Project description
Our family owns a private two-story house with a residential elevator installed between the first and second floors, and we need a qualified specialist to perform a full inspection and maintenance visit. The lift is a small cabin unit used mainly for accessibility and for moving groceries and luggage between levels, and it has not been professionally checked in a while, so we want someone experienced with home lift systems rather than a general handyman.
The scope of work should include a complete safety and mechanical inspection: checking the drive mechanism (hydraulic pump and cylinder, or the pneumatic vacuum tube and air seals, depending on the system type), inspecting cables, guide rails, rollers and bearings, testing the door interlocks and sensors, verifying the emergency lowering and battery backup function, checking load limits and overload protection, and confirming that the cabin stops level with each floor. We also want lubrication of moving parts, tightening of loose fittings, and a check of the electrical control panel and wiring for wear or corrosion.
After the inspection we expect a written report describing the current condition of the elevator, any worn or aging components that should be replaced soon, and a clear recommendation for the next maintenance date. Photos of any problem areas would be very helpful so we can plan a budget for repairs if needed. If small adjustments or minor part replacements can be done during the same visit, please quote those separately.
The elevator is located inside the house, so the technician must be comfortable working in a residential setting, bring their own basic tools and diagnostic equipment, and take care not to damage flooring or walls near the shaft. We can provide access at a scheduled time convenient for both sides, ideally during a weekday. Please share your relevant experience with residential or home lift equipment, your typical turnaround time, and whether you offer a follow-up warranty period on the maintenance performed. We are looking for a reliable long-term contact for annual servicing, not just a one-time visit, so a good first inspection matters a lot to us.
