Help & Advice

We do hire manual wheelchairs on a daily or weekly basis, these are occasional wheelchairs and this service is mostly used for hospital visits, holidays or special occasions where you need a little more help.

Unfortunately we do not hire any other items, we also do not loan equipment, the cost to clean the items on return and the storage space required for a significant range of product does not make it viable

We are always interested in purchasing good conditioned mobility scooters and stairlifts, as we do not sell other reconditioned items we do not buy any other items.

You do not need a driving licence to drive a mobility scooter, however you need to be fully aware that you will be responsible for a moving vehicle in and around other people and vehicles. There is also no legal requirement to have insurance, however we strongly recommend that you do take out insurance with a reputable provider. We, when you purchase a new or recondition mobility scooter, will provide some information on such a company who will guide you through your options

Yes we stock a wide range of covers, waterproof clothing, bags and brackets to carry walking stick or cylinders, if you have such a requirement then speak to our team and we will advice which options are available to you

Yes, all Funiture will be set up and delivered locally free of charge. We will give a full demonstration, leave a users manual and remove all packaging from site

Unfortunately no. We are unable to disposed of these large items and would recommend that you contact your local authority or a responsible waste carrier and ask how they can be recycled.

Yes we sure can, its an old myth that stairlift’s  fix to a solid wall. Our stairlifts will be fixed to the stair tread itself, normally screwed through the carpet. Depending on which model of stairlift you require there will be a fixing every-other step with either 3 or 4 screws per fixing. the only items that will be fixed to the wall will be the charger and the remote controls

Depending on the model of stairlift we are installing, we will be completing a straight installation in around 2-4 hours and a curved one in around 4-5 hours. Longer lengths of curved stairlift may take longer as will fixings to concrete stairs. Disruption will be minimum as we will only require clear access to the staircase.

We will protect surrounding areas, but if you have important items around the stairs it will be safe to have them removed prior to our arrival. As we are not fixing to the walls, there will be very little drilling, noise or dust. If we do make a mess our engineers are house trained and will hover away any mess!!

Depending the length of time the stairlift has been installed it maybe that we may purchase the stairlift back, however this will depend on our stock levels at the time but will always favour our own installed stairlifts.

Once removed, there will be indentation in the carpet where the fixing brackets were located, there are some trick on how to return the pile back but check with your carpet supplier how they would recommend you should, other than this it will be hard to tell one was ever installed.

Yes, some lighter than others but all are at least Aluminium. Different rollators are more suited to differing needs so ones built for ‘off-road’ walking will be heavier than those designed for everyday pavement use. Be careful there are some very light weight ones on the internet which will be flimsy and not very robust!

Our team will advise on the correct setting of handles on all the aids we provide, generally they should be wrist height, however differing medical conditions may change this rule, professional medical advice should be obtain if you have such conditions or discomfort with your current walking aid.

Not all wheelchairs will be suitable for this type of vehicle, If you have intentions of using these then make it know to out team, we can advice which is the correct crash tested wheelchair will be suitable

Most of the time a standard 18″ wide chair will be adequate. However we can complete a full wheelchair assessment which we can complete in our shop or privately on a home visit. We can provide wheelchairs to suit children right through to larger heavy duty wheelchairs. we can also bespoke a chair based on physical needs with an array of backrests, chassis and the ability to tilt the wheelchairs, we are sure we can provide a comfortable and reliable solution.
