional whilst being friendly. You fully explained how the lift would work and how much room it would take up, the templates being very useful in helping imagine the size of the proposed lift. At no time did we feel pressured into making a decision. The structural work was carried out neatly with minimum mess or dust. Had the manufacturers been able to deliver the lift on time then the install would have been completed in four days. As it was, there was only a few days delay. The “Starship Enterprise” as we have named it is working well and making an improvement to our daily life. A big thank you to you and all your crew
Mrs Howard – Trio+ (New)
Every home should have a Stiltz lift. Having the lift installed has completely changed my dad’s life. Although he has no desire to leave the home he shared with Mum for 50 years, he’s lonely now that Mum has passed away, and needs the company of his family. But he could not manage our stairs, and so could not stay for long periods, and never over night. With the lift our house is totally accessible for him – he can go upstairs and down faster than we can! It’s far safer than the chairlift he has at home, and my two year old granddaughter loves it too. The installation went very smoothly, with Multicare sorting everything, with no fuss and very little mess. We are very satisfied customers

Home Lifts Manchester FAQs
Layout has more impact on price than the general area. A straightforward route through a 1930s semi in somewhere like Northenden is usually simpler to fit than a narrow Victorian terrace needing more careful planning around joists and stairwell space. Your free survey confirms a personalised quote.
Most domestic homelift installations fall outside planning permission requirements. If your property is in one of Manchester’s conservation areas, such as parts of Chorlton, Didsbury Village or Victoria Park, it’s worth flagging this at survey stage so we can confirm whether anything extra applies.
Most Stiltz installations are completed in a single day. More complex routes through solid older construction can occasionally take a little longer, and your surveyor will confirm timings upfront.
Yes, the Trio+ is built specifically for full-sized wheelchair users and comfortably fits up to three people.
Every Stiltz lift includes a built-in battery backup, so it continues to operate safely even if the power goes out.
