How We Repair Your Drive DeVilbiss Patient Lift
Home medical equipment such as oxygen concentrators, CPAP machines, hospital beds and patient lifts must be serviced to the manufacturer's standards.
Every Drive DeVilbiss model has its own parts list, so we start with the model and serial number on the rating label. That tells us the correct parts and any known issues or service bulletins for your unit.
Safety first: If you depend on this equipment for breathing, contact your medical equipment supplier first and keep a backup ready. Call 911 in an emergency.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Drive DeVilbiss Patient Lift Repair cost in South Carolina?
Most patient lift repairs fall between $100–$450 including parts and labor. The final price depends on the part that failed and your model. You get an exact quote after the diagnosis and before any work starts.
Can you repair my patient lift today?
Same-day visits depend on technician availability in South Carolina. Call (844) 442-1500 early in the day for the best chance of a same-day or next-day appointment.
Is the repair guaranteed?
Yes. Parts and labor are covered by our 90-day warranty. If the same problem comes back within that time, we return and fix it.
Do you work on all Drive DeVilbiss models?
We repair current and older Drive DeVilbiss models. Some discontinued parts can be hard to find; if that is the case for your model, we tell you before you pay for a repair.
Should I repair or replace my patient lift?
A patient lift typically lasts about 5 to 10 years. If yours is well inside that range and the repair costs less than half the price of a new one, repairing usually makes sense. Near the end of its life, or when the repair costs more than half of a replacement, replacing is often the better value. We give you an honest opinion either way.
