"I needed an estimate on a roof repair. I called a few companies to come out and assess how/where water was coming in to the room below. Of the many contractors to come out and assess the estimate, this was the only contractor to put a price on the estimate, costing $250. I am appreciative that the 'team' was able to make it out on the same day that I called, as rain was in the forecast. However, for the 30 minutes, give or take, of time the 'team' was actually here to assess, I did not receive afterward a thorough assessed estimate of the roof itself, of the possibility of any rafters or foundational issues to be addressed. For $250, I expect that kind of assessment in an estimate, especially after bringing the 'team' out. Rather, I got a standard generic estimate for replacing the shingles and plywood, I agree with many other posts I've read about Handyman Pro, they send the 'team' out so that they can later bill you at an hourly rate for each individual on the 'team'. Scandalous!"

Welcome to Toto Crafted Living, where we bring imagination to life! As a proud Army Veteran, I specialize in creating custom spaces for your family to enjoy. My passion is building one-of-a-kind outdoor mud kitchens and dream playgrounds that spark creativity and adventure in children. Beyond the backyard, my services include vibrant murals, precision painting, and all the small odd jobs that make a house a home. No task is too small or too creative. Let's build something wonderful for your family!

"Kyle was EXCELLENT in all aspects of the job; from communication, scheduling and timeliness to craftsmanship and value given, I would (and will) hire him again in a heartbeat for our next home project. It wasn’t in the budget for us to do a full built in outdoor kitchen renovation but we wanted something aesthetically pleasing and functional around our existing grill, and Kyle’s vision did not disappoint. His attention to detail and ability to create very a beautiful, on trend, well-functioning kitchen were top notch. (Note that the empty space to the left is retro-fitted for a Blackstone griddle). We are so happy with our outdoor space! "

Childproofing questions, answered by experts

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

While tamper-resistant outlets are effective at protecting children from the dangerous electrical outlets, few things can be truly childproof. Children may still try to imitate their parents and adults by inserting a plug into the tamper-resistant outlet. Hiding outlets behind childproofing covers is not an effective solution to this, as those covers can be removed or even swallowed. Tamper-resistant outlets are the safest option to keep children safe in your home, but be sure to always keep a close eye on young children around any outlets or electrical 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.

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.

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.
