A chair you can getout of again.
Raisers that lift your favourite chair, bed, or sofa to a height you can stand up from on your own. No need to buy new furniture.
A good chair,just too low.
A lower seat makes your knees and hips work harder to stand up. A sofa you have loved for years can become one you need a hand out of.
Raising it by a few centimetres can fix that. You keep your own furniture, and you don’t need to buy a lift chair.
It works for beds and sofas too. We can even raise a front-loading washing machine, so you don’t bend to the floor every wash.

Good to knowbefore you book.
We check the furniture first
Lifting furniture can make it less steady. We check the legs and frame, and watch you sit and stand, before fitting anything.
Some furniture can’t be raised safely
Furniture on wheels, and thin or angled legs, often can’t. We will tell you, and suggest another way.
How itworks.
Home visit
We check your furniture and set the right height with you sitting in it.
A clear, fixed quote
You get a written price, set out so your plan manager, case manager, or occupational therapist can approve it easily.
Fitted in one or two visits
Plastic raisers can often go in on the first visit. Custom timber raisers are made to measure, then fitted on a second.
Backed by warranty
All work is done by licensed tradespeople and backed by the relevant warranties.
Who wehelp.
Older people
A few centimetres can mean standing up without needing a hand.
After a hip or knee replacement
When you have been told not to sit below a certain height.
Anyone who loves their furniture
Keep the chair you like, instead of buying a lift chair.
Carers and family
Helping someone up from a low seat can hurt your back. A higher seat means less lifting.
Add a railto hold.
A higher seat means less pushing. A rail beside the chair, bed, or toilet gives you something to pull on too. We usually fit both on the same visit.
