Why Basingstoke care homes choose CareSure
We work specifically with care homes and understand what matters — clear paperwork, minimal disruption, and engineers your staff can trust around residents.
Prompt callout response
When lifting equipment fails in a care home, you need a fast, safe resolution. We prioritise urgent callouts and aim to reach you the same day or next working day wherever possible.
Honest fault reporting
We explain every fault clearly — on the day and in writing — so you understand what failed, why, and what the options are. No jargon, no surprises.
Combined inspection & repair
A callout visit can double as a LOLER thorough examination — saving you a separate appointment and meaning equipment leaves our engineer's hands certified and fit for use.
LOLER inspection questions — Basingstoke
Common questions from care home managers and maintenance leads in the Basingstoke area.
How quickly can you respond to a hoist fault in Basingstoke?
Call us on 0330 133 5131 and we will discuss the situation and arrange a visit as quickly as possible. We understand that a failed hoist can directly affect resident care, and we treat fault calls accordingly.
Do you cover all of Basingstoke and the surrounding North Hampshire area?
Yes. We cover Basingstoke and nearby towns including Hook, Fleet, Andover, Tadley, Whitchurch, and Overton. North Hampshire is a regular part of our service coverage.
We have several care homes in the area. Can you manage them all?
Yes. We can coordinate inspections and servicing across multiple sites on a schedule that suits your operations. This typically reduces admin and helps you keep all certificates current without gaps.
What does your callout process look like?
Contact us by phone or email to describe the fault. We assess whether the equipment should be withdrawn from use immediately and advise clearly. After the repair, you receive a written record of what was found, what was done, and any outstanding recommendations.
How long does a LOLER inspection typically take?
A thorough examination for a single mobile hoist typically takes 30 to 60 minutes. For slings and accessories, allow a few minutes per item. If you have a full equipment list, we can give you a more accurate estimate before we visit.
