"The ramp installation has given me back some of the freedom that I have so dearly missed." — Greg

After a life-changing surgery, Greg was confined to his home for months. Our team worked with him to find an accessible ramp solution that restored something priceless: independence.

Yves helped him select the right ramp, then Dave and Claude ensured a smooth, professional installation from start to finish.

Stories like Greg’s remind us why accessibility work matters.

If you or someone you care about is navigating new mobility challenges, we’re here to help you explore your options.

After six months in rehab, Pepper's sister was finally coming home. But independent living would only be possible with the right support.

When her Sara Stedy lift rental was ending, Conval-Aid delivered a loaner with just one day's notice, then seamlessly swapped it for her permanent unit. Our team managed all documentation & invoicing directly, so there was no paperwork stress on their family.

"The Sara Stedy has been essential to her independence… Conval-Aid's staff were consistently helpful, patient, and attentive to her unique needs, always ensuring my sister's best interests were at the forefront."

We're honoured to support people to reclaim their independence at home. If you're navigating a similar transition, we're here to help anytime!

❄️ Winter is here. Is your wheelchair ready?

Here’s how to stay safe, mobile, and confident:

🔧 Get a winter tune-up – Cold weather makes small issues big problems.

🔄 Swap to winter tires – Softer rubber & grippy treads = better traction.

🔋 Charge fully – Batteries drain faster in the cold. Always start at 100%.

🧣 Layer smart – Dress in layers. Waterproof outer layer + warm gloves for manual chairs.

✨ Stay visible – Add lights and reflective gear for early sunsets.

🕹️ Protect your joystick – A moisture-resistant cover prevents snow damage.

👥 Use the buddy system – Tell someone your route & return time, or travel with a friend.

Winter doesn’t have to limit your independence. But a little prep goes a long way toward safe winter activities!

Need winter tires or an inspection? We’ve got you covered!
