Why a Home Elevator Is More Than Just a Lift
It’s the freedom to stay in the home you love, safely and comfortably.
As we age, the stairs that were once second nature can become daily challenges—or even hazards. Whether it’s aching joints, a recent fall, or simply the desire to stay in the home you love, a home elevator offers a solution that’s both practical and reassuring.
Designed to move you—and the things you carry—between floors with ease, a residential elevator brings peace of mind, long-term comfort, and continued independence.
Today’s lifts are sleek, compact, and customizable. Whether you’re building a new or updating an older home, our elevators fit effortlessly into your space without the need for bulky shafts or machine rooms.

Home Elevator Cost & Value
Every home—and every homeowner—has different needs. Costs depend on your layout, number of floors, and design preferences.
Many of our customers assume a home elevator will be complicated or costly. But once they speak with our team, they’re often surprised by how straightforward—and affordable—the process can be.
At PVE, we keep it simple: no hidden fees, no heavy construction—just smart,
space-saving design that fits your home and your budget.
Initial Costs vs.
Long-Term Maintenance
Your initial investment includes the elevator system itself, installation, and any prep work needed for your home. But unlike traditional elevators, PVE’s air-powered lifts are designed with fewer parts, no hydraulic oil, and no machine room—meaning fewer service calls and less upkeep over time.
Factors That Affect Pricing
A few things can shape the final cost: how many stops you need, the size of your lift, the finishes you choose, and how your home is built. Some homes require more prep, while others are install-ready. Either way, our team will guide you through what’s essential and what’s optional.

Testimonials
I thoroughly enjoy riding in my PVE elevator as its extremely comfortable… I would unhesitatingly, recommend it to people who are confined to a wheelchair like myself, to me it’s that good and reliable!
My house was built in 1925 and it was hard to get something to fit in with the décor of my home, but the PVE fit in perfectly. I am thrilled with the design, engineering, and reliability of the elevator by PVE.
Highly recommend. Working with PVE was such an incredible experience! From our very first meeting they were so professional, time efficient & helpful. Couldn’t be happier. Our elevator is heaven sent. Thank you PVE & team.
