Bolton has woven cloth since Flemish weavers settled here in the 14th century, and Samuel Crompton invented the spinning mule in 1779 while living at Hall i’ th’ Wood. By 1929 the town had 216 cotton mills. That mill-town growth left rows of Victorian terraced streets around the centre, with later suburban housing spreading out towards the moors and the outlying townships. We fit stairlifts in both, from narrow terrace stairs to family homes in Horwich and Westhoughton.

Stairlifts for Bolton’s Valley and Moorland Homes
Bolton sits in the foothills of the West Pennine Moors, with Rivington Pike to the north-west and the River Croal running through a steep-sided valley towards the Irwell. Homes on the slopes towards the moors can have steps outside as well as stairs inside, so as well as indoor models we can supply outdoor stairlifts. Whether you live near the Town Hall and Le Mans Crescent, Smithills Hall or out in Horwich, our surveyor will look at every set of steps you use.
