"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."

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."

"Morris arrived on time to repair the bottom track runner on the frame of my retractable screen door on one of the hottest days lately when I needed ventilation the most!!! Morris had me sorted and solved quickly and as i observed his repair i learned how i might (perhaps) do a DIY fix. Morris is so good, he might put himself out of business, but I hope not!!!"

Childproofing questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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

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.

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.
