Frequently Asked Questions
What if your engineer upon their visit, realises they can't fix my equipment?
If our engineer deems that your equipment is not fixable upon their visit, then they will check to see if they can order which parts need replacing.
If our engineer cannot identify upon their visit which parts are faulty and a more thorough investigation is required back at one of our repair hubs, then the fees to transport your equipment back to one of our hubs will apply. Should you need your equipment redelivered back to you, then we will have to charge for redelivery also.
Please note, that if your item is within it's warranty term and is a manufacturing fault, no fees will be applied.
Why do you charge more for customers further away than 30 minutes.
Unfortunately, due to our head office being located in Macclesfield, Cheshire, we have to decide on a cut off distance to charge more for customers further away. A flat fee of £110 for customers outside of a 30 minutes radius covers our cost to send a van and an engineer to the customer and back again.
Please remember that call out fees are only for those customers who are either outside of their warranty term or are in need of a repair that isn't covered under their warranty.
Do I have to pay for an engineer call out or repair, if my product is faulty under warranty?
All our products come with a minimum 12 months manufacturers warranty.
We offer on all our products parts and labour cover under the warranty terms. Meaning should you experience an issue or fault with your item, then we do not charge for call outs, item collection or repairs under you warranty.
Please read your user manual to understand what is covered under you warranty. Some parts such as batteries will have a shorter warranty length.
What happens if your engineers have fixed my equipment, but the same issue appears a short time later?
If on the rare occasion, our engineer team haven't quite resolved your issue, and you are still experiencing issues, then no charge will be applied to re-attempt to fix your equipment.
How long will it take for an engineer to visit me?
Engineer call out times vary dependent on where the customer is located. We can get an engineer site visit arranged more swiftly for customers within a 30 minutes radius of our Macclesfield Head Office.
If we can't arrange for an engineer to get out to you quick enough, we often arrange to have your item collected by one of our courier partners, where it is brought back to our repair division allowing our engineers to assess and work on your issue quickly.
Can you fix my mobility equipment, even if I haven't bought it from you?
Unfortunately not.
We can only offer our repair and aftersales services to customers who have bought products from us.
Should you wish to order parts like batteries, tyres, chargers or any compatible accessories for products that are within our range, then our team can more than assist you.
We can't offer any repairs or servicing on non customer products as we don't know the history of the equipment.
Are there any parts of the UK which your engineers cannot visit?
Our engineers cannot visit Northern Ireland or any of the isles. We still service all mainland UK, including the Highlands and Wales.
We can still supply parts to any of our customers, no matter where you may be located, we just can't physically send an engineer to Northern Ireland or any of the isles.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work with care homes?
Yes! We work with a number of independent care homes and groups around the UK. We understand that care homes and similar organisations such as hospitals, charities, medical centres and more will require their equipment to stay in tip top shape.
We offer individual equipment prices or catered care home packages, in which for a monthly fee we will provide free call outs and servicing all year round. Please contact our aftersales team to learn more.
Will you tell me the cost to replace any faulty parts before doing any work?
We will always offer a 100% transparent service. Should your equipment require any replacement parts to get the issue resolved, then we will inform you of the cost to replace and fix your equipment before doing any work.
Do I legally require a service for my equipment?
In short no. There is no law that states that you are legally required to have an annual service conducted on your mobility equipment. You can opt not to have your equipment serviced during the lifetime of it's use.
We however recommend booking your equipment in for an annual service once a year, to make sure your item is working properly and thus this prevents any avoidable issues later down the line which might require costly repairs.
Will I be reminded when my annual service is due?
For all new equipment we sell, our team will send a SMS reminder to your mobile to highlight that your equipment is due for it's annual service.
For all second hand equipment or for customers that bought their item elsewhere, you will have to book your own service in by contacting our aftersales team.
Looking After Your Powered Mobility Equipment
The main component in looking after any equipment that relies on its batteries to get them from A to B, is of course to look after the batteries.
Here are the main principles to follow:
- When first receiving your item, charge your battery for a minimum of 14 hours.
- Avoid running your batteries completely flat.
- Avoid short burst charges (i.e., 2-3 hours).
- If using daily, a good habit is to charge your battery each night ready for the next day.
- If using once or twice per week, then charging 1-2 times per week is perfectly fine.
- Don't leave your batteries idle without charge for a long period of time.
- If storing for a period of time, fully charge your battery for a minimum of 14 hours.
- Only use the charger that was provided.
- Try to keep your scooter or powerchair dry and indoors if possible.
Finally, we always advise that our customers adhere to getting their mobility equipment booked in for an annual service. This allow us to check over and make sure your equipment is working properly.
