Frequently Asked Questions
What can you remove?
Loose rugs, trailing cables, raised thresholds, clutter in walkways, unstable furniture - anything causing trip risks. We remove or fix depending on the hazard.
What if I want to keep something?
We can often make things safer rather than removing. Rugs can be secured, cables can be routed, thresholds can be ramped. Options discussed.
Do you dispose of things?
Yes - rugs, old cables, broken items. We take away and dispose properly. Nothing dumped, everything handled responsibly.
How do I know what needs removing?
We can assess and remove in one visit, or you can point out specific hazards. Either way, we'll check the whole route and advise.
