"NO STARS! I will never hire him again. He's a liar and he seriously overcharges. I told him about our drafty exterior office door and how I was told by another contractor friend whom I trust that the door frame needed to be replaced. But Jack of All Trades guy said it only needed weather stripping, told us he brought some with him, and asked if we wanted him to install it. We said yes but now wish we hadn't. He charged us $60 for 19 feet of weather stripping, the simple sticky-sided kind, that I now know only costs $31 for a 60-foot roll on Amazon. He said it costs him $20 per strip. I now know it doesn't come in strips--it comes in rolls. AND OUR DOOR IS STILL DRAFTY! He also charged us $100 for driving to our house, which is less than a 30 minute a drive for him. All of this is especially terrible behavior given the state of the economy right now with the majority of people dealing financial troubles, and this ******* came in and screwed us over BIG TIME! Don't hire him! "

We have been in business for 9 years in the State of Maine. Additional DBA - MJ Bouton Contracting LLC.

"/10 do not recommend. He came in and tiled my shower room. When we contacted our contractor who hired this guy because of concerns we had, Matt blamed everyone else except himself for the poor craftsmanship. A second opinion was sent by our contractor after Matt refused to replace certain things, even under the warranty, and there were numerous concerns and red flags. Those include not sealing the grout so it’s chipping away, messy grouting and caulking, missing trim, significant pudding and standing water and the list goes in. See pictures. If we wanted a 12x12 pattern we would have gotten 12x12 tiles This doesn’t even include my kitchen backsplash that he also didn’t seal. . Poor communication. Poor craftsmanship."

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.

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.

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

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.
