"Hire My Husband did a great job! We had the acoustic ceiling removed, textured and painted in our living room which has high ceilings, our kitchen, dining area, home office and hallway. It made the house feel refreshed throughout. The Hire My Husband team covered the walls with plastic to limit the ceiling material from going everywhere and picked up everyday they were here which was nice as this is a messy job. Jason and Justin were polite and professional and wore masks as the interior mask mandate was in place when we started this job. I also wanted to add how flexible their team was as my husband works from home several days a week and they were able to work around several important zoom meetings he had. A huge THANK YOU to Dawson, Allison, Jason and Justin for helping us transform our home."

"After dealing with frequent roof repairs, we finally decided on a complete replacement for our Livermore home. Avi kept us informed every step of the way, and the finished roof exceeded our expectations. It's made a noticeable difference during hot summer days."

"Generally, I refrain from writing reviews for companies unless they perform their work beyond my expectations, Kastamamanov Construction happens to be one of those companies. Aleksandar Kastamanov and his son Aleks are both Perfectionists and men of good character they both demonstrate a willingness to work with you to address any concerns that arise during the project, they do quality work at a very competitive price, they are easy to work with, *accommodating and go beyond basic requirements for the sake of quality, safety, and stability. During the inspection the county inspector kept saying things like,* good job and most guys do not take the time to do that , referring to the qualify work they had done. They both demonstrate attention to details and invite input of ideas to see that you are happy with their work. This deck that Aleks replaced for me I built 50 years ago so I know what it takes to build a structure that will last through many years of use. Well, having watched their work from beginning to end I can tell you that Aleksander and Aleks have constructed a beautiful deck for us that is built to last for many many years. Attention to detail started when demolition began and lasted throughout the project until the final strand of stainless steel railing was installed. If you want a new deck or an old deck replaced there is a lot of contractors to choose from around but, if you want your project done right, done beyond the bare minimum required according to your City and County permits, and built at a very and competitive price, Kastamanov construction is the company for you. Aleksandar and his son Aleks are both men of integrity and good character, they are both easy to work with skilled and knowledgeable. Any future projects that I have, both interior and exterior will include a prejudiced request for a bid from Kastamanov construction."

Childproofing questions, answered by experts

Yes, tamper-resistant outlets are a safe and effective way to protect children from electrical hazards. They feature a spring-loaded shutter that blocks the outlet slots when not in use, preventing a child from inserting foreign objects. While they are the safest option available, it's important to note that few things can be considered truly 'childproof.' Children may still try to imitate adults by inserting a plug, so constant supervision around any electrical device is recommended. Tamper-resistant outlets are a much safer solution than childproofing covers, which can be removed by children and may pose a choking hazard.

Yes, tamper-resistant outlets are designed to be safe for use in homes with children. They feature a spring-loaded shutter that blocks the electrical slots when not in use, which helps protect children from electric shock if they try to insert an object. While they are the safest option available and highly effective, it's important to note that few things are truly 'childproof.' Children may still try to imitate adults by inserting a plug. For this reason, it's best to use tamper-resistant outlets over less effective solutions like plastic covers, which can be removed or pose a choking hazard. Always supervise young children around any electrical outlets or devices.

In many cases, you can DIY home childproofing with success. You can purchase childproofing tools like cabinet locks, outlet covers, and table-edge guards and install them easily. 

However, it's best to have a professional childproofing service work on larger projects like pool safety or furniture anchoring. These safety measures can take a lot of time and effort to DIY, plus, you want to ensure the tasks are done correctly to keep your child safe.

The average cost of childproofing services is $410. This cost can range from $190 to $630 or more, depending on the size of your home and what services you need. 

The location of the childproofing additions also plays a vital role in the overall cost. For example, a bathroom is relatively small and costs about $150 to fully childproof. However, if you have a swimming pool, you could spend as much as $1,500 to $10,000 to make it entirely safe for small children, including adding a pool fence.

A professional childproofer will first survey your home to identify potentially dangerous locations, including stairs, cabinets, and pools. Once approved, your professional will order and install the safety equipment for you. 

Some ways a childproofing professional will make your home safe include:

  • Anchoring large furniture 

  • Installing safety gates

  • Installing safety latches on cabinets and drawers 

  • Covering railings that could trap a child

  • Covering electrical outlets 

  • Installing a swimming pool fence

  • Removing or covering electrical cords where possible
