Hi! My name is Donovan Lulis. I am 26 years old and have been a carpenter building custom homes back in the Midwest for 5 years. I’ve moved out to the St. George Area recently and ready to put my skills to work out here. I work full time M-F so I do my work on nights and weekends. I am efficient, reliable, and very communicative. I like to keep everything very transparent and put out great work!

"David gave us a few tips on how to prepare for this project giving us an estimate - which was very reasonable. When it came to do the actual job David punctual or called to let us know when to expect him. Work was first rate, clean up went smoothly, and we love our new Master. Should have done this sooner. Price was right! And the quality great! Thank You."

"Mark did an exceptional job on our deck. He cut every joint perfectly to fit around our rock wall. He honored his original bid price even though it took longer than expected. The best part is he showed up when he said he would, and communicated if he couldn't make it in. That's unfortunately rare to find in a contractor in my experience. I definitely recommend him."

Childproofing questions, answered by experts

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.

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

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.

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.
