"A friend recommended Edgar and his crew after I saw what a good job they did remodeling my friends two bathrooms. We only use Edgar now for all our home projects. He has remodeled two of our bathrooms, installed vinyl flooring, canned lights, ceiling fans, stair balusters, he's done plumbing for us, he's done fascia painting, he pretty much does it all. His work is top-notch. His pricing is very fair. He and crew are always on time finishing the project but also showing up in the morning. He's responsive the phone calls and texts. Highly highly recommended. I tell everyone to use Edgar and crew for any of their home repairs or upgrades."

"Excellent Service! Jessy did an outstanding job fixing the leak we had. He was professional, knowledgeable, and got the issue taken care of quickly. He made sure everything was working properly before leaving. I really appreciate his hard work and attention to detail. Highly recommend Jessy to anyone looking for reliable and professional service!"

Customers say: True professional

"We hired McCormick to remodel our master bathroom, and the process couldn’t have been smoother. Khaled guided us through everything, and his team was skilled and respectful. They handled the job efficiently, stayed within budget, and kept our home tidy. Now, our bathroom feels like a relaxing oasis, with high-quality finishes and a modern touch we love. McCormick’s attention to detail really made the difference, and I’d gladly hire them for future remodels. This experience was everything we hoped for."

"SD Assembly Pros / Steve Lawrence is an exceptional contractor. We have several rental properties in the San Diego area that Steve has helped us with, and he just finished a full rehab on our 2bed / 2bath condo in Santee that was severely water damaged. This project included replacing the bath: tub; shower door; walls; ceiling; plumbing; and tile, and all the interior doors / casings, plus painting and various handyman services - the place has never looked this good! And Steve?s communication is absolutely the best, he talked us through the whole process, step-by-step, even suggesting design choices (which we readily accepted) and he regularly texted progress videos. This was particularly reassuring for us as we live in North Carolina. SD Assembly Pros / Steve Lawrence is the best."

"This is the second time I’ve booked with Zabi & he has been amazing. The reason we booked him this time was because of his great first impression last time! He will always be who we call for any home needs. He has now built us a dresser, mounted a tv and built and mounted a wall shelf to go under a tv. The whole time he’s here working he is super friendly and helpful & very attentive to detail as well as making sure you are involved in the process to ensure you like the final product. Highly recommend booking him! He also loves animals, even has his own dog who is super cute that he has in his truck!"

Childproofing questions, answered by experts

Many parents, especially first-time parents, agree that professional childproofing is worth it. These professional childproofing services are trained to recognize dangerous home situations that many people would overlook until it's too late. Furthermore, professional childproofing experts have access to top-of-the-line equipment you can't purchase at most stores, providing longevity and peace of mind.

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.

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

The best time to hire a childproofing professional is at least three months before your due date. Although it might seem early, proper childproofing takes time, especially if you need extensive services like a pool fence. Getting your house ready now before your child is on the go only helps to protect them at all stages of life.
