"I can't believe I didn't write a review for Herman until now but a couple years ago, Mr. Herman replaced my siding on my entire house, repaired wood rot that he found along the way, installed new columns on my porch, installed a new window in my bathroom and more. He was very professional, meticulous and detailed into reviewing his charges. He was fairly priced and his work is of excellent quality. My siding withstood Hurricane Laura winds in Lafayette and still looks great."

"My wife had to have surgery on her leg and was not able to keep our home up to her normal standards. She was laid up in bed and worried about the chores not getting done. I came across Philips Handyman Services originally needing some small repairs and saw that he also offer maid services. So I gave him a call and he was very knowledgeable on the repairs I needed and also informed me that he could get the house back neat and clean again. He and his wife came through and did an amazing job for a very reasonable price. My wife was very pleased with what all had gotten accomplished while she was laid up in bed. I can't say enough about how grateful I was during a very stressful time in my life."

Childproofing questions, answered by experts

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

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.

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.
