We're an Acorn affiliate. We earn a commission from Acorn when we refer a customer — paid by Acorn, never added to your price. See our Affiliate Disclosure page.

How much does a stairlift cost?

As a guide, straight stairlifts typically start around £2,000 and curved around £5,000, but Acorn confirms exact pricing after assessing your stairs. See our stairlift costs guide for detail.

Do I have to pay VAT?

Not if you're disabled or have a long-term illness. Eligible customers pay no VAT — a 20% saving — and Acorn applies it automatically.

Can I get help paying for a stairlift?

Possibly. Funding such as the Disabled Facilities Grant may help, and eligible customers pay no VAT. See our funding and grants guide.
