Sal is THE BEST!! He came to my house and repaired a spring for the seat of my power chair, and also tightened up the loose armrests, AND tightened the bracket that holds the chair on the lift. He's a really pleasant person, too! I can't recommend him more! He really knows what he's doing and figured out how to fix my problem on the fly. I'm going to call him for all future work on my chair or the lift. Thanks so much, Sal! read more

Sal is the best !!! He take cares of me from pre sale to after sale, he has vast knowledges of many different products and helps me find the right product and very competitive pricing!! I broke parts on my scooter, call Sal up and he repaired it for me right away !! This kind of service can not be compare to when you buy a scooter online. I choose going to a local store because they were able to match the online prices and I can see the product, test out the product and most important of all is the after sales support Sal provides, yes online store will talk to you on the phone but will ask you to ship the scooter back to them for repair, now at a local business I just take it to him and get it taken care of right then and there! The cool part is people saw my scooter and asked where I got them, I tell them Home Improvement for the disable in Hayward, CA and ask for Sal and many people had visit this place. Remember when you buy a scooter that cost around 2 grand I would want a local sales and support and Sal is your guy !! read more

Sal has again given excellent work and service in fixing my ramp van. Because it is older, there are hard-to-get parts. He went to various places searching, and even picked up and delivered my van to our home. Thank you again, Sal for your dedicated, caring and knowledgeable and professional help! read more

The owners name is Sal and he goes out of his way to help you. He spent 3 hours personally repairing my Rollerator walker's brakes. It took special parts that he crafted himself! He just would not stop until it was perfect. The store has home elevators, wheelchairs, scooters and repair parts. He travels to install medical equipment and repairs medical scooters. He was recommended by a large medical equipment distributor because he does their difficult repair and installations. Sal's shop is easy to find on Mission Blvd. in Hayward. Sal is very busy and may not be available, so call first. read more

There are people you meet on this path that are blessings from above - Sal is one of them. I called Sal to get information about wheelchair accessible transportation for my mom who is disabled due to a progressive neurological degenerative disorder. Prior to speaking with him, I had called several wheelchair accessible vehicle shops, but I dealt with either pushy salespeople who wanted to sell products that were not suitable for my mom or shops that never returned my calls. However, when I called Sal, I not only spoke to someone that is extremely knowledgeable about disability-related modifications, but someone who is genuinely caring and helpful. Even though Sal specializes in home improvement, he spent close to 40 minutes on the phone with me explaining various vehicle modification options for my mom. He even got on Craigslist to look for wheelchair accessible vans and made a few calls on my behalf! That is going above and beyond the call of duty. It is rare to find someone who would go out of their way to be of service. Thank you, Sal. read more

Words can't describe the gratitude I have for Sal's Shop. I came upon his shop hoping to find a scooter for my grandma in Peru , at a reasonable price. After discussing and letting him know my budget , Sal came through with a recondition scooter at a unbelievable cost. I can't thank him enough for the practically donating the scooter . Even though this wasn't for me , the effort and solitude of Sal makes me a lifetime client of his. Talk to the guy , trust me he will make it work !! read more

Sal has worked on my father-in-laws wheelchair a few times. And has repaired it for FAR less than anyone else quoted me!

I don't know why yelp say I'm from Winters lol I live in Napa. WOW Sal is a great guy and knows his stuff. I can call him anytime about my power chair that I bought from him 8 years ago. He is totally up front and always there help me. I cant say enough of great things about his company. Thanks Sal read more

Sal is a terrific person to work with. He's helpful and kind. Back in Feb. my mom was looking for a lift chair and we'd begun to despair but when we went to see Sal, he unboxed a chair for her and put it together on the spot. It was perfect! Now, month's later when I needed advice about moving the chair, he explained everything to me with his usual humor and charm. read more

Sal and his team were great! They provided a timely "tune-up" on my wife's wheelchair, and came up with a great solution to replace the wheelchair ramp at home - even allowing us to try it out first before charging us a fair price when it worked out. HIGHLY recommended! read more

Sal helped us with a used motorized scooter we had bought. The seat was in bad shape and leaning off to the left. He was able to repair it to the point it didn't wobble, nor does it lean off to one side anymore. He made sure the price was affordable, and saved us the cost of buying a new seat. Thank you, Sal. read more

I talked to Sal on the phone about my mobility scooter that I could not get going. I have never been to the store and he gave me a ton of free advice and was so kind and knowledgeable.

Again a very reputable company and great work. read more

Can we give 10 stars? Sal is seriously amazing! We found him through a Yelp search and you will never regret calling him. He is extremely responsive. We had a disabled family member moving in when we realized our lift wasn't working. He came out immediately to fix it. He found a couple of issues with it that the contractor who installed it messed up You do NOT want your lift installed incorrectly. Recently, after working for two months, it quit again. We must have it operational since our family member relies on it to get in and out of the house. We texted Sal and he called and spent 10 minutes on the phone with us troubleshooting. He was able to help us find the issue and correct it same night. We are huge fans of Sal. Do not hesitate to call him! read more

I have been a customer since 2007. My wife had just lost a leg and needed all the stuff that entails. Kaiser helped with some things, but I was left to myself for most of the arrangements. Sal helped me plan household mods. He installed a porch lift and many other details. I needed someone to help me do the right things and know what I needed. He is very knowledgeable in all aspects, fair in his pricing and super helpful in every way. My wife passed on and now I'm the one that needs a scooter and other things. I wouldn't go anywhere else. I just had new batteries installed in my chair; he was as prompt, efficient, and reasonable as ever. Thank you, Sal. read more

Telephoned SAL who responded to provide assistance to repair my 4 wheel walker/rollator. Have been referred to his site by Southwest Airlines contractor when airlines damaged my walker.

