Please Contact Me by email at [email protected] or through the contact link at my website www.phalanconstruction.com. Include pictures and a detailed work list for best response. Please understand, I typically work by myself and if I am unable to respond to your email request or phone call within a reasonable time, it is due to prescheduled work. I am interested in your project, and if your to do list is still undone, please re-contact me at a later time. Thanks again, Bob Phalan

"Bob was responsive, prompt, and clear in communications. We originally contacted him regarding a door replacement and then added on a number of other miscellaneous repairs to effectively use his time since we were a further drive for him. Bob helped us purchase the new door, providing advice and guidance on materials and other considerations. Bob clearly takes pride in his work and did not hesitate to take steps that, while adding a little more effort on his part, resulted in a higher quality finished product; there is no question that his work left our home in a better condition than when he started. Bob also gave clear explanations about where his efforts might be wasted, saving time and money now, and providing insight on projects that might be necessary further down the line (even those that would not be within his scope)."

23 years of experience

Established in 2002. Bay State Property Services has over 30 years of combined experience in every phase of property build, repair, maintain, and service activity. We've seen it all - and we want to provide the benefit of our experience so that you can get the most from your home, residential, commercial, or investment property. In our experience, every structure is unique, with countless "quirks" stemming from the original build, and the repairs and modifications done since. In essence, every building has its own "personality," and benefits from someone who knows it well - from the basement up to the roof. Unlike many fly-by-night handyman services or contractors, Bay State Property Services' goal is to study your property so that from every repair or update we learn something about what to anticipate in the future - and to reduce the extra cost and delays of guesswork. That is why we seek to build long-term relationships with you and your properties.

We help families throughout New England childproof their swimming pools. With over 25 years of experience in the child safety industry, we install the Protect-A-Child Pool Fence because we believe it offers the best in safety, quality and construction. We take our work very seriously and our client relationships go much deeper than simply making a sale. We pride ourselves in our exceptional customer service. You can feel peace of mind knowing that we’ll be there for you from the first call through the completed installation.

"I had considered trying to do this job myself (well having my step-father do it), but after seeing a video review of the strength of the various "DIY" polls vs. the Protect-A-Child fence I decided to try and find a vendor to install it. I came across Susan and Jeff and am so happy that I did. They were really easy to communicate with, and offered some great suggestions that ended up changing the way we wanted to have the fence configured. Jeff came and had it installed in a half day, connecting up against an existing fence. Really happy we went with this company, any extra money over what a DIY version would have cost was certainly saved in stress and time."

Childproofing services FAQs

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.

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 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.

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.
