A lift quotation usually covers the lift equipment and installation, not the building work around it. Budgeting for civil work separately avoids surprises. Here is what it includes.
Typical civil and related work
| Item | Notes |
|---|---|
| Shaft walls | Built to drawing size and plumb |
| Pit | Depth, waterproofing and drainage |
| Overhead slab and beam | Supports for the machine |
| Machine room | If required by lift type |
| Landing finishes | Door frames, flooring and cladding |
| Power supply | Dedicated supply, earthing, panel |
| Scaffolding and access | Often excluded |
How to budget
- Ask the lift company for shaft drawings with dimensions.
- Ask your contractor to price civil work.
- Add power and finishing.
- Compare total cost across options.
