Covid-19 Statement

These are exceptional times. With Coronavirus – Covid-19 - we all face an unprecedented global challenge. Stiltz Ltd. continue to review activities on a daily basis to comply with Government directives.

Stiltz is a proud member of the British Healthcare Trades Association (BHTA) through which we are co-ordinating industry efforts to keep our customers mobile. Our priority is to ensure all current and prospective customers are able to maintain safe and independent access with the help of their homelift, as reducing accidents within the home at this time will, in turn, assist in reducing stress on the NHS hospital care system. We will endeavour to provide the expected levels of service and support to those seeking a new homelift installation or those requiring lift service/maintenance, while being mindful to minimise risk.

We have therefore implemented additional processes to mitigate risk to you, our staff and the wider Stiltz community:

As a matter of course, we will check with all customers and prospective customers requesting them to confirm nobody is unwell with Covid-19 at the property we are due to visit. If Covid-19 is confirmed, we will follow Government advice
All customer visits will be subject to additional sanitation measures. Stiltz staff will wash or sanitise their hands prior to entering your property, and upon leaving. They will not offer to shake hands, and will maintain the prescribed 2 metre distance
Regular health and safety bulletins will be issued to all office and field-based staff
All field-based staff will be asked, on a daily basis, to confirm they are clear to work as per NHS and Government Guidance
All staff who fall ill with Covid-19 or who are self-isolating, will receive full pay during the period they are indisposed.

Stiltz will closely monitor the situation and follow government advice at all times. Our priority is to manage customer and staff safety, whilst continuing to provide our customers with the necessary homecare support to ensure their valued independence.

Why Move Home When You Don’t Need To?

Sep 28, 2015 | Uncategorised

Many homeowners look to downsize to a bungalow when they start to have difficulties with the stairs.

But when people have spent decades living in a home they love, it can be very stressful and emotional moving house. Even the prospect of selling up can often be a daunting experience as it can be hard leaving friends and neighbours behind.

Moving to a new area can also be challenging as it may take time to adjust to new surroundings and get to know people. However now an increasing number of homeowners are beginning to realise that with a domestic lift there is no reason to move house.

A home lift, such as the Stiltz Duo Lift, can be installed almost anywhere in a home because of its unique features. Unlike other home lifts on the market, the Stiltz domestic lifts range do not use hydraulics so no complex structural work is required. There is also no need for the lift to be fixed to the wall or floor.

All Stiltz Home Lifts are powered by an electric motor that sits on the top of the lift and plugs straight into the wall using a normal 13 amp power socket. It travels using Stiltz’s innovative dual rail technology.

When moving house, it can be very expensive with stamp duty, cost to move, solicitors’ fees and survey fees all added in. This makes having a domestic lift installed an even more attractive option as it can be a very cost-effective solution.

Prices start from £11,950 including all standard site preparation work and standard installation costs for a Stiltz Lift. A Stiltz Lift is also an investment as it can add actual value to a property.

Refurbing a house can also be costly and building work may take a long time to complete and be very disruptive. But the intelligent design of the Stiltz Lift means that it can be fitted in a fraction of a time with a typical installation taking around a day.

More importantly, aside from not having to move home, there is the positive affect a home lift can have on a homeowner’s lifestyle and their independence. It is not only a very convenient solution but it means people can move between the upstairs and downstairs of the home easily and safely.

Stiltz also offers a wheelchair lift version, the Stiltz Trio Lift, as an option which is big enough to accommodate a standard-sized wheelchair and has all the same benefits as its counterpart, the Stiltz Duo Lift.
