Renovations & existing homes

Keep the home you love.
Plan for what comes next.

A home lift can make moving between levels easier. For an existing property, the first step is checking how the lift, building and delivery access can work together. City VT accepts renovation enquiries across SA and Victoria, with suitability and service arrangements confirmed for your location.

Australian-made modular home lift

Find a position that works every day

Think about where you enter the lift on each level and the rooms you use most. A good position should allow comfortable movement around the landing as well as space for the lift itself.

Tell us about any wheelchair, walking-frame or assistance requirements. The selected cabin, door clearances and approach space need to be checked for your intended use.

  • A floor plan showing the levels to connect
  • Photographs of the proposed lift position
  • Any mobility requirements or space constraints
  • Whether you expect to remain in the home during works

Check the path into the property

The modular lift is craned into place, so exterior access matters as much as the internal layout. Street width, overhead obstructions, the crane setup area and neighbouring buildings may affect suitability.

Send photographs from the street through to the proposed position. A modular system will not suit every existing home; an assessment should establish this before detailed design or purchasing decisions.

Understand the building work

An existing-home installation may involve structural openings, supports, electrical work, weatherproofing and reinstatement. The scope depends on the selected configuration and building.

Bring your builder or designer into the discussion early. Confirm who is responsible for approvals, site preparation, delivery access, installation and finishing work in the written proposal.

Prepare for a useful first conversation

Share your suburb, approximate timing, number of levels and a short description of what you need. Upload plans or photos with your enquiry, even if the plans are still preliminary.

Our management team brings over 80 years of combined lift industry experience. We will help you work through the questions that shape a practical project scope.

Good questions

Before you
take the next step.

That depends on the home and selected configuration. Structural changes and site preparation must be assessed individually; a photograph or generic layout cannot confirm the required work.

Yes. Start with your suburb, photographs and a simple explanation of the levels you want to connect. We can discuss the information needed for the next stage.

Discuss occupation, safe access, noise and the work sequence with your builder and project team. We do not promise that a home can remain occupied for every installation.
