Rochdale was a woollen cloth town from the 1500s before cotton took over in the 19th century, and in 1844 the Rochdale Pioneers opened their shop on Toad Lane, regarded as the birthplace of the modern co-operative movement. Much of the town is made up of stone or red-brick terraced houses from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, alongside converted mills. Those terraces usually have narrow, steep stairs, and fitting the right slim stairlift to them is a large part of our work here.

Stairlifts in the Roch Valley and South Pennine Foothills
Rochdale lies in the valley of the River Roch in the foothills of the South Pennines, around 137 metres above sea level, and towns such as Littleborough and Wardle climb towards the moors. Hillside streets mean some homes have steps outside as well as stairs inside, so we can supply outdoor stairlifts alongside indoor models. Whether you live near the Grade I listed Town Hall, Toad Lane or out in Milnrow, our surveyor will check every set of steps that matters to you.
