Home Repairs For Mobility Aids
We are often able to carry out home repairs for those who have in-home equipment that is not working correctly.
Whether it’s a power bed or a stair lift, our engineers can come to your home and carry out any repairs that can be completed on-site. For larger repairs, we can also take your equipment to Irvine to repair and then re-deliver it to your home.
As part of our home call-out service, we always look to empower customers with good maintenance and troubleshooting knowledge to reduce risk of future repairs being needed.
From helping you to hard reset a unit, to helping identify buttons that could have been accidentally hit, leading to the equipment not working properly, we’re always keen to help our customers better their knowledge of their mobility equipment, especially if that means we can diagnose a problem over the phone.
Extensive Repair Report And Actionable Advice
We will let you know exactly what procedures have been undertaken during your repair or service by providing you with a repair report for your equipment.
We can repair most equipment brands and have parts available from almost all manufacturers, including Pride Mobility, Invacare, Sunrise Medical, Drive DeVilbiss, Kymco, Electric Mobility, Quantum, Motion Healthcare and many more.
As well as a report that shows what we have done, we are able to provide practical advice to help you keep on top of maintenance with key spot checks.
Annual Mobility Equipment Service
We recommend getting your mobility equipment serviced on a yearly basis, to help it function properly. It also means that faults can be detected early before they grow into bigger problems which will be more costly in the long run. There are a variety of issues that can occur with mobility scooters and powerchairs, relating to the following:
- Ignition switch
- Potentiometer
- Tyres
- Batteries
- Motor
Our Service Engineers will be able to identify any problems with your mobility vehicle early and replace any specific parts that have faltered. This will help to prevent further damage which could lead to the need for a brand new replacement vehicle.
If you need parts for your equipment or simply just want it checked over, please call us on 01294 313369 for information and pricing. We offer our repair services all across the West of Scotland
