I like what I do. Always something different, and always meeting new people. I've been doing plumbing/handyman services for over 35 years, and I still learn something almost every day. My work has carried me all over Virginia, and my customers have always called me for more work when they needed it.\nI like that. If I don't know something, I'll find out, or, I'll pass it on to someone who knows. \n I'm not afraid to bet you'll be happy with whatever I do for you.

"The job came out looking good, but there were some problems...a broken light fixture, (repaced by Matthew) busted water hose nozzle and a busted bed out of MY wheelbarrow. Matthew also required all money before the job was finished, which should not be the case. However, I am happy with the work performed, and Matthew was very personable and easy to work with. He should take a look, though at how he goes about asking for payment in the future, after the job is done."

"I called Torrey on a Saturday morning and received a call back within the hour. I live in Richmond, just talking to Torrey I felt comfortable that he would do everything that I need him to do. He sent me pictures of before the work and after. Excellent service."

"From a craftsmanship standpoint, Jonathan did an outstanding job. The quote we received for the work was fair, and the project was completed to our satisfaction. Jonathan was easy to get along with and kept us updated with progress and changes as they happened. There were materials, tools, and supplies that he didn't have, that he either had to stop and get, or borrow from us, in order to complete the job. This contributed to the project taking three days to complete, rather than two. And at the end of the project, there was still cleanup that we needed to remind him to do before leaving. We would recommend Jonathan for this kind of work, and would call him again if we have similar projects in the future."

"I had just one block of a fence which was slanted, and the nails had come off, and it had to be repaired. The first time I had an appointment, this company didn't show up at all that day, and called me another day. However, I agreed and they came over. The owner was definitely trying to make a quick buck, and initially quoted $450 for that fence. I told him that is too much. Then he came down to $350, and I eventually ended up paying $300, which he did it JUST because it was me. His 2 men came, and they were done in 10 minutes to take out the old nails and used their pneumatic gun to shoot new nails into the fence. The job itself was well done, and I have no complaints about that. Had I known it was a 10 minute job, I would have bargained more. However, I was left wondering why did he charge me $300 for a job that takes 10 minutes. But where is the ethics?"

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.

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.

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.
