WHEN TO CONTACT US
Clear Next Steps For Common Lift Problems
- Your lift has stopped: keep users away from the equipment, record any fault display and call the repair team.
- Faults are becoming more frequent: arrange a condition assessment to identify whether targeted repairs or refurbishment offer better value.
- Your maintenance contract is due for review: tell us the lift type, number of visits and support requirements so we can propose an appropriate arrangement.
- You are planning a new lift: share the building plans, intended use, floors served, capacity and accessibility requirements before the site survey.
- A thorough examination has identified defects: send the report so the required remedial work can be assessed separately.
HOW WE HELP
A Practical Route From Enquiry To Completed Work
The precise process depends on whether the requirement is urgent, preventative or project-based, but communication starts with the same essential information.
1. Tell us about the lift
Provide the Wigan site address, lift type, current maintenance arrangements and the problem or project you need help with.
2. Initial assessment
For a fault, we gather symptoms and safety information. For planned work, we establish objectives, access and building constraints.
3. Survey or diagnosis
An engineer examines the equipment or proposed installation so recommendations are based on the actual condition and requirements.
4. Work and follow-up
The agreed work is completed, tested and documented, with maintenance or further recommendations explained where relevant.
LIFT TYPES & BUILDINGS
Support Shaped Around The Equipment & Its Users
Our services cover passenger lifts in offices, apartment buildings and public premises; platform and access lifts; goods and service lifts used in industrial, warehouse and commercial settings; and a range of hydraulic, traction and machine-room-less systems.
The correct maintenance, repair or upgrade recommendation depends on factors such as equipment age, usage, duty, available parts, accessibility needs and how disruption would affect the building. We assess those factors before defining the scope.

WIGAN LIFT SERVICES FAQS
Questions Customers Ask Before Getting In Touch
Are Lancs & Cumbria Lifts based in Wigan?
Yes. Our workshop and operational base is at 3 Seven Stars Road, Wallgate, Wigan WN3 5AT.
Do you provide emergency lift repairs in Wigan?
Yes. We provide 24-hour support for urgent lift faults. Attendance arrangements vary according to the fault, location and engineer availability, so call 01942 242 413 to discuss the situation.
Can you maintain a lift installed by another company?
We work across a wide range of lift systems, including equipment installed or previously maintained by other providers. We will establish the make, model, condition and parts position before confirming the appropriate support.
Which types of lift do you service and repair?
Our work includes passenger, goods, service, platform and access lifts, alongside hydraulic, traction and machine-room-less systems. Contact us with the equipment details if you need confirmation for a specific lift.
How often should a lift be serviced?
The appropriate frequency depends on lift type, usage, environment, manufacturer guidance and operational risk. We can review the equipment and recommend a suitable maintenance schedule.
Can you refurbish an unreliable or ageing lift?
Yes. Depending on its condition, controls, drives, doors, safety equipment and cabin components may be upgraded. A survey helps establish whether repair, phased modernisation or replacement is the appropriate route.
Is lift servicing the same as a LOLER thorough examination?
No. Planned maintenance keeps the lift operating and addresses wear or faults. For lifts used at work, a LOLER thorough examination is a separate statutory examination carried out by a competent person. Any resulting defects may require separate repair work.
Do you install new lifts in existing Wigan buildings?
Yes. A site survey is used to assess space, access, structural constraints, floors served, capacity and user requirements before a suitable lift is specified.
