"They were fine and installed the stairlift as soon as possible. I neglected to ascertain whether my mother would use it. As it turned out, she refused, so it was useless for my mother and now she is deceased. I am very happy with the lift and its performance. I use it on occasion. Also, be aware that it will limit the clearance on your stairway, so would be in the way of moving larger items upstairs unless they can be moved BY the lift. It is helpful for moving heavy or bulky items that will fit on the seat or foot platform."

"Larry took on the incredibly ambitious project of renovating our 1914 Craftsman home, repainting the exterior, expanding the primary bathroom, refinishing floors, decking, stairwells, expanding and updating the kitchen, updating electrical and heating systems to modern standards, and so much more.The project is almost complete, but we were so excited that we wanted to write the review anyway! Throughout the process, Larry and his crew worked tirelessly to get things done, always focusing on quality and making sure we were happy with the work. Even partway through the project, neighbors were already commenting on how much they loved his color choices, and how much he and his crew cared about the project. Even given how large the project was, Larry and his crew tackled it head-on and got it done; he really brought out what made this home so special to us. We're really happy to have had the chance to work with Larry, and are really appreciating how wonderful our new home is thanks to him and his crew."

"We were so pleased with the quality of work performed by Tall Pines Construction on our large, extensive bathroom remodel that we hired Tall Pines to install new flooring--engineered acacia wood--throughout our entire home (except for the bathrooms). It was a huge job, but we're so glad we did it. The floors look like a work of art. While doing the floors, Tall Pines also changed all our floor boards and interior trim around windows and doors to give our house a sharp new appearance and feel. The crew were a delight to work with and to have in our home. Late August while having some siding work and shingle replacement done on our exterior, rot was discovered in two areas. We called Tall Pines, and they quickly came out to the house, assessed the damage and repaired it before the rains set it. We believe in relationship building with service companies.Tall Pines is a company you can work with for the long run. We highly recommend them."

"I am a repeat customer, so I knew the carpenter, Joe, coming in. I started by using their design contractor. I gave her the colors and ideas (beach theme, ceramic wood-look floor tiles), and she pulled the rest together. Invaluable because I can't trust my own taste. They removed a square shower in the corner and a set of shelves next to it, and glassed in that end of the room for a full shower. We put tile down along the whole room, with a recessed shower pan, and a linear drain against the wall. Joe built-in medicine cabinets, and trim all around the room, per my design pictures. The subs included a glass door guy, the plumber, the tiler, painter, and the countertop slab tiler. We also had some work done in our hallway. They removed the single boob light from the middle, and installed two recessed lights on either end, along with putting two switch boxes on either end of the hallway. Joe built a floor to ceiling cabinet in a 13” dead space at the end of the hallway, which included a laundry hamper on tracks, cubbies, and shelves. And then on a whim, I asked to have our old hallway linen cupboard doors replaced to match the new ones. We had two leaks during and after, but one reason I would use them again, is how they handled both times. One was a leak from the plug on the toilet supply. We found it on a Saturday morning, and I ended up waking up our carpenter with my text. He came out and figured it out and fixed it by 1. The other one was after everything was done and cleaned up, and we had paid for everything. The basement bathroom ceiling, fan, and wall below the master was wet one day, and we realized a joint in the pipe from the master toilet to the stack was slowly dripping between the two rooms. I texted Joe again, and he referred me to our GC, who came out with a plumber and fixed it. They had to make a hole in the downstairs drywall, so he has been coming back regularly to put three layers of mud on the new drywall. I was so sure that they would regretfully find that it wasn't their fault and we would have to deal with the cost and bother of finding a plumber and carpenter. Start to finish, it took about four months, but three weeks of that was the initial tile order, and another three for an incorrect tile order."

Yes, if accessibility is a priority, installing a home elevator is often a better choice than a stair lift. Elevators allow for the safe transport of people, items, and mobility equipment like walkers or wheelchairs between floors. While stair lifts are less expensive and easier to install, they don't accommodate mobility equipment, which can limit independence for those with reduced mobility.
Installing a home elevator takes between two and four weeks from the start of site preparation to the final inspection, depending on the complexity of your project and any specific modifications needed for your home. More complex installations that require significant structural adjustments can extend the timeline to several weeks or even months. Always consult with professional installers to get a detailed schedule tailored to your project requirements.
Regular maintenance is essential to ensure your elevator's safety and longevity. With proper care, your home elevator can remain operational for decades. Cable-driven models require cable replacement every five years to meet safety standards. Regular professional service and scheduled inspections address wear and tear, ensuring your elevator performs reliably over its lifespan.
Choosing an elevator type depends on your priorities. If you want to add a luxurious feature to your home, a glass, vacuum-powered, pneumatic elevator might be the right choice. If accessibility in a smaller home is a bigger concern, a simple vertical lift platform may be best. If you're retrofitting, a shaftless elevator or gearless traction elevator might be the best option.
Home elevators are safe when installed by licensed professionals who adhere to strict building codes and inspections. A comprehensive home inspection ensures that every component meets established safety standards. Incorporating additional safety overrides and advanced security devices further enhances operation, with some features costing an extra $2,500. These measures guarantee a reliable and secure system for your home.
Stair lifts cost between $2,000 and $20,000 and serve as an affordable alternative to home elevators, especially for individual mobility on stairs. However, stair lifts do not transport larger items or mobility equipment such as wheelchairs. Professional installation is required to ensure safe operation, and you should carefully assess your specific accessibility requirements before choosing between these options.
