Whether you’re looking for a classic cedar fence for your home, ornamental fencing to go around the pool, a Post and rail or chain-link to enclose you're yard, All Quality Fence Co Inc. can meet your needs the way only experienced professionals who have served the New Jersey area since 1964 can.

"So for some context, I received 9 different quotes from 9 different companies and made them all come onsite 2 or more times to walk the fence line, discuss the project, etc. I had exact specifications; for the black chainlink fence, it was 2-1/2" corner and line posts along with 1-5/8" top rail and tension wire along the bottom of the chainlink fence; for the aluminum fence, it was 2-1/2" aluminum posts, along with 4" posts for the gates. So basically, a commercial grade fence for 1.2 acres of land. With all 9 companies, the materials were essentially the same, but when choosing a fencing company, it really comes down to customer service and labor. With regards to customer service for All Quality Fence, you're not just dealing with an estimator, but you're dealing with the owner. I can't tell you how rare that is; out of the 9 companies I received quotes from, I only interacted with the owner for 2 of the companies. Tom was responsive to all inquiries, no matter how mundane, because he's not only a nice guy, but he's also professional. With regards to labor, you want to make sure if they use full-time employees, which All Quality Fence does, since full-time employees (not contractors) are guaranteed fencing professionals. They don't cut corners. They dig 3 ft+ holes for the posts so there's no give after the concrete sets. They move rocks that require 2-3 men to move so the fence line is clear. They decide to upgrade from a 2-1/2" line post to a 3" line post at a 45 degree slope to preserve the integrity of the fence in the long run. Willy, the project manager, did all those things, and he was great to work with. I highly recommend working with All Quality Fence!"

"I moved into this house in Somerset. I am on a wheelchair & the following work had to be done : 1. to manoever my wheelchair they had to remove a small wall by the toilet & move the electricals in the area. 2. Provide a new GFCI outlet & install a new Brondell Swash bidet seat. 3. Install a wheelchair ramp to get into the house on my wheelchair. Without getting the above work done I could not move into the new house. Carlos & his team from ‘Reflections Home Improvement’ not only did an excellent job - but were very empathetic about my condition and completed the projects on the promised date - so that I could move in.

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

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 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.

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.
