"I hired Danny to install a wood enclosure for a large trash bin. He and his crew provided excellent service during the planning and execution of the project. I was especially appreciative of Danny responsiveness to my numerous questions and requests for adjustments to the project. He also offered ideas to workaround certain problem areas. The installation was executed efficiently and smoothly (the crew was hardworking and polite) - and I am very pleased with the result. I will use their service again and highly recommend them."

"Jordan & Enmi (Husband & Wife team), were prompt, professional and very courteous. They came to remove a large tree branch, all its debris and clean up. Here are some before and after pics. They did an awesome job, and the estimate was extremely fair, & well within or below my budget. I have already hired them to repair/replace the fence damage. On to shed damage next, which I am almost positive I will be having them do as well. On step at a time."

"Great job, quick, responsive and able to accommodate a few additional requests onsite. We had a hammock chair that needed to be hung from the ceiling without the proper hardware and Vladimir was able to make it work with some tools from his truck. I definitely recommend and will hire him again."

"What started as a simple request for a repair of wood rotted front entry elements- evolved to tackle other item’s on my gorgoteen “hone do list”! The overall quality of work, professional management of the small project drove us to replace a wooden shed, and then power-wash and treat our large wooden deck. Value for money, efficient with solutions and the overall quality are the reasons we expanded services rendered. Strongly recommend Mariano for a quality .improvement that keeps your investment safe and sound."

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.

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.

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.

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 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.
