When the stairs become the problem, most families face the same choice: give up the upstairs bedroom, or move. A stair lift is usually the far less disruptive answer, and it can often be installed without altering the staircase itself.
What to know about stair lifts in Sunrise

Common questions — Sunrise
- Do you serve all of Sunrise?
- Yes. We cover Sunrise and the surrounding Broward County area. The in-home assessment is free and there is no obligation to move forward.
- How soon can work start in Sunrise?
- Most projects are installed within about a week of the assessment. Where a permit or an HOA or condo association approval is required, that step is identified during the assessment so the timeline is clear up front.
- Straight or curved — how do I know?
- A staircase that runs in one unbroken line may work with a straight rail. Bends, landings, or turns generally need a custom-measured curved solution. Product compatibility and pricing should be confirmed in the contractor's written quote.
- Does it need special wiring?
- Many stair lifts use a nearby standard household outlet to charge their batteries, but product and power requirements vary. The selected contractor should inspect the outlet location and identify any electrical work in the quote.
- What happens in a power outage?
- Many models use rechargeable batteries and can complete a limited number of trips during an outage. Ask the contractor to explain the selected model's battery capacity, charging points, maintenance, and manual-lowering procedure.
- Does it damage the staircase?
- Many systems mount the rail to the stair treads rather than the wall. Mounting and removal still leave site-specific work, so ask the contractor to explain attachment points, finish protection, and restoration before signing.
