Our happy customers

Tony did my original assessment, he spent so much time ensuring that we had covered all of the issues that could affect the way in which I work. He recommended equipment to help with my position and posture whilst working at the laptop and keyboard etc. The equipment was then delivered by Ryan who had previously sent me a message to confirm delivery date a details. On arrival Ryan confirmed what was being delivered then built/constructed the chair and unpacked all of the equipment and furniture. Ryan was attentive at all times, ensuring that I understood what each item was for and how it was operated.

The home visit assessment was excellent. Harry contacted ahead to confirm his arrival time and keep me updated about his arrival time.Harry’s assessment was very thorough and he explored options to find me the right solution for my needs. The whole process so far has been excellent and I would highly recommend Harry at Remtek.

Remtek does a great service in helping people understand the technology they have been given for their learning. I thoroughly enjoyed every training season I had with my trainer, Lorna. She was patient, understanding, and knowledgeable, which allowed me to apply my software effectively, which helped improve my University work. I highly recommend Remtek to anyone thinking of getting assistive technology.

i really cant put into words how much the ergonomic equipment and software has positively impacted my education. i never knew how a few simple bits of software and ergonomic equipment could really change the game for those with complex disabilities. My software trainer Emily S is an absolute gem! She makes sure every one of my needs are addressed and that i have a thorough understanding of how everything works in order to get the most out of each individual bit of tech. Thank you Thank you THANK YOU!
