Independent Lift Consultancy to Support Projects of Every Scale

At TJ Lift Solutions, we provide trusted, professional lift consultancy services to clients across the UK. From early-stage planning and design advice through to condition surveys, specification writing and compliance audits, our experienced consultants deliver impartial, expert guidance on all aspects of vertical transportation systems.

Whether you’re installing new lifts in a residential development, refurbishing an outdated system in a commercial property, or managing a large portfolio with ageing equipment, our independent lift consultancy service ensures that every decision you make is safe, cost-effective, and future-ready.

What Is Lift Consultancy?

Lift consultancy is a professional service that provides technical and strategic guidance on the design, performance, compliance, maintenance, and modernisation of lift systems. Our consultants act independently from manufacturers, ensuring that you receive honest, tailored advice focused solely on your best interests.

We work with architects, developers, property managers, facilities teams, housing associations, and contractors, helping to bridge the gap between technical lift engineering and practical building management.

Our Lift Consultancy Services Include:

Lift audits and condition surveys
Feasibility studies for new lift installations
Advice on EN 81 compliance and British Standards
Design support for new developments or refurbishments
Specification writing and tender support
Modernisation and refurbishment strategy
Asset lifecycle planning and maintenance advice
Compliance assessments (LOLER, PUWER, Equality Act)

We tailor our consultancy approach to suit the building type, usage demands, lifecycle stage, and client priorities—be it performance, accessibility, aesthetics, or energy efficiency.

When You Might Need a Lift Consultant

You’re planning a new development and need vertical transportation advice
Your building has ongoing lift reliability issues or maintenance concerns
You want to explore modernisation or compliance upgrades
You’re preparing for a LOLER inspection or safety audit
You’re managing a residential or commercial portfolio and want condition reports
You want help selecting the most suitable lift type or supplier
You’re seeking an independent view separate from lift manufacturers or service providers

As a knowledgeable partner, we help you make informed decisions that align with your budget, timelines, compliance obligations, and long-term asset strategy.

Lift Design and Specification Support

TJ Lift Solutions can assist at the design stage of a building project, helping you select the right lift system for your requirements. We consider:

Building height and traffic flow
Usage type (passenger, goods, platform, evacuation)
Energy efficiency and sustainability goals
Lift positioning, pit, and shaft dimensions
Accessibility and Part M regulations
Firefighting or evacuation lift compliance

We produce clear technical specifications and can assist with pre-tender assessments, ensuring you get competitive and appropriate proposals from lift contractors.

You’re acquiring or managing a new property
You’re unsure of the lift’s servicing history or asset value
The lift has not been upgraded in several years
You’re evaluating modernisation vs. replacement

Our condition reports include photographs, defect listings, recommendations, and risk ratings, providing you with a clear basis for decision-making and budgeting.
