"Nick Keech at Granite Shield was awesome to work with. He got my steps and railings done to meet insurance requirements and the brush and tree clearing made a huge difference—my yard feels so much brighter. Fair pricing, great work, and super easy to deal with. Definitely exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend!"

"TnT built our new construction small home, including framing, siding, roofing, insulation, drywall, tile work, cabinet installation, and other miscellaneous items. Their coordination with other subcontractors' schedules (plumbing, electric, garage door installers, etc) was impeccable. Their attention to detail and eye for material usage was very wallet-friendly (and eco-friendly, too!) Their years of experience and knowledge were also very helpful in helping us make certain decisions along the way. Overall, TnT was extremely knowledgeable, fast, considerate, and have us high-quality work and results."

With nearly 20 years of experience in the construction industry and a background in Mechanical Engineering Technology, I bring hands-on experience, technical problem-solving, and a strong attention to detail to every project. Based in New Hampshire, I serve homeowners throughout the area and am willing to travel for projects where my expertise can make a difference. My experience includes construction, repairs, installations, equipment maintenance, project coordination, and real estate, giving me a broad understanding of how homes and properties work as a whole. Most importantly, I believe in doing quality work, communicating honestly, and recommending only what a customer actually needs—my goal is to become the person you can trust to solve the problem, whether it's a small household project or ongoing property care

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.

Yes, tamper-resistant outlets are a safe and effective way to protect children from electrical hazards. They feature a spring-loaded shutter that blocks the outlet slots when not in use, preventing a child from inserting foreign objects. While they are the safest option available, it's important to note that few things can be considered truly 'childproof.' Children may still try to imitate adults by inserting a plug, so constant supervision around any electrical device is recommended. Tamper-resistant outlets are a much safer solution than childproofing covers, which can be removed by children and may pose a choking hazard.

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.
