Striving to be the most competitive family driven company on the market! We specialize in all your Commercial and Residential grounds and property maintenance issues. Plowing, salting, sanding, landscape, handyman, and all kinds of odds and ends around you property!

"AVOID at all costs. We hired Menards Handyman for 4 construction projects inside of one large job. He finished (very poorly) 1 of the 4 projects before we had to hire another contractor to finish. He took shortcuts, was confrontational and underestimated the timeframe for completion by more than 6 weeks. We were left with plywood over an empty window hole, had to replace all plumbing on a bathroom remodel, he never properly insulated pipes (which ended up freezing), easily the worst sheetrocker/mudder/taper I've seen, we have cracks in the ceiling, another ceiling peeling, he never put insulation under siding, improperly ran electrical wires, flooring is pulling apart and knicked a water supply line and left it leaking inside of an interior wall. He Promised a warranty on all work he performed, when confronted with issues, he never returned emails, calls or text. Beware of positive reviews, 2/3's of them are employees or family. Don't repeat our mistake and pay twice for the same work, hire someone else the first time!"

Childproofing services FAQs

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.

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.

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.

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.