Sal is the man! I have a bad back and recently purchased an old camper van with problematic seats for my condition. I was researching replacement seats that would cost a lot at least a grand. Then I went to see Sal, who suggested building me a custom seat bolster to remedy the issue...for less than $100. It's amazing! He's fast, affordable and super skilled. Plus he's a fun character. Highly recommended if you need any odd home or vehicle tweaks for your medical condition. read more

This company provides outstanding, personalized, expert and compassionate service for their clients. We have been using Home Improvements for the Disabled for over ten years, and have relied on Sal and his staff for many special needs projects. From the 10 manual wheelchairs he has either rebuilt or help us purchase for reasonable prices after they were destroyed by various airlines, to the emergency purchase of a heavy-weight scooter for my husband after our medical insurance said we would not get one until he finished his chemotherapy in several months, Sal has come through for us. He even adjusted the internal seating in our accessible van so that I can use my powerchair and have room for the scooter! read more

If you are in the market looking for a scooter look no further. Sal is the best. Been in business many years, repairs the product, sells and most of all is Honest! I had a 4 + year old Golden scooter. The back in was making a very loud noise . Got Sal's number from a dealer I bought from years ago. Best decision I made. Talk to Sal for about 30 minutes an I knew right there I was going to either fix the current scooter or buy new. Made an appointment, Last Monday. Took my old scooter to him and he tested to see what was wrong. Well, Golden Mobility no longer makes these parts, however we could do an upgrade. Great, how much? Well because you can't buy these parts you will need the axle, motor and computer which is about $850 plus Labor, an if batteries are bad add another $400. I ended up trading my old scooter in, bought a New Buzzaround GB149A. Love IT!!! As for Sal, If you are looking for a scooter , look no further! Sal is fair, honest, great salesperson, But more importantly he doesn't push or fill you with a bunch of BS. Sal told me once ordered it takes 5 days. Last Thursday Night Sal calls me and said I have your scooter, can I bring it tonight. I live in Brentwood. About 90 minuter later Sal delivered my new scooter, put it all together, hauled all the trash away an I was very happy guy. I will tell everyone who is looking for a scooter , stop looking just call Sal and see him. He is the Best an I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM!! Thank you Sal! read more

Are you looking for good old fashioned customer service? The kind of person that truly cares about you and meeting your needs? Someone that actually listens to what you're looking for and has the knowledge and experience to find just the perfect fix?? Well SAL is your guy and he's been helping me for years! I've bought scooters from him, canes, batteries, walkers and other items to help me get around and live comfortably at home. The time I was stuck with my old scooter (one that I bought somewhere else), he came to my rescue. He put it in his van, gave me a ride home and delivered it fixed like new just a few days later. Now you tell me. How often do you find kindness and caring like that??? I've been at his place when someone drives up and watched him give them the same consideration. That's SAL. I'd never go anywhere else because I know I can count on him for any handicap needs I may have, excellent service and follow up, and most of all, human caring and kindness. read more

Sal did a great job identifying the problem and fixing my dad's lift sofa chair. I was able to attain the replacement parts from the company since they were still under the 5 year warranty. However, Labor was only included in the warranty for one year. We were fortunate to find Sal and he installed all the problematic parts including the motor quickly and efficiently. Dad is happy again to be back in his favorite chair and caregivers aren't breaking their backs trying to lift him in and out of the sofa chair. Thanks again Sal for all your help! read more

I was looking for a place to have a wheelchair/scooter lift installed in my SUV. The prices at most businesses in the area I had called were prohibitive, and they would not install a used lift since it had not been purchased from them. That was not the case with Sal. He was willing to install a lift I had purchased for a reasonable price, but when I got down to the logistics of how it would be installed, the lift I had gotten wasn't a good match. Sal showed me an alternative lift that would suit my needs, and leave me lots of cargo space which I decided to go ahead and purchase. The combined costs of the used lift I wouldn't need, a brand new lift, and installation was still far below the quotes i had gotten from other places. The work was done professionally and Sal really knows what he's doing. He figured out the best way to put the lift in and modify the floor panel to allow access to the spare tire. I had planned on dropping off the car, discussing how the installation would be done, and then coming back four hours later. Instead I spent the whole day there chatting with Sal and one of his associates and even giving a hand at a few points. Sal is a really great guy and I am happy with the lift and glad I went to him. I would highly recommend. read more

My husband recently purchased a scooter to allow him to get out during the afternoon when his energy was at it lowest. Selecting the correct lift for the car and getting it installed was important. Sal of Home Improvements was able to provide the expertise needed to select the best lift and did a great job of installing it. If you want someone who is trustworthy, efficient, and friendly you couldn't do better than Sal. read more
