The Medway towns
Lift support for
your building.
We welcome enquiries from lift owners, property managers, housing providers and facilities teams across Chatham, Rochester, Gillingham, Rainham and Strood. Include the full site address when you call, particularly if the building has several entrances or more than one lift.
If you manage a block of flats, tell us whether residents have another lift available. For a workplace or goods lift, explain the operating hours and any deliveries or access needs affected by the fault. Those details help us understand your priorities.
Our engineering and technical workshop is in Rochester, where we carry out electronic repairs and advanced diagnostics on lift equipment. Our head office is in Dartford. Call with your Medway postcode to discuss attendance or planned work.

Useful to know
Your questions,
answered.
Can I call about a one-off lift repair in Medway?
Yes. You do not need a Forge maintenance contract to enquire about a repair. Call with the postcode, lift details and symptoms, and tell us whether anyone is trapped. The team will discuss the next step and availability.
What should I send for a maintenance enquiry?
Include the number and type of lifts, the site address and recent service records. Let us know about any recurring faults and the timing of your current agreement so we can discuss a suitable proposal.
Can you help with work identified in an examination report?
Send the complete report with the lift identification and site contact. Forge can discuss the repairs or specified tests it calls for. Independent thorough examination is a separate service arranged through a third-party provider.
Do you cover properties beyond Medway?
Yes. Our wider Kent coverage includes Dartford, Gravesend, Maidstone, Canterbury, Ashford and the coast. For sites across several towns, send each postcode so we can discuss the arrangements.

Engineering & technical workshop
Advanced diagnostics.
Here in Rochester.
Our engineering and technical workshop in Rochester is where we carry out electronic repairs and advanced diagnostics on lift equipment. It supports our work for clients across Kent and the Medway towns.
For suitable control boards, drives and other electronic equipment, we assess the fault and whether repair is appropriate. The component’s condition and available support inform the next step.
Our head office is in Dartford. Contact the Forge team with the equipment details and fault history before arranging any workshop assessment or sending components.
